IMPROVED: The post below is correct, but I MUST add that it has long been considered VERY INAPPROPRIATE to say deaf and dumb. Deaf is to not hear. Mute is to not speak. Deaf and dumb is considered extremely offensive. Also know that many deaf persons speak with their mouths just as hearing persons do.
Sign language is the most common form of communication used. Basically, it is an additional language people learn so they can talk together in another way. Lip reading is also used, but it is better as an augmentation, rather than as a primary means of communication.

How communicate DEAF and DUMB persons?
First of all, please never say this term, "deaf and dumb". It is quite insulting, and considered today to be very inappropriate as well as incorrect. In eaarly times, deaf persons were thought to be dumb if they could not speak. Today, we realize that they are not dumb; they might be quite smart. The deaf often do not speak because they do not hear the sounds made by speaking. Having said that, the deaf communicate mostly in 2 ways; signed language (with the hands, gestures, and expressions), and by teletype (a machine similar to a keyboard here).

Why is a born deaf child dumb?
The term "dumb" is outdated and misleading when referring to individuals with hearing impairments. A child born deaf may face challenges in verbal communication due to a lack of auditory exposure, but this does not equate to a lack of intelligence or ability to communicate. Deaf children can develop rich forms of communication through sign language and other means, demonstrating that they are not "dumb" but rather communicate differently. It is essential to recognize and support their unique communication needs and abilities.
