Question:
If one forgets to bend or bow down, bends or bows down for too long or too short, repeats the words (like in a song), makes other sounds that were in a song during davening or bentching, do you have to say Baruch Shem or repeat the words or the Bracha, etc?
Answer:
Hello,
Mistakes in bowing will not invalidate your bracha. Making sounds will also not invalidate it. Repeating the words is questionable, and you would not have to repeat the bracha.
Best wishes
