Cued Speech makes all the sounds of speech visible by using eight handshapes in four positions near the mouth to complement the lip-shapes of normal speech. Deaf people can then 'see' the phonemes of spoken language that hearing people hear. This allows deaf children to develop their inner language, improve literacy, lipreading and speech. It can also help deafened people to communicate in English and D-deaf people improve their English. It is compatible with both aural/oral approaches and with the use of sign language. The Cued Speech Association UK provides information about and training in Cued Speech.
