When we say something is "nasally," it means that it has to do with the nose. It could be the way you breathe, speak, or even sing. A person who speaks nasally may have a sound that comes mostly from their nose instead of their mouth. You might have heard someone who sounds like they have a cold all the time, even though they don't. That's because they have a habit of speaking nasally. Now, think of it this way, imagine your nose as the superstar of your face. When it's not feeling well, it decides to take the spotlight and make everything about it.
