I am late to the party here, but can I put in a pitch for OMG I want to hear both of these voices please DGE? maybe you could just do a dramatic reading???
ppppplllllleeeeeaaassssseeeeee????????
I know that I have at least 4 voices. My regular conversational voice which I am told sounds middle america - not strongly accented (though I am a bit of a sponge, in that I will start to talk like those around me when I am around folks with strong regional accents - I do this subconsciously)...and with a rather large vocabulary that conveys a level of education.
I have what the people I work with call my "gravitas voice" - I especially use this on the phone, but can use this voice in person too, when I am bringing all of my professional expertise to bear and it conveys a sense of suffering no fools and I have been known to have scare the begeesus out of people with this voice.
I have the voice I use to talk to my dog - which is not too far from the one I use to talk to very small children. It is not a goofy baby voice, but it is a voice of handling those that are not adults.
And I have my sexy submissive voice... the one I use with my lover....when I am not in control. It certainly has a totally different quality than the others. And has nothing to do with the voice that seeks directions at the gas station or gives a patient bad news.
Yes. I have all these, too.
More LI, less Middle American- meaning, I pronounce "sawsage" correctly.
Gravitas voice is also known as Mom voice, in some cases, although Mom voice tends to be drier as one's Kids get older.
