Either through sign language, writing back and forth, an interpreter, or gesturing. You can look on the internet for sign language interpreting agencies near you. They are business who will get you in contact with a professional who can communicate in sign language and whatever spoken language you use.Another OpinionIf you are asking the degree of communication skill, then I would have to say that Deaf people are far more skilled at understanding non-deaf, or hearing people, than visa versa. After all, Deaf people live in a world where they have to struggle to communicate, whereas, hearing people have less of a need to do that with Deaf people. So, in conclusion: Deaf people communicate very well with non-deaf people. And, non-deaf people have a hard time communicating with Deaf people.
