Question

How can you get hiccups???

Answer 1

A hiccup or hiccough (normally pronounced "HICK-up" IPA: /ˈhɪkəp/), is the spasmodic contraction of the diaphragm that repeats several times per minute. In humans, the abrupt rush of air into the lungs causes the epiglottis to close, creating the "hic" listen (help·info) noise. In medicine, it is known as synchronous diaphragmatic flutter (SDF), or singultus.

The term "hiccup" is also used to describe a small and unrepeated aberration in an otherwise consistent pattern.

A bout of hiccups generally resolves itself without intervention, although many home remedies claim to shorten the duration, and medical treatment is occasionally necessary.

If you wish to give yourself hiccups, then just drink a whole bunch of pop really quickly.
