Lipreading
Lipreading refers to the understanding a spoken language by following the lip patterns of the speaker. Less than half the speech sounds of English are shown on the lips and lipreading is a skill not everyone can master.
Lipreading is a technique used by a person who has difficulty in hearing or deaf to understand what the other person is saying or telling him/her.
