Now to shift the topic, because I have always been curious about this one with others.
Do you hear your own voice or is it someone else's voice inside your head when you read something to yourself?
(I am being serious here, I'm not implying schizophrenia.)
For instance, when I have heard someone else read the story I can sometimes hear that voice in my head instead of my own.
The best example which springs to mind is from the Simpson's 2nd season, first Halloween special, they read a version of "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe. James Earl Jones read narrated (read) "The Raven" whilst Simpsons characters acted out the scenes.
Whenever I have read "The Raven" again, I can almost hear James Earl Jones reading it from the Simpsons.
yesss!! exactly what you said!
i love that poem the raven, ive read it over and over and its always in james earl jones' voice.
or if its a phrase that someone i know always uses, its in their voice or tone.
also if im reading someone elses essay for example, i can hear their voice in my head reading
and in fiction i kind of make up voices for different charactors if its a really good book, and i sometimes even imagine them too
Neat! I wondered if anyone else did this.
I talked about Harry Potter above. I tend to imagine the voices of, Harry, Ginny, Ronald, Hermione et. al. when I was reading their dialogue in the books.
How do you read when your reading to yourself?
