Terms for Alters/Headmates with different speech capabilities than the collective/body
So as to not use verbal/speaking/vocal, which refers to permanent states tied to the body's/brain's capabilities
Vox -> Latin for voice
Non-vox/Nonvox 🌑 - an alter/headmate who is entirely unable to speak, whether the body can or cannot
Semi-vox/Semivox 🌘 - an alter/headmate who can only speak sometimes and/or partially, whether the body can or cannot
Hemi-vox/Hemivox 🌗 - an alter/headmate who's capability to speak falls between semivox and demivox, without being either, whether the body can or cannot
Demi-vox/Demivox 🌖 - an alter/headmate who can speak for the most part, with circumstances of speech difficulty, whether the body can or cannot (different from speech loss episodes)
Full-vox/Fullvox 🌕 - an alter/headmate who can speak, whether the body can or cannot
Vox-flux/Voxflux 🌓 - an alter/headmate with fluctuating ability to speak, whether the body can or cannot
Hyper-vox/Hypervox ☀️ - an alter/headmate who (involuntarily) speaks using more words than necessary to communicate (effective or not), whether the body can or cannot
The definitions are general guidelines, with exact meanings personal to each system/member -> vox labels are umbrella terms and a spectrum
Some examples :
A semi-verbal system with non-vox alters
A fully verbal system with demi-vox alters
A verbal-flux system with full-vox alters
A semi-verbal system with hyper-vox alters
