Human: Is it true that a snoring partner can cause a person to lose sleep? Assistant: 
Yes, it is true that a snoring partner can cause a person to lose sleep. Snoring is caused by vibration of the soft tissues in the upper airway, and this causes airflow turbulence which can make it difficult for the sleeper to breathe. A sleeping partner's snoring can be very disruptive to the other person's sleep quality and can lead to feelings of frustration and anger.
