People of different dialect have accents to the tone of their voices that can be traced to a culture background. It is the same with those who are deaf and can speak. Most of them speak without consonants – why? Because they cannot hear the consonant. Fricative sounds have no power as do the vowels sounds. Most of those with hearing loss cannot hear the fricative sounds and it is these sounds that are most important to speech understanding. We repeat what we hear.
Thank you so much for stopping by. It’s funny we were just talking about how deaf persons writes and why. This is another amazing piece of information and I am so happy because of how unique these folks are. Thanks again!
