The McGurk effect https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2k8fHR9jKVM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2k8fHR9jKVM is another example, which might be described as people learning to lip read without them being aware that they have done so.
- plorkyeran 2y agoApparently I can't lip read, as I never heard anything other than "baa" even as the video was claiming that I should be hearing something different.
- CamperBob2 2y agoYeah, I don't understand what I was supposed to be seeing or hearing in that clip, and they never bothered to explain it. The guy says "Baa" and we see his lips move accordingly. Then we hear him say "Baa" again, but this time he's obviously pronouncing something else, judging by his lip movements. We don't know what he's saying (or at least those of us without lip-reading skills don't), but nothing unusual or tricky seems to be happening. What am I missing?
- plorkyeran 2y agoFrom making the same motions with my mouth I was able to figure out that the other thing he's saying is "faa", so I'm guessing some people literally hear "faa" even though the audio is "baa"?
