Until today, I didn&#x27;t know one could read a text without the internal monologue voicing it as well. I certainly can&#x27;t. It also seems to explain why I&#x27;m a slow reader and why I tend to retain with precision, text that I&#x27;ve only read once. Definitely helps with understanding tech specs and manuals. And also why I dislike reading fiction because I find the language too verbose and inefficient.<p>But I don&#x27;t actually <i>hear</i> a voice when reading and hence no detectable accents or tone. However, if I try to remember a line from a movie or a visual, like a scene, I can actually hear and see it, as if temporarily my brain routes my memories through my visual and auditory path, and sometimes it&#x27;s unsettling even though I&#x27;m expecting it. As for the visual, I seem to have two distinct sense of vision, one from my eyes, and the other one that is so called the &quot;mind&#x27;s eye&quot;. For me, it lacks color and even shades.<p>As for remembering things, I can instantly tell a movie by a <i>single frame</i> of it even if I&#x27;ve watched it once and I&#x27;m yet to come across someone who can do that.
