Sura speech. It's difficult to describe. [because canon. doesn't.] I've heard it described as like a ringing voice inside one's head, before?
Functionally, it works similarly to human speech. I say something, and everyone within a certain radius can hear. It just doesn't involve the same body parts. There is the rare human who can hear it or learn to hear it, but I don't really know how.
Hmm... Then what if you were to communicate one moment of vulnerability to someone, using your current speech ability? If words are what you seek to convey, opening yourself in a grander act may as well be in order.
