If this whining or humming is out of the ordinary, it's probably a bearing or bushing on the belt assembly that's wearing out.

The question you are asking is the same as a question like: Is building a house? or Is driving a car? You can built a house, you can drive a car and you can surely sing or hum a melody! Is singing or humming a melody, the act itself is not! But depending on what you are humming or what you are singing, the part that comes out of your mouth can be a melody...
