judders
Shakes in jolts
Judders is the third-person singular of judder, meaning to shake or vibrate rapidly and erratically.
The word is chiefly British, describing mechanical vibrations—an engine judders, a car judders to a halt.
It can extend to people: She judders with cold.
The noun judder names the vibration itself: a judder in the steering wheel.
