Yanny or Laurel?!

[CaliforniaDream]

AIBU to think that anyone who hears Laurel is playing a practical joke? It's definitely yanny!

I just asked DH and he hears ‘Yuri’. There’s always one

Laurel for me
Tried very hard to hear yanny but no joy.

Another Laurel here. No hint of Yanny whatsoever!

So was yanny when I heard it in the radio. Now it's laurel?

LAUREL?! very clear. Am i broken?
😂

So I just clicked into the link again and it's yanny now. Clearly some sort of trick.

I heard Yanny to start then tried to hear Laurel and I can hear both. The Laurel is in an American accent

Both, more like ‘yarry’ In a nasally voice,
‘Laurel’ in a deeper voice

It's laurel now. Does it change. Wtf

I've tried over and over to hear laurel and I just can't!

I don't have Twitter so cant link but here is an excellent explanation, if you can just search on Twitter?

What does Laurel sound like? I can hear a nasally American accented Yanny. Is Laurel American too?

Only hear Yanny, nothing like Laurel

I've heard laurel now. It's the train announcer who says laurel

Ginger - told you!!

I reckon it's because our minds were working it out. So perhaps at first we heard Laurel because that's an actual recognisable word; then after stewing on it a bit, we were more predisposed to hear yanny...

It's both, depending on the pitch. And depends on your personal settings on whatever you are using to listen.

I hear Balonz, how can anyone hear anything else?

I can only hear Yanny. In listening on my iPhone so wonder if it's missing some of the pitch or depth of sound for Laurel? Is this Laurel pronounced like Worrel or Moral?

I've just asked my 2 year old to repeat it and he said "Yanny". That doesn't help me but is interesting

LOL balonz

Can anyone do a clicking link
I'm on my phone and being driven crazy wondering what you are all on about

I can only hear Laurel. I swear everyone saying yanny is lying 😂

It's now gone back to yanny! Weirdest thing is I recorded it on my phone as yanny to be absolutely sure (what a productive day this is!😂), and when I played back my own recording a few times it was Laurel 😳 Yet just now my recording is yanny again. Surely my own recording on the same device can't trick me?! I'm so confused!

I hear both.

It sounds like yanny in a nasally american accent, something like yeahny. Dh hears yearly.

I can’t get laurel at all. There is nothing anything like an L sound!

If I listen to it withy he tv I’m in the background I hear Yanny. If I listen to it in silence I hear Laurel!
