On a recent visit to the USA, I was having a hard time trying to find a particular health food store.
Asking was easy. However having a neurological disease affecting my speech, no one could understand me. No one, except for one lady who understood every word, and gave me precise directions. Of course I was grateful, but I couldn't help wondering how she understood me.
On asking her, she said "Simple dear, I'm deaf, so I'm reading your lips".
Great stuff!
