声こえにならない

expression, i-adjective

unable to speak (from emotion); soundless; mute

Describes a state where overwhelming emotion (joy, sorrow, shock) makes one unable to produce words or voice. Often used in literary or expressive contexts. The 'soundless' and 'mute' glosses are less common and usually refer to a voiceless cry or scream.

• 感かん動どうで声こえにならない叫さけびをあげた。

  I let out a voiceless cry from being so moved.

• 彼かの女じょは悲かなしみのあまり声こえにならない声こえでつぶやいた。

  She murmured in a voice that was barely a voice, overcome with sadness.
