Participants were asked to listen to 40 short English speech samples, half of which contained grammatical errors against articles (e.g., a/an, the).

Trouble understanding, but your hearing checks out fine. What’s at play?

How We Process Information

மரபுக் கவிதைகளின் இலக்கணச் சட்டகங்கள் வார்த்தைகளின் விரயங்களுக்குக் காரணமாக இருப்பதைச் சொன்னார். இரண்டு அடிகளும் ஏழு வார்த்தைகளுமே கொண்ட திருக்குறளில்கூட, வார்த்தைகள் அவசியமற்று நிரப்பப்பட்டிருக்கிறது என்றார். ‘செல்வத்துள் செல்வம் செவிச்செல்வம் அச்செல்வம் / செல்வத்துள் எல்லாம் தலை’ என்ற குறளில் செல்வத்துள் செல்வம் செவிச்செல்வம் என்ற முதல் மூன்று வார்த்தைகளிலேயே முடிந்துவிடும் பாடுபொருள், எப்படி அவசியமற்று நீள்கிறது என்று சுட்டிக்காட்டினார்.

In fact, noise doesn’t just cause hearing loss; it can reveal it

Whether they struggle to hear because of an audiological condition or an acoustically unfriendly classroom space, the effort a teacher expends to hear can cause fatigue, frustration, or a lack of concentration. Studies have shown that such effects can cause people who struggle to hear to withdraw socially, which can negatively impact mental health.

I hope you all will forgive my intrusion as a non-maintainer. Here's a perspective as a user:

Some people believed I argued that object orientation is bad simply because extends has problems, as if the two concepts are equivalent. That's certainly not what I thought I said, so let me clarify some meta-issues.

If you think you’ve conveyed something but the other person hears something completely different, is that their fault or yours? 

From my perspective the onus is on you to consider not just the words coming out of your mouth, but how they are received.

Everyone has their own background and context that they overlay on top of what they hear. It’s our jobs as communicators to consider that perspective and to adjust the way we communicate accordingly. If we do, we stand a better chance of persuading them to agree with our point of view.

People often hear what they think should be said, not the words that are actually spoken. This comes from the tendency of people to think faster than they talk. A listener makes assumptions about what they expect because their minds race ahead. This can be especially problematic when you misinterpret what your boss said. 

Hearing is something most everyone does without even trying. It is a physiological response to sound waves moving through the air at up to 760 miles per hour

What makes public speaking truly effective is when the audience hears and listens

every time we try to do something, within the system … it doesn’t seem to work for us, as Indian people

find new audiences-es

he public sphere has become drmnatically more open to the rhetoric or women and minorities, whose practices, coming from struggles lo get a hearing, have materially marked contem-porary rhetoric

to gain a hearing for themselves.

So, you must arrive at a conviction, and a willingness to commit to that conviction, which allows you to abandon reason for the apparently unreasonable. It is because what we are doing at this moment, you and I, does not compute with your preexisting conditioning that it seems unreasonable and impractical, and will seem so if you do not stay in touch with the unjustifiable claim that I am making—that you and I are together, actively and consciously together, to the degree that you are Hearing me, in the Fourth dimension, in the Kingdom of Heaven, in the middle of Reality, and that it is only by means of this connection and your embrace of the ability to conceive of your being Here with me that you can break through your “amnesia.”

The divine faculties of Conscious Being, which you could call Hearing, Seeing, Tasting, Smelling, et cetera, the direct comprehending of Reality, could be called the vital signs. And right now the one vital sign that is functioning is Hearing. And it is a result of Listening. And that will give you a clue, because if you want to see, then you must look! And how do you look? Well, you want to see. You don’t want to see something in particular, because you don’t know what there is to see. But you want to see. And the “wanting” is the “looking.” And the seeing is what comes, just as Listening brings forth Hearing.
