Tone of Voice

Are you a loud or a low talker? Whatever it is, there’s a good chance you got it from your grandma. The evolution of one’s tone of voice over time is influenced by a complex interplay of genetic and environmental factors. Surprisingly, a significant portion of this influence can be traced back to one’s grandmother’s genes. Hormonal changes that occur during different life stages, leading to shifts in tone of voice, are influenced by genetic information inherited from grandparents.

So, it’s not an exaggeration to say that your tone of voice is, in part, determined by your grandmother’s genetic legacy. Of course, we should note that environmental factors, personal experiences, and even *medication*, as well as other outside factors, can also contribute to changes in tone of voice. This intricate combination of genetic and environmental influences underscores the uniqueness and fluidity of one’s vocal characteristics throughout their life.
