    I learnt this in grade 6 of primary school, I’m now 46 and I still remember this. I’ve never had a need to use it, but it’s such a useful language to know.

    Fun fact: the vowels in auslan are just each of the five fingers: a, e, i, o, u, one for each finger

    Thankyou for this. You presented it well, clearly and at a speed that makes it easier for people to learn the correct hand/finger positions. Wearing a dark outfit to use as a background against which to sign made it so much easier to see.
    I'm not deaf, nor are any of my family or friends, but I find it hard to hear what people are saying in a crowded, noisy room, bar, or club.

    Sign language is the perfect bridge. Not only can it enable people who have trouble speaking communicate but if two people speak two different languages but both know the same type of sign language they can talk without a translator

      Well the issue is that basically every country has their own sign language. Just the fact that British American and Australian sign language arent sent the same shows how many there are.

      It’s wonderful in theory, but in practice there is such a difference between countries linguistically and culturally that it’s actually tricky having a universal sign language.

      I learnt this is primary school (I’m 34). We did have some deaf students in our school, but I agree it should be mandatory regardless. I’m now trying to remember all the phrases we learnt too.

      I think the Auslan Alphabet specialises in being really quick to learn. Personally I think the American Sign Language alphabet is better because most letters only require one hand to sign.
      But! Most of the Auslan alphabet letters look like the actual letters so there’s way less brute remembering involved.
      It could also be that you’re a ‘hands on’ learner, which would be brilliant for learning sign language 🤔

      @amberdunstan7390 5 лет назад +1

      The hand position shown in the below video, at 1min.33, seems that you tap with your finger, rather than just one movement.
      ruclips.net/video/_5NbYyUlcHU/видео.html
      It also appears how you hold your other hand is different. Fingers directly forward for toilet, and slightly angled up for T.

    got to wonder why such a difference between American sign language, British and now Auslan... can anyone explain why we have our own sign language?
    I personally prefer the American sign alphabet to Auslan.

    • @helenm1085
      @helenm1085 Год назад

      Because BSL and Auslan both evolved from the same older British sign language, they have more similarities. But ASL was developed separately. Remember that these languages are primarily being used by Deaf communities, so they aren't connected by spoken English in the same way that Australian, British, and American people are.

      @killmenowordontimjustgay2046 5 лет назад +13

      Berkan Kozanoglu well maybe some of us live in Australia or New Zealand and don’t really care if it’s easier or not because they just want to know the sign language their country does instead of a totally different country.

    • @lorrainedusseau5760
      @lorrainedusseau5760 5 лет назад +1

      ASL came to Ame ica from France. Many British areas have similar. Just be happy t here is a fluent true language for the Deaf.

    • @gemstones2942
      @gemstones2942 4 года назад +2

      There’s nothing to be done about it. Languages develop individual of anyone’s will - no one chose to make AUSLAN harder in that way, that’s just how the language developed.
