Fair point. I reworded my reply. It's not that I can't explain it. It's that I don't believe he or should would understand the explanation. I couldn't explain the sound of a hiss to a person who was born deaf; not because I don't know what a hiss sounds like but because that deaf person doesn't have a frame of reference to understand my explanation.
