Nobody else has ever heard your voice the way you hear it. When you talk, you set up sound waves. The air outside your head carries the sound waves to your other ears. But, of course, the sound of your voice begins inside your head. The bones of your head pick up the sound waves, too. They carry the sound waves straight to your inner (里面的) ears. You get the sound from the outside and the inside too. Other people get just the sound waves from the outside you do. | ||||||||||||||||||||
