There's a way to be efficient when you are learning to lipread. In Day 1 you will learn about P, B, and M sounds (to get three mangoes with one stone). You will also learn about invisible sounds. A more correct term is speechreading, rather than lipreading. But it doesn't matter what you call it, as long as you make use of all of the information available to you! Cues come from facial expressions, body language, gestures, and movement of the lips, teeth, jaw, and tongue.

Online classes available! See heara.ca/programs/

The ANSWERS, as well as extra substitution work for keeners, are pinned to the top of the COMMENTS section below!

This lipreading challenge is developed on the premise that communication is a two-way street. Hearing loss is not YOUR concern. Or it's not JUST your concern, anyway. Everyone that you communicate with shares this concern. See heara.ca/communication-a-two-way-street/

ANSWERS: 1. 4:30 I have a great recipe for BBQ rims/ribs. What other word looks like rims? 2. 4:39 My cub/cup is empty. What other words look like cub? I can think of four when I include invisible sounds (hint: H) and alternate spellings! 3. 4:46 Ugh! I am at the end of my Rome/rope! What are two other words that look like Rome? 4. 4:53 I don't let my met/pet up on the couch. What's another word that looks like met? 5. 5:00 Please, think no poor/more about it. What are four other words that look like poor (include alternate spellings)? 6. 5:05 It's so nice to beat/meet you, finally! What are four other words that would look like beat? 7. 6:08 The baby sat on his mother's lamb/lap. What two other words would look like lamb? 8. 6:16 In yoga class, we chanted home/Om. OOPS~! Sorry. This was an example of a homophenous word error, not a homophenous sound error. 😁 9. 6:29 My hair is a mess! I need a hope/comb. What other three other words would fit here? 10. 7:01 Kelp/Help! I am being chased by a wild pore/boar! See number 5 for the other words that would look the same

I have auditory processing issues and I often mishear the silent sounds and things like that, my hearing is perfectly fine but sometimes my brain lags and if my attention is elsewhere lipreading really helps! I was watching this video to help with it then I realised ive actually been doing it subconsciously all along, still ive got very reliant on subtitles so I am trying to brush up on this skill :)

It started off easy, but once I wasn't sure I started to panic and get behind.

Hello. Would someone be up for helping me figure out what a character in an old movie is saying? The lips are very clear in the scene, but the audio is lost on two lines of dialogue. It's my job to replace the dialogue with a living actor. Apologies if this request is insensitive. I'm not sure what the ettiequte here would be. Here's the clip. I left in the proceeding line for context https://youtu.be/poDktIcxEIY Thank you!
