tune

• Sweet and Delicate (it's soft and good to listen to)

-Adenoidal ( comes from the nose)

-Brittle (It's fragil and looks like the person is about to cry)

-Emotionless ( the person looks dead and empty )

-Grating (annoying & unpleasant)

-Monotonous (boring to listen to)

-Orotund ( It's loud and clear to listen to)

P.S. Leave other sugestions and help other

Oh Oh! I have an entire pinterest board dedicated to this sort of thing pin 1 and pin 2 are especially helpful. I don't know if you can read them beceause I think they're sorta small in these links?
for everything else, I like:

• Melodic: often paired with a positive attitude, a voice with lots of rises and falls in tone.
• Screeching: very shrill, like an old hag.
• Booming: very deep and loud voice without the need for screaming or shouting
• Hissing: either a literal snake or someone trying to hold back anger and clenching their teeth
• Ethereal: otherworldly, of in the way that it doesn't quite come from the direction you'd expect.

Or I compare their voices to bird calls (a crow's caw, a Bluetit's chirping) or describe a scenery with like-minded energy ( a babbling brook in a calm forest, the bustling of the big city at rush hour).
