I've wondered whether meaning from heard words is partially decoded through a similar process.
When actively listening to speech sounds, I sort of feel what it would feel like to mimic the words I hear, and this enhances my understanding of the speech. I also find that I often subvocalize the text I read.
It's like the meaning of the words are somewhat connected with the pattern required to voice it.
- sitkack 8y agoIs not speech and language partially the process of replaying thought processes so that the receiver can experience the same path and progression. We don't communicate facts so much as paths through a winding trail of thought. Maybe if our neural networks had a more rigid pattern, the same activation fronts could be copied from person to person, creating cross person feelings and experiences.
