Comment on How do some people "read lips"?

Yeah it really sucked, slightly muffled by the mask and no lips to read.

Same. My mind makes up random words to sounds all the time, so if I dont have context or lips to read, the sentences I hear people say are just wild.
I repeat things back to people wearing masks so that I can be sure that I understand them. It annoys some of them, but whatever
