itttt it's playing both simultaneously. Yanny is higher and easier for younger ears to hear. Laurel is lower and easier for older ears to hear. Change the treble/bass and you'll hear both clearly.
" So he sent it to a friend who created an Instagram poll, which began going viral early this week. One detail may frustrate some and vindicate others: he found the original clip on the vocabulary.com page for “laurel,” the word for a wreath worn on the head, “usually a symbol of victory.” "
This helps explain it in a very easy to understand way by adjusting bass levels. Listen to it, then listen to the original. You may be able to hear either at will.
first listen on iphone sitting outside: Yanny, plain as day second listen on iphone, sitting inside: Laurel, plain as day third listen on iphone, back outside: Laurel back inside home on PC: Laurel back inside home iphone: Laurel back inside home on ipad: Laurel that was all yesterday today on ipad: Yanny today on PC: Yanny today on iphone: Laurel just now on PC via your post: Yanny then a few minutes later on PC via your post: Laurel
What are they trying to cover up? The last time this happened, with the gold dress, the CIA torture report had just been released and the stupid blue/gold dress questions pushed it out of the public conversation.
What is it this time? Probably Israel killing Palestinians? What else could it be?
I only hear Laurel. My son hears Yanny. Apparently, both words are being said at the same time but on different frequencies. A couple of folks on here need to take a chill pill and lighten up.
My sister’s wedding was so emotional, even the cake was in tiers.
ReplyDeleteI hear both
ReplyDeleteYanny.
ReplyDeleteI also didn't realize you were posting "Reader Your Turns"
ReplyDeleteWhat is this? I'm listening to something more interesting and not turning it off to listen to whatever this is.

ReplyDeleteIt's blue and black not gold and white.
ReplyDeleteYes it's laurel and the dress is blue, we used to say people who couldn't perceive reality were wrong.
ReplyDeleteThat was pre-2016.
DeleteI can't hear Laurel at all. Only Yanny.
ReplyDeleteYanny
ReplyDeleteCrazy. Laurel, 1000%.
ReplyDeleteWHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE HEARING "LAUREL". SERIOUSLY, GET YOUR HEARING/BRAIN FUNCTION CHECKED. Maybe an MRI.
ReplyDeleteIt's saying YANNY. Where is there ANY "L" sound let alone two of them? Never mind the "A" as in "apple", not "aw" as in "awful".
Yanny.

ReplyDeleteInteresting. I clearly heard Yanny earlier today when I listened to this, but just now it was absolutely Laurel.
ReplyDeleteYanny This is the auditory unicorn of words.
ReplyDeleteUse this tool to hear what you're not hearing. I hear is "Laurel", and with the slider pushed all the way to the right, I still hear "Yarry".
ReplyDeletehttps://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/05/16/upshot/audio-clip-yanny-laurel-debate.html
I heard nothing BUT Yanni when it was on the news today, now I hear Laurel.
ReplyDeleteOn the radio this morning I clearly heard "Laurel" (lower pitched)
ReplyDeleteOn my iphone from Facebook an hour ago I CLEARLY heard "Yanny" (higher pitched)
Now I'm on my laptop and it is clearly "Laurel" (lower pitched)
I think the speakers have a major part to do with it.
It is both. Which you hear depends on what frequencies your ears are more attuned/sensitive too.
ReplyDeleteImagine a color blind person and someone with normal vision looking at the same piece of multicolored art...
Perception is in the mind.
iPhone: Yanny
ReplyDeleteiPad: Yanny
Desktop: Yanny
I heard Laurel on my samsung phone, walked over to my husband and hit play and he heard Yanny.
ReplyDeleteI can't help but wonder if this also affects what music we like.
I heard laurel yesterday, was on 2 hours sleep. This morning, after sleeping 10 hours, I hear yanni.
ReplyDeleteAnd that's listening on my phone and both time.
DeleteAnd now its night time and it is Laurel again.
DeleteThis makes you wonder...what else do we perceive so differently from each other? colors?
ReplyDeleteHas this been changed? I got Laurel yesterday and today yanni (or yammy) @Green Tea Same except last night was sleepless for me!
ReplyDeleteHi Sal
DeleteI thought maybe being tired vs rested may have been a factor. But I'm back to hearing Laurel...so what do I know.
Yarry ??!!
