Fetal sensory abilities have been considered for a long time as a philosophical question. The aim of this review is to investigate the scientifically proven knowledge about fetal audition. Fetal audition seems to depend on gestational age and sound characteristics. The onset of human fetal hearing is observed at about 26-28 weeks gestational age. Noises from the placenta, the maternal organs and the maternal voice play a major role as current in utero auditory stimuli. Many studies demonstrate that the fetus forms memories of his hearing experiences allowing some authors to use the term "fetal learning". The fetus can memorize not only his mother's voice but also more complex acoustic external sounds with a big ability of discrimination. Moreover, most studies strengthen the hypothesis of an implicit musical ability of the human brain.
长期以来，胎儿的感觉能力一直被视为一个哲学问题。本综述的目的是研究有关胎儿听觉的科学验证知识。胎儿听觉似乎取决于胎龄和声音特征。人类胎儿听力的开始时间约为孕26 - 28周。来自胎盘、母体器官和母体声音的噪音作为当前子宫内听觉刺激发挥着主要作用。许多研究表明，胎儿会形成其听觉经历的记忆，这使得一些作者使用“胎儿学习”这个术语。胎儿不仅能记住母亲的声音，还能以很强的辨别能力记住更复杂的外部声音。此外，大多数研究强化了人类大脑具有隐性音乐能力的假设。
