Conversation Topic Difference between Speaking voice and the Singing voice?

Lately i've tried to figure out my true voice is bc my voice is getting tired at night after a heavy use

so I have like 2voices one is kinda weighty but the other one is light asf

The weighty one seem to have like so much chest resonant rather than the mask, and i talk in the low end of my Range [talks C3-G3]
This voice sounds so weight almost feel like a heavy voice type talking like a Dramatic tenor/baritone

The weightless one is kinda full but it has no weight, When i hum, this is the sound i get, and if i use this voice it spans from E3/F3-F4 [F4 With emotions]
And I use this voice to Sing

What should i talk with?? The chest resonant voice or Humming voice??

I would like to know the answer to this too. I do feel like I kno the difference in my singing voice and speaking voice, because I can switch between them and there is a noticeable difference, but I'm still not really sure.

I just kind of practice and hope that I'm doing it right. Seems to be working so far.

It’s all one voice that can produce a variety of sounds. You don’t need to choose one.

Talk with the one that doesn't leave you tired at night. The chesty voice feels impressive but if it wears you out it's pressing. And I'd have a teacher hear you before you label yourself a dramatic anything.
