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 :)
I have used hearing aids for years and I recently experienced 'Abrupt Hearing Loss' and I'm told that I'll probably be totally deaf in my left ear and since I'm experiencing issues in my right ear it's possible that I will lose all hearing in it as well. So, I'm scrambling to find a good lip reading course and I am willing to pay for a good service but I want to be confident that I will quickly learn to lip read. In this first lesson I didn't do very well and something that confused me was the use of words that were out of context. I understand that I need to be able to substitute and 'fill in the blanks'. But for now when I'm reading your lips in the exercise I find that not being a lip reader to begin with hinders me from recognizing that a word needs to be substituted. I think that if I go back and do it again I may see some improvement. If you see this within a few hours, can you comment on my comment and maybe give me some ideas? Thank you.
Hi @joesephdeal108, Sorry to hear about your sudden hearing loss. Good for you for being proactive about learning to read lips. These speechreading lessons are challenging and I anticipated that people would need/want to repeat them to get the full benefit. I would recommend leaving it for a couple of days and then try again. In the meantime, go ahead and try Day 2. I have created an easier version of Day 2 as well, so make sure you do that if you are having difficulty. Let me know how you are doing! Sandra
Another thought that I had...is that maybe if you had a bit more time, that would help? So press pause after each one. Are you using the captioning? (Maybe if you see and hear it, it will be a bit easier.)
I just found this channel and subscribed!!! I have bilateral otosclerosis. I had a stapedotomy in my left (worst ear at that time) and did not have the other side done because it was a very unpleasant surgery to recover from. I had prolonged period of months of vertigo and I was so afraid it would never go away. It did, and the surgery was a success in restoring a good deal of my lost hearing. However, the disease is progressive, and the boney plates are again overgrowing and stopping my eardrums from vibrating. My left ear has deteriorated once again. I'm just at the level where I now have a hard time understanding conversation. My father had the same disorder, and mine was exacerbated by pregnancy. I know quite a bit of signing, and I'm trying to learn speech reading because it's how my father got by in life. He only had 15% of his hearing left where mine is about 40. I've had hearing aids in the past, but would probably look for BAHA type aids as I "hear" sound conducted through the bone much louder than the eardrum. Anyway, I've subscribed and intend to watch these over and over, and practice. THANK YOU for making these great videos for people like me!!
Can I help? 😮 Write down on a piece of paper, P=B=M. Then go through the exercise again. If the error is an M, (BBQ rims), then cover up the M with your finger. Keep the same vowel sounds. The other possibilities are rips and ribs. Only “ribs” go with the word “BBQ.”
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 ua-cam.com/video/poDktIcxEIY/v-deo.html Thank you!
Hi @danwool, I got parts of it. Is it possible to give me a bit more context--more of the preceding dialogue? I like a good challenge so I am hoping to crack it!
@@HEARa Great! Yes. Ernest Borgnine's character, a rich Mexican landowner, is trying to get the army to help him track down his nemesis, who he thinks is responsible for his daughters death. In the scene EB is frustrated that the army has been useless in this endeavor. The preceding lines are: EB to Soldier: Then all that you have done is completely useless. Soldier: Our mission was to clear the area of bandits and we accomplished that, now it's a problem for the authorities in Mexico. EB: No. He'll be back soon. As soon as you go. Soldier: How can you be so sure. EB: Because he's threatened to kill me! Soldier: Listen, Señor Sandoval. We can’t remain here indefinitely. We’re at war, and the Confederate Army doesn’t exist simply to defend you! EB: ?? - MISSING LINES- ??...Goodbye! I think the first part of EB's missing lines might be "And so what DOES the army do for us captain" but it's just a guess. Thank you so much of giving it a try! Let me know if there's any other info I can give you.
@@danwool, I'll write down what I see, even though I know it is wrong. You know more about the story, maybe you can fill in the gaps. If you get more of it, let me know and I will give it another shot! And so what the army choose for, captain? And as for you. Because Myra's wedding is shot. And the confederate army's special hijinks go to jail. Goodbye!
@@HEARa Great! This definitely fills in some gaps, but doesn't quite make sense in the film. I dug up a very unreliable Spanish translation of the scene, which was probably embellished for Spanish audiences with little thought to what Ernest actually said, but it might give you some additional context. I'll add the translation to the UA-cam notes ua-cam.com/video/poDktIcxEIY/v-deo.html I sure hope it's fun for you! What you've given me certainly helps. Thank you again!
@@danwool thank you for the additional context! I am reasonably confident the first line is “I know what the army is used for captain” I will keep working on it.

It's neat that you have already been lipreading all along! Hopefully with some background information on the theory, things will get even better!
You are a wonderful teacher !
Wow, thank you! ❤️

Thank you for sharing your hearing journey! You are right- I made these videos precisely for people like you! Hope they are helpful!
It started off easy, but once I wasn't sure I started to panic and get behind.
Yesss. That's what hearing loss is like! Thanks for sharing your experience. It will surely help others who felt the same way.
Whoo who!! I got them Sandra!
Yay! Glad to hear it, Tracy!
Love it Sandra!
Thank you, Donna!
What a valuable resource
Thank you, Nicole!
you are a great teacher. Thank you so much.
Thank you for your kind words!
I appreciate your lessons. It it great for focus exercises peace and abundance
Glad you find it helpful!
All I got right was “no that’s not it”😭
Can I help? 😮
Write down on a piece of paper, P=B=M.
Then go through the exercise again. If the error is an M, (BBQ rims), then cover up the M with your finger. Keep the same vowel sounds. The other possibilities are rips and ribs. Only “ribs” go with the word “BBQ.”
Thanks 🙏
Mangoes = main goals, I noticed that in like the first minute 😅
Yes! Looks very similar
Can you think of something that starts with a B or a P that looks similar? All one word.
