Could you speak and lipead?

LadyDuke · 05-17-2003, 03:53 PM

I cannot speak or lipead. Zip-zero.

P.S. I apologize for deleting my other thread of the same topic because I did not realize I posted it without poll nor did I realize the thread was already created. I kinda screwed up because I'm still very new to this forum. It has more complex features that I have to get used to.

SilenceGold · 05-17-2003, 04:38 PM

Oh that is fine. I'll vote.

Teekie · 05-18-2003, 10:35 AM

Slver1FineDude · 05-19-2003, 10:51 PM

Depend on peoples for lipread if they speak too fast. I speak pretty well.

Irish Devil Dog · 05-22-2003, 04:41 AM

Boult · 05-29-2003, 08:06 AM

can speak or lipread (better with HA on)

tAzMaNiAc · 05-29-2003, 08:15 AM

I can speak very well, and lipread well. Lipreading goes a thousand times better with my CI. I'm still at the beginning stages of my journey, so lipreading is still important.

Lipreading is important? Not until you lose all of your vision caused by injury/accident, aging, or eye disease.

Amby · 06-01-2003, 12:01 PM

I can do both. I can catch about 90-95% of what the person says when Im lipreading.. when I speak, I speak clearly enough for those that know me well, but for those that don't, sometimes it's difficult.

Suppose I said, "Did you see my cat?"

Would you know if it was cat, hat, bat, date, gate, kite, or rat.

MilitaryGirl83 · 06-03-2003, 04:22 PM

I can both speak and lip read.

Fly Free · 06-03-2003, 04:46 PM

I don't care about my speech either.. I prefer ASL.

CatoCooper13 · 06-18-2003, 10:55 PM

Hi, I can talk and lip read... I lipread perhaps 70% of the time as it depends on who I am talking with and how fast the person's talking, etc. I think I could do better but just can't be bothered cos I'm Deaf.

ChelEler · 06-19-2003, 09:23 AM

I'm profound deaf, and I lipread and speak well enough to carry on a conversation with family and friends who know me so well. With strangers, that's different. I often repeat after what he/she said to make sure that I get it right to avoid any misunderstanding.

(I don't wear any hearing aids nor any devices.)

Ziusudra · 07-12-2003, 01:58 AM

I can both speak and lip read relatively well I think. I'm understood pretty well, and my lipreading skills aren't bad, it depends on whether the person has a beard, or if it's dark and those sort of things. But in good conditions, I lip read well enough.

Whaaaaaaat?? Whaaaaaaat?? I can't hear you! Oh, wait, I can lipread and speak. Thank yoooooouuuuuu!

09-15-2003, 12:57 PM

I can talk and read lips very well. I can still hear on the phone with family and friends as well as I'm HoH.

wizard · 09-15-2003, 02:52 PM

Strange but true... I cant speak/read lips but I can hear pretty good.

javapride · 09-15-2003, 04:20 PM

I can lip read and speak well spent nearly 18 yrs of speech therapy and well lip reading too, Sooo i can't hear too well on phone cuz of the wordings can mumble BUT i do talk to my mom on the phone so she knows to speak slow for me!

Mizzou · 09-15-2003, 04:57 PM

Vote for Can Lipread.... as kid, I had Oral and Hearing. but it been gone since I signs LOT than talking.

deafdyke · 09-16-2003, 01:50 PM

can speechread and talk pretty well. Everyone says I have a VERY "deaf"/hoh voice and I have been asked several times if I am from the UK. I have a LOT of trouble with modulating my voice, especially when I am wicked tired. Also have trouble with articulating some words. It's hard for me to remember how to pronounce some words so I'll pronounce the words phoneticlly.

**Oddball** · 09-16-2003, 08:15 PM

Well, I am proud to admit that I am an oral failure because I tried hard to pronounce words for people to understand me, but it was difficult for me. I had been in speech therapy from age of three through high school years. Speech therapy is not effective for me at all. Instead, I rather to use sign language to form communication with people. I have to educate hearing people about Deaf language and culture.... it is so weary. ASL is like foreign language to the people. Shrugs.

Ziusudra · 09-17-2003, 10:07 AM

It depends on the individual I think and their enthusiasm for learning. I myself find it really easy to lipread sometimes and sometimes I don't. It just depends. I can hear some words sometimes, and I'm teaching my boyfriend to learn sign so if I don't understand what he's saying, he can just sign it out or write it down. I usually like to lipread/talk so writing down things isn't too much of a hassle.
