Lip Reader Vs Speech Reader

The document compares lip reading and speech reading, highlighting that lip readers rely solely on visual cues from the talker's face, while speech readers integrate both auditory and visual signals. It discusses various factors affecting both processes, such as visibility of sounds and speech rapidity, and notes that individuals with congenital hearing loss tend to lip read better than those with normal hearing. Additionally, it emphasizes that those with high-frequency hearing loss benefit more from visual cues in speech reading.
