Rely on sounds to define their experiences

But unlike hearing people, deaf athletes can't rely on sounds to guide their actions and define their experiences.

Hi,

What does "rely on sounds to define their experiences" in the above mean? Thanks.
  

Top answer

rely on sounds to define their experiences = use sounds as characteristics of their experiences. They can't conceive 'the audience was raucous tonight' or 'the soft rainfall put me to sleep'.
