How different does your voice sound to others?

Answer 1

You hear your voice as it is transmitted through the bone of your skull and jaw into your hearing, combined with the sound coming through the air. Others only hear what comes through the air. Sound travels through bone differently than air, making your voice sound different to you than to others. Because you are primarily hearing the vibrations made by you vocal cords and the air passing through you mouth rather than the finished sound as another would hear. To hear you true voice you have to record it and play it back.

Answer 2

It depends on the sound of your voice to how others hear it, if its high or low they will hear it slightly lower than you hear it because when you hear it, it's coming directly from you to you. when others hear it it has to travel through the air before they hear it. (can I just say i heard this on the Internet, so I'm not entirely sure it's true, sorry!)

Answer 3

The voice u hear when u talk is partly from the vibrations through ur skull and so the pitch is a bit different.

the recording, as long as its a decent one, is what everybody but u hear, so its always just u who think that the recording is weird.

Answer 4

When you listen to your voice when you are actually speaking it; it reaches your ears via two routes , from the air and from inside your head (ie directly from the larynx). This sound is obviously different from the sound heard only by the part of your voice which reaches your ears through the ear only , ie which is what you hear when you listen to your recorded voice.

Answer 5

When you speak in a record, it is gonna sound different because when played it is a reversal of your own voice. Like when you suck up helium.

Answer 6

because you are tapping your voice-box and when you bang something it makes a different sound and that is what happening to your voice.
