No, the voice you hear inside your head is not the same as the voice other people hear from you when you speak out loud. Let's break down the differences:
Inner Voice: The voice you hear inside your head, also known as "inner speech" or "inner monologue," is the way you talk to yourself mentally. It's the stream of thoughts and words that occur in your mind when you think, reason, or engage in self-talk. This inner voice is not audible to others and is entirely subjective to you.
External Voice: The voice other people hear from you is the sound produced when you speak out loud. This is the physical manifestation of your speech, and it can be heard by others around you. When you communicate verbally, the sounds generated by your vocal cords are transmitted through the air as sound waves and received by others' ears.
The inner voice and the external voice are distinct phenomena. The inner voice is a private and internal cognitive process, while the external voice is the audible expression of your thoughts and ideas for others to hear.
It's important to note that while your inner voice may share similarities with your external voice, they might not sound exactly the same. Your inner voice might reflect your language, speech patterns, and manner of speaking, but it's influenced by your thoughts and emotions at the moment. On the other hand, your external voice may be affected by various factors such as tone, volume, and clarity based on how you choose to express yourself verbally.
Since the inner voice is only experienced internally, others cannot directly hear or perceive it.
