Cued Speech

Cued Speech is a visual communication system that breaks down English syllable by syllable to visually represent what is being spoken. Since not all speech can be easily understood by speechreading alone, Cued Speech makes visual distinctions between easily confused mouth movements. This method can be used to cue any spoken language. Cued Speech was designed to enhance literacy in deaf children by exposing them to the phonetics of language.
