"Earaches" Natural Recordings by Native Speakers
Earaches refer to a sharp, stabbing, or aching pain in the ear, often caused by an infection, inflammation, or a buildup of wax in the ear canal.
The tympanic membrane, also known as the eardrum, is a thin semitransparent membrane that separates the external ear canal from the middle ear. It vibrates when sound waves reach it and transmits these vibrations to the three tiny bones in the middle ear, which then transmit these vibrations to the inner ear, ultimately allowing us to hear sounds.
Extremely loud or piercingly shrill; causing the ears to shut or feel as if they will split.
Earache refers to a sharp, piercing pain in the ear, usually caused by an infection, inflammation, or another condition affecting the middle or inner ear.
The eardrum, also known as the tympanic membrane, is a thin layer of tissue that separates the outer ear from the middle ear. It plays a crucial role in hearing, as it vibrates when sound waves reach it and transmits these vibrations to the ossicles (three small bones) in the middle ear.
Earflaps refer to the movable flaps or covers that are attached to the top of a hat, such as a beanie or a ushanka, that fit over the ears to protect them from cold or wind. They can also be a feature of some helmets, headbands, or other types of headgear. Earflaps are designed to provide extra warmth and protection for the ears, and are often found in cold-weather clothing or gear.
