my accord dies after a period of use per day. if i’m constantly moving
at a nice normal speed, the engine doesn’t die. when i stop, put the
gear into reverse or back into drive, it might die. i do put it in
neutral at stops which prevents it from dying. what is wrong with my
car?

Your throttle body could be dirty, causing your base idle speed to be wrong.
I'd clean the throttle body and check the base idle speed.
