I can't hear very well in my left ear. An 80% loss, birth defect. In college, I tried a hearing aid. My left ear/right side of the brain couldn't understand. It sounded like the adult voices from Peanuts or Charlie Browns' teacher...Agrrrug buptrra.

However, I don't know how music would work. And if there's anyone else who knows more about this, I'd be interested in knowing as well. |

I'm very familiar with deaf people and their accents. You would not describe them as "American", or any other regional dialect. Deaf people who did not go to schools that were intensive in mainstreaming and heavily focused on oral communication (i.e. schools that utilized sign language instead) generally just have very poor pronunciation skills because they can't repeat a sound they've heard.

They should have played a prank on her. Right when she regains hearing, blare some Justin Bieber right in her ear. She'll be wishing she went back to being deaf in no time.

One of her friends actually made her an 'Introduction to Music' mix tape. The first song she heard was "Imagine".
