When a text is presented aurally, how are we processing it?

When a text is presented aurally, we are processing it using our auditory senses. This involves listening to the spoken words, interpreting the meaning conveyed through sound patterns, tone, and inflection, and translating that auditory information into understanding and comprehension. This process relies on our ability to listen, process, and interpret spoken language in real-time, without the visual cues that come with reading written text. This is known as auditory processing, and it involves the use of language comprehension skills, memory, and cognitive processing to make sense of the spoken words that we hear.
