no dude

they signed back and forth to discuss the tattoo

at no point in time was there a picture drawn and looked at by the two people

A translator such as a family member would rule out A, and be as about as tedious to describe/discuss as any other conversation.

This video is such bull****.

The girl has heard her voice before. How else do you think she can speak English clearly? She's had hearing aids before ..

If it's like a novel you read it sort of out loud in your head and hear your own voice and make up your own images of what these characters look like. If it's a novel of a movie you have seen then you sort of hear and see the actors.

when you think of someone you know and you think of something they said you almost 'hear' them saying the words in your head instead of your own voice saying them.


I good deal of my thinking processes involve both 'movies' in my head and my own or other voices I have heard. (no, not like schizophrenic voices)

I was just wondering what it would be like to live in a brain that had never heard a sound and only relied on the other senses to form thoughts.


Better yet...

How do the deaf and blind think? WTF do their thoughts look like?

No to be fair, I have limited experience with this element of linguistic study but random reading in my field has shown that deaf people who have very little experience with sound (ie their own voice) have been shown to be able to produce very accurate approximations of voice through inference.

It varies from person to person, obviously. It's kind of how you get assholes who can just adopt a Spanish accent naturally versus people who study it for years and still sound like white-bread assholes.

It has to do, mainly, with the person's own psychological perception of the language process. I'm high so take all this with a grain of salt, but most people (deaf included) only pick up cues partially, like lip movement, eyes, etc.

Truly "gifted" deaf people are those who from picking it up were able to detect tone, voice level, etc. from not only reading lips and facial expressions but, I don't ****ing know, the throat, vibrations, yadda yadda.

Anyway to end this high rant, the people who are deaf but speak decent-sounding-english are just very, very good (by nature) at their language acquisition, not from training but just from natural cognitive processes.
