Is it like a rough inference of what’s being said based on mouth movements, or is it more precise somehow? Would it be a mistake to think you knew exactly what was said by reading lips (even if you were good at it)?

    When you say subtitles do you mean closed captions? Because I agree those are a boost for me to follow what I’m also seeing and hearing the person say. But with subtitles they’re speaking a different language so lip-reading isn’t helpful and hearing just adds tone of voice.
