Rabban Gamliel says:
Every day a person must pray eighteen [blessings of the Amidah].
Rabbi Yehoshua says:
[One may say] an abbreviated [form of the] eighteen [blessings].
Rabbi Akiva says:
If the prayer is fluent in his mouth, he must say eighteen [blessings];
but if it is not -- [he may say] an abbreviated eighteen [because otherwise he may stumble on the words].
