As time went on, story has it that Ms Sullivan was trying to teach her the word "water" when Helen remembered her first word, "WA-WA" or "water" thus creating their second task to teach her to speak. Helen learned to speak by touching other people's mouths, and feeling how their lips moved. By doing this, she could connect each movement with a letter, then spell it out and know what they were saying. Because of the unique connections between words and objects, Helen was able to read many languages and speak them all, too. -panda
