Doesn't she just think she wins because she gets to ignore people's explanations and tell them to shut up?

I've watched multiple videos of her "speaking" now. The only speeches that are understandable are the ones that are reenactments - that is, when it's not really her speaking. In the real videos sometimes a few words seem distinguishable, but generally it's not.
She had someone tell people what she was saying, using the excuse "for people with hearing disabilities who would have a difficult time hearing her". Really, it seems more like it's disingenuous.
She is amazing and overcame a mountain, and that's awesome. I still don't believe she was an audible speaker. That's completely fine. Millions of people have non-audible languages as their primary language.

Wow. I couldn't understand most of her words, but some of them were indeed decipherable. I don't think that was sufficient to live by, more like a first season student of a new language who couldn't get by in the country in question, but still... wow that's still impressive given her obstacles to overcome.
Amazing. Thank you for sharing.

Oh? Are you suggesting she could audibly speak?
