kuulde

Kuulde is a term that can refer to several concepts, primarily related to sound and hearing. In the Estonian language, "kuulde" directly translates to "hearing" or "audition." This encompasses the physiological process by which sound waves are perceived by the ear and interpreted by the brain. It is the sense that allows us to detect sound.

Beyond the biological aspect, "kuulde" can also be used to describe the act of listening. This implies a more active engagement with sound, involving attention and comprehension. For example, one might refer to "kuuldeharjutused" as listening exercises.

In a more technical or scientific context, "kuulde" might relate to the field of audiology, which studies hearing and its disorders. This field investigates the mechanisms of hearing, the diagnosis and treatment of hearing loss, and the development of assistive listening devices. The concept of "kuuldeulatus" translates to hearing range, referring to the spectrum of frequencies a particular organism or device can detect.
