Yes, so it seems that you are the way I expected everyone was. The "voice," I recognize as My voice, but it could be different when heard on recording.....but sounds the same to me when I hear my speaking voice through my ears...as Im speaking. This is oddly hard to put in words.Yeah... I would have to say it is a nondescript voice. It is male, even if the person in the book is female. It is adult, even if the person in the book is a child. The syntax, I suppose, is my own. But I would say it does not have the tonal quantities of my voice. Stephen Pinker has some interesting thoughts in his books about language and speech.
A good follow up question would be: What voice does a mute person hear in their head when they think?
But my big question is this: Does your speaking voice sound like the voice you hear in your thoughts? My does not. Like I said above. I was shocked the first time I heard my voice on a recording. Really surprised. I had no idea what I really sounded like! If my voice sounded like my thought voice... I would not have been surprised.
Hmmmm?
In FACT....sometimes when I write posts.....since im reading aloud in my head....i sometimes read the sentence too fast and I miss typing a word......and then have to add the word after a subsequent reading of the sentence!
I would think a mute person would hear a voice with no issue......it is the deaf person whose hearing would puzzle me....
