As you read this, you are subtly moving the muscles in your tongue and throat associated with speaking the same words aloud. This is called subvocalization. It is largely undetectable without the aid of machines, even by the subjects themselves, and impossible to fully repress. Subvocalization is thought to occur in order to reduce cognitive load while reading or thinking, and allows the brain to take in and process information more naturally and more effectively. Since it is possible to detect and interpret these signals electronically, projects are currently underway to create silent forms of communication, where participants need only think about speaking to communicate.
