Frederica's hearing is fine, but she is planning to wear a hearing aid. How come?? | ||

|
a 'typical' hearing aid, or simply a device to aid in hearing? | ||
| Tim A. Dowd (Bodo)
|
She is planning to wear it in the immediate future? At some future date? Any kind of congenital hearing issue relevant? Occupational situation? Is she a model? Does she have a particularly-shaped-or-sized ear and thus is a good candidate for testing the fit of hearing aids? Will it be a functional hearing aid? | ||

Will she have it switched on? Will she be wearing it in her ear in the usual way? Will she be trying to listen to something very quiet? Does she expect to experience a sudden loss of hearing? | ||

Is she trying to fool someone? Is her job relevant? The time period? The location? | ||

Is Frederica an actress? | ||

|
is somebody else deaf ? are they "averse" to having a hearing aid ? Is Frederica trying to demonstrate how small they are ? | ||

|
Is she using it as an earplug instead? | ||

Will it be used to pick up transmitted words or messages that only she will be able to hear? | ||

Is her age relevant? Does she like the way they look? Is/are there (a) relevant third party/parties? Is she trying to cause hearing loss in herself? Has her hearing always been fine? | ||

Is she trying to listen in on something? does she want someone to think she is deaf? does she want to hear something very faint? | ||

will the hearing aid serve a function reguarding hearing improvement? is her sex relevant? is she doing this in order to obtain something? to obtain information? will the hearing aid serve a helpful function in her goal? does she have a goal? is the hearing aid central to her goal? will she be using anything else? will she be wearing it for an hour? two hours? three hours? more? less? is she competant? is her age relevant? | ||

Nimue - very good puzzle. Got me thinking! 1) Is she trying to listen to two noises at the same time? 2) Is she trying to pick up distinctive noises that are inaudible to the human ear? Z | ||

Ah rats there goes my brilliant theory that Frederica was an actress and would be playing a character who wore a hearing aid in the next play she did! | ||

My son has a different slant on the matter .... does "Frederica's hearing is fine" refer to a court hearing? Z | ||

Is she doing it for the same reason some people cut off their hair to support people undergoing chemotherapy? |
