Something nice to hear

[Jace]

When talking with a friend...'they' said something to make me smile...

then....'they' said... I can hear you smile!

Never heard that before...have you?

 

[hollydolly]

No can't say I've ever heard that...

 

[JaniceM]

Not me either. That's a new one.

When I was taking a voice actor radio training class the instructor said "put a smile in your voice ". That was good advice. I ended up doing quite a bit of narration of medical training videos, for the U of T schools of medicine. My in was my Wife who was the business manager for one of the schools. JimB. In Toronto.

No, but I think they meant the speaker projected warmth and friendliness while speaking; as if "smiling".

What a nice thing to say!

When I'm on the phone with someone, I can tell when they smile. But maybe only if they do it immediately before or after they say something.

I also studied voice and did free-lance voice-overs for a number of years. In my college speech class, we had to read various things out loud. I read a story about a grocer selling in his market. When I finished, the professor said she could hear the smile in my voice. If you want to "put a smile" in your voice, it helps to actually smile when speaking.
