Deaf and hard-of-hearing (HOH) individuals can learn to produce vocalized (voiced) speech sounds more easily because even the deaf can feel the vibrations, and the hard-of-hearing can hear some of the sounds.
Hence, they rely not only on visual information (A) but also on vibrations and residual hearing in those who have it. Devocalized (unvoiced) sounds are harder, not easier, to learn (C) for those with hearing loss because the HOH have less information without sound and the deaf have less information without vocal vibration.
