Why Do People Have Different Kinds of Laughter?

People laugh in different ways because they feel different kinds of joy. Sometimes it's a quiet giggle when you find something cute, and other times it’s a loud laugh when you hear a funny joke. Just like how people have different voices, they also have different kinds of laughter to match their feelings.
