Based on the incorrect grammar I'm not sure if you mean the hole in the guitar or the whole body of the guitar. However, the guitar needs the top of the guitar to produce the vibrations, the body to channel the vibrations and the hole in the top to let the vibrations out. That's why it is louder when the hole is facing you than if the hole is facing away from you.
