People that read out loud

People that read books out loud...

Whenever i read out loud, i am so focused on pronunciation that my brain does not register a single word, its just trying to sound like an audio book narrator.

[OppenheimerBaba]

As a guy who reads out everything, from novels to academic books, loud, I can approve this is completely relatable ✅😂

[apebblemaster]

Actually, this does kind of help if you are having problems concentrating!

There’s also the fact that it slows your reading way down. Most people can read way faster than they can talk.

I read to myself sometimes. I find it slows me down so I can process things better. It also helps with proofreading things I've written.

I tried reading aloud, couldn't immerse myself at all. A good way to practice speech though; especially if you have social anxiety like I used to have 😊

I read out loud in order to get the characters voices locked down for me, and every time I’m embarrassed and pray my wife and kids don’t walk in on me and make fun of me

[ultravioletron]

At this point I just feel the experience like I'm there, living it. More I read, more details get added. The reality of the events become more vivid.

Reading out loud to oneself is so much fun! I can do voices and accents without making a fool of myself 😂

[slicessenpai]

I do admit that I do read my books out loud as well, although it's always behind closed doors.

I like giving every character their own unique voice 😅

Reading out loud should be practiced in Academic related books, not just in schools but also in college. As there is a need to Set things to memory.

But Novels or any other stuff, even if it's a social media post, should be read in the mind. As it's fast, convenient and doesn't stay for long term. So it's a quick go through.

There are many people in the world who apparently don't have an inner monologue, they literally cannot read/speak words in their head, so they have to kinda just absorb what was written and or read out loud, pretty crazy.

[marianhreads]

Originally reading aloud was the only way people read, eventually some people started reading silently and people thought *they* were weird 😅

[zest_]

I have ADHD. Reading out loud helps me enjoy it for longer periods of time and helps my concentration since my brain is hyperactive and loud.

[aliabul]

For me it is better to read in my head because I will feel more immersed and my head can picture what is happening in the story

[scomedyproductions]

For me, I forget that it is me telling it, and I think someone is reading to me. I find reading aloud to be more enjoyable, and it helps me read faster and better

[Timeless-ts]

I whisper to myself sometimes when I read

[moooooo]

I wonder if people without an internal dialogue read out loud

[BenjaminsBookclub]

Reading outload all the time would give me such a sore dry throat!

[NikoN-xwxy]

I don’t read out loud because I have stupid vocal cords that wear out easily but I do listen to audiobooks while listening at times and sometimes I find that my reading speed is way faster than the narrator but I learn to read at a slower pace because it helps me enjoy the story more. Also I find it interesting that words are pronounce differently too 😂.
