Me neither. First time I read my favourite book (A Wizard of Earthsea) out loud to my son was the moment I realised I had no idea how the main character’s name (Ged) was pronounced. Before that I didn’t even know I didn’t know.

Incidentally, I’ve often wondered if this trait aligns with people who are puzzled by Chomsky’s suggestion that language may have evolved as an instrument of thought rather than communication.

If you don’t have an inner voice, then how do read this without reading out loud?

-
When I read I don't feel any sense of "hearing" what I am reading. I just go straight to the meaning. (The sound is unneeded: the word forms are enough to get to their meaning.) Obviously not rigorous yet: this is just how it feels phenomenologically.

By hearing, do you mean an auditory experience of voice? Or just that words stream along in one's conscious awareness? I have the second, but my understanding is the first is considered hallucination as in schizophrenia. D. Davidson argued we *can't* be thinking w/out the second.

yes, I mean auditory experience of voice. I was surprised to discover that most people experience this, so I don't think it's a symptom of schizophrenia. A schizophrenic perceives *other* people's voices, not their own.

Just to share I have
#aphantasia in all 5 senses [it seems everyone has a possible unique experience] I have never heard a single sound that was created in my mind by my mind
