mask muffle

something for the history books! , and the curse of older types concerned with the status of their hearing !

speaking through one's 'pollutant' mask, and having speech clarity muddled , (BIG TIME ! , obliviously) listener goes: HUH ?? , could you repeat that ?

it should be noted that asians have been wearing masks for YEARS !! (SOME mask materials MUST transfer sound better than OTHERS !!)

what'd she say ? , not sure! ; mask muffle !

i had to ask the scheduler to repeat, repeatedly, thanks to mask muffle !

thought i was going deaf until she took her mask off !
