Lack of a voice

Answer:

NOSAY

Hint:

Think of a phrase meaning "not having the right to speak" that sounds like it's missing a word at the start.

Explanation:

"Lack of a voice" hints at the answer by playing with the phrase "no say." If you can't speak or don’t have a voice, you literally have "no say" in something. The answer drops the space to form "NOSAY," a clever way to represent the idea of being voiceless or powerless in a conversation.
