the famous english mathematician Wallis , John (1616-1703) ,who has written a grammar book "Gram-matica linquae anglicanae",and other two papers ,one is "Para-xis grammatica",the other one is "De loguela". i heard of it before ,but i still not lucky enough to read it . i will be very grateful to anyone could give me information about it .
the other question is if we can understand what one is saying just by looking at the shape of her or his mouth . could you give me some information about it .

best regards to the one who ever helped me and will help me .
