Without any electronic gadgets of course.

No because sound does not travel across a vaccum

Literally speaking, no. But in a sense you can hear the Sun. Our sun, like all stars, emits radio waves--that's one of the sources of the static you'l sometimes hear on a cellphone.
Not only can we 'hear" the Sun by listening to its radio waves, but astronomers do just that --with the Sun and with other stars, using spcial antenna called "radio telescopes". By analyzing those radio waves, they've learned a great deal about the stars. Try searching on the web for "radio telescopes" or "radio astronomy" for more information.

No. Not without electronic gadgets.

Sound waves require an "atmosphere" (either air or water). Since the space between us and the sun is empty (atmosphereic wise), no sound can travel thru space. Don't believe those bad "b" si fi movies where they show the bad guy's space ship being blown up by the good guys and then you hear the explosion.

Sine the sun emits radio waves there are recorded occurrences of high resonance waves being picked up by small metal objects, namely braces and other dental head gear. There is a slight humming noise that causes headaches during daylight hours

You can't hear the sun at all because space is a vaccum, which means even if you scream into a mega phone next to someone they couldn't hear you, and even if you could it's millions of miles away so you couldn't even hear a bang. So in all you CAN'T hear the sun even with SPECIAL instruments (oh and the person who said they did it one Simpsons...they're cartoons!!

No, you can't hear the sun without special instruments. However, if you could somehow enter the sun's atmosphere the sound would certainly be a deafening roar.

yes but i expect you wont want to get that close and at the same time no because the atmosphere of the sun was burnt away millions of years ago in a milisecond but if you happen to get a device that can create atmospheres within a milisecond im sure theyll let you be the first one to hear it

As sound does not travel through vaccuum, you can only hear it if you go close to the sun but if you did get that close to it, you ears and the rest of you would be pretty crispy long before that.

It was possible many years ago, about 2000 years some people in the old greece spoke about the noice of the sun, (i don´t remember if it was Platon) but now, its impossible to hear people speaking beside you or me, don´t you?

Yes but only at night if the conditions just are right. I saw them listening to the sun once on the simpsons
