I don't have a "head voice" I don't hear what I read so no I don't imagine what the poster will sound like either. Interesting.

If it's a post by someone I know I do hear their voice.

OP, I remember a thread of yours a couple of years ago where you guessed what people sound like. Are those the voices you hear?

That's because you don't subvocalise.

It's a cracking skill to have. I've tried to learn how to do it. But it's hard changing the habits of a lifetime.

Yeah subvocalising is saying the words you read in your head.

The alternative is scanning the line for key words and using your imagination to fill in the blanks. This is the skill associated with speed reading.

The majority of people sub vocalise. Some scan instead. The scanners read faster than subvocalisers.

I take in sections of text at once rather than individual words I don't know if I use my imagination I think I actually see all the words but if I want to read something very quickly and the tone rather than literal meaning of it is all I want I do just read the first and last words of the sentences. I honestly thought everyone did this

"Lickety ..so far your the only person in this thread who has heard my voice...Sassy just sent me a youtube clip of joey Essex..do you think i sound like him?...in your opinion?.."

I don't know what Joey Essex sounds like. I am only vaguely aware he is a TOWIE person because of something on the forum last year.

You don't have an Essex twang to your voice.

I have colour sense with taste. Asparagus is entirely the wrong colour green for its taste and I can't eat it.

fascinating stuff, its the way our brains are wired I suppose. Your name is an oblong very pale colour sort of green

I wonder if my real name would be the same shape and colour?

No probably not, it hasn't been with people I've met from here and if friends get married there married name is a different colour and shape to their maiden name.

You synesthetes are supposed to be concept people, good at ideas as you are able to sense the world in such multifaceted ways.

When you read books and there is a convo, do you imagine what their voices would be like?

Actually I do. Gollum, for instance, always sounded Welsh when I read The Hobbit (just imagine 'what has he got in his pockets' in a Welsh sibilant voice and that's pretty much what I heard). I was disappointed they gave him a different voice in the movies.

Is the same name the same color no matter who it is? My name is Kelly. Does it look different when spelled differently too? Like kelli, kellie, kelley.... I never heard of this and I think it is very fascinating and unique.

There's no voice when I read, or maybe it's my voice so I don't notice. I can read fast but I read all the words.

The spelling affects the sensation of the word but if I only heard it instead of reading it it doesn't. So Kelly to me is like a dark blue ink blot but Kelli is a pink circle. If I see a person before I know their name I associate them with a different sensation to their name

My 'head voice' doesn't really have an accent.

Mind you - neither do I really. But if I could choose one it would be a Morgan Freeman/James Earl Jones style voice.

It would be like having a voice over man reading threads for you!

So I went back and questioned myself as I read this thread and I've realised you all sound like me - doing an impression of what I think you'd sound like!

Oddly I notice I do the same for men or women regardless! Never thought if it before really. Lol.

I thought we all had head voices - trying to workout how you can read without your voice reading it to you.

If there is something particular about a person, like where they come from or how they dress then I'll do a voice to match; so, a welsh accent (if from Wales) or a posh accent (if there picture shows them in a ball gown or something similar).

Cellerbrate the voices in your head (unless they are nutty - in which case, see a doctor)
