Yes....yes...yes! You are right! If you want to do more video, here is a good example: Every time, we sign or write notes to hearing friends, they don’t know how to share back with us. Asking question to initiate conversation didn’t work. They act passive or talk a little but when they meet new friends or family members, they talk...talk...talk. To me, they have their own problems ...not us.
I always expect a longer video! I am still pleasantly surprised that I don't have to turn on my attention for long like other new RUclipsrs. But a little disappointed (not in you!!!) because I love your videos and would watch you for hours. Annd if you want to hear some irony I fell asleep to this video and had to rewatch it today haha.
You and Rikki Poynter are inspiring me to finally learn ASL, something I've wanted to do for 15 years and have started off and on. I'm learning French right now and since I'm learning a new oral language it makes it that much more evident how much difficulty I'm having understanding how to pronounce it and stuff (because I'm HOH).
Something that has happened to me OFTEN that wasn't mentioned in the video -is that if I ask someone to repeat too many times, they get frustrated and then say NEVERMIND! Sure, it probably wasn't THAT important, but it makes me feel like I'm not worth it to them to repeat. (You chose to communicate with me, be respectful.) An amazing example is if someone is telling a joke. For them, repeating the joke loses its humour -but deaf/HOH are hearing it for the first time!! So it's still funny for us!! One of the most frustrating and insulting moments of being deaf/HOH.
sara weiss I never thought about jokes like that! I admit I was the "nevermind" girl with my mom. She started losing her hearing, semi rapidly, in old age about the same time my chronic illnesses were kicking in. I normally speak quietly so of course she couldn't hear me. By the third time of repeating (which I probably said the same way and didn't realize the issue presented in video) I would be exhausted and couldn't bear to bring myself to speak anymore so I would say nevermind. She was frustrated, I was frustrated and it sorta drove a wedge between us until we had a good conversation about it. Then we both felt guilty about her feeling left out and me not feeling well. Ah, mothers and daughters. Payback's a bitch now that I'm losing my hearing, Lol. Can you guess I'm probably one who uses too many words when I speak? Lol no matter how I try I can't edit myself and just get to the point. But I'm more aware of the importance now. I tell myself to speak like a man, short and sweet. Lol
This is so true for me. My husband will repeat the same words that I just can't process correctly. I tell him all the time to switch it up to give me a better shot at umderstanding what he's saying
I always look forward to your endings 😂
Anyway, to add to what you said about simplicity. It also helps a lot if people use more common words rather than "highbrow" words. Those are a lot more complicated and less common in daily conversation, so it throws us off when we're trying to lipread you. Unless we're talking about something that requires those kind of words, but generally you don't need to use less common terms.
Yesssss, well said!! Totally agree with that!!
same thing can be help full for ppl with asd ( autism spectrum disorder)
Thank you!!! I am an assistant Sunday school leader with an awesome lady who happens to be HoH. I didn't know HoH meant something other than Head of Household. lol Your advice will help me make our class more fun for the teachers. Eye contact and gestures are an instinct for me, and it freaks some people out. No I realize that's why Stephanie wanted me in her class :) This video is going to get shared from me frequently.
Thank you!! :)
I end up rephrasing with hearing people too it's crazy how little some people don't understand
I totally agree my family does the same thing and they are not willing to learn ASL so its hard to communicate with them
Yea . . . that does get very frustrating at times. I work in retail and for the life of me, ALOT of customers insist on mumbling, whispering, or just not make eye contact when they try to say something.
Because of this I follow up the conversation by asking them questions that gets them to rephrase what they want. It gets them to rephrase without them realizing because apparently customers just find it unbearable to repeat themselves.
Awesome video.
Love and respect.
I used to do that at the coffee shop I worked at!! Lol! Ask them certain questions so they would repeat themselves in a different way! Totally forgot about that!
MrZero405 Ahh, the little quirks we pick up while working retail. I think everyone should have to work in retail because it really changes the way you communicate with, and treat, others. It is very bittersweet.
I mean, I often do this kind of thing as a hearing person, who happened to not hear what the person was saying. I might ask them a certain question (like the kind you're talking about) rather than directly ask them to repeat what they said. People in general have motivations to improve communication as it benefits all of those involved, whether you're deaf or not.
I realize it's been a bit since this video was released Jessica, but I must give you major kudos! You made some VERY valid points with the way hearing people deal with repeating themselves!!! Since I have hearing loss (though I'm not considered HoH as of yet) due to years and years of working with loud equipment, I frequently have to ask my friends and family to repeat themselves. You're right! A) They simply don't rephrase in ANY way-EVER and B) The more times they are asked to repeat, the more annoyed they clearly become!!! Of course, then I feel guilty for asking!
I believe the next time I run into this, I will just ask whoever is speaking to "rephrase please" and see what the result is!!! Thank you so much for making this concept into a video that we can share as needed-hubby was the first to get the link ;)
I love all of your videos! 💙💯
you're so funny!
I am hearing and teach elementary school, but I HATE when other staff mouth things to me at work like they’re trying to make sure the students don’t hear 👂🏻 and I have no idea what they’re saying ever, so I have to say what!? Like three or four times and move closer to them so I can actually understand them. It’s always really awkward lol. It seems like nobody else seems to have a problem with this method but I do. Maybe it’s because my hearing really isn’t that great compared to most people but I’m learning sign language currently, not because of that, but because I think it’s beautiful and interesting language.
nice
I agree about rephrasing, but it I also have the problem I get most of what they say and ask the to repeat and they completely change what they were saying and I have to start over
I HAD to lip read every single day at school last year and it was so exhausting
RIGHT!!?! ASL helps this! You wont have to lip read once you start signing. Thank goodness for sign language!
Jessica Flores I just learned the sign I just learned:(Freedom)
All the words I knew already
help, mom, dad ,g
Grandfeather , grandmother, amazing , able ,cool ,sweetheart ,happy ,sad scared , trouble, worry , mad, hate , stupid, ugly , jerk and that is it.
wow, Jessica, do you go by a script and then use that to caption your videos? I noticed that this is captioned and not automatically captioned. I was wondering how, if or someone or I spoke, ad-libbed and said things off script, then how would you caption it? Im trying the hard task of captioning films that have no subtitles, and I am deaf, and so Im working on ways to solve that problem. I cant always upload a film to youtube and use their 50-60% accurate automatic captioning. Ive tried some automatic transcribers that dont work as well either. Do you know of any tricks? thanks
Good question! I do have a outline script which has most of what I say typed out, however I do add a lot of extra stuff when i'm improvising that have to type out later when I am captioning. Off camera stuff i have not done yet, but I will be doing soon. It's going to be a challenge for sure. But sometimes if I don't know what is being said I'll have one of my hearing family members or friends tell me what is being said.
I defiantly wanted to caption stuff that I couldn't hear but I am not sure how to do it. If you figure out a way let me know! Do you sign? I just had a thought that it would be funny to call an Video relay service interpreter to sign what is being said lol!
Yeah, it looks like when I make something I'll have to stick to the script so its easily captioned so that theres no difficulty, lol. Im researching ways to get good automatic captioning/automatic transcriptioning, it sure is difficult, esp if you want to find shareware/freeware. There is a lot of films I'm trying to watch in subtitles, but the SRT. are out of sync. Yet again, Ive invested in over 20-30 hours in trying to find ways to synchronize SRT subtitles with a video file there is no easy shortcut so far.
Jessica Flores I sure appreciate your hard work captioning so beautifully. I am seriously HoH and I must now use captions pretty much all the time. Greetings from Pittsburgh, Laura
sometimes all i miss is a key word so i repeat what i heard hoping they will fill in the blank but no, they have to say the long sentence all over again. ugh!
Sue Klein ahhhh! This happens to me too!!!
Can you do a video about people refusing to repeat as say never mind? So frustrating.
Holly T yes wanted to make a skit about that hopefully soon :)
Not only do hard hearing people have a problem with this, foreigners who are integrating into a new language also have this problem. I`ve been talked to as if I was a child, had people raise their voices, talked patronisingly slow, etc just because the way they put their sentences together doesn`t really make sense if you literally try to translate it into your own language.
Like, I can hear your words but what the heck are you trying to say, though? :/ Really frustrating..
Yesss!!!!! OMG it drives me nuts! I notice this a lot! Like I never do that because I know what it is like when people do that and I speak the same language as they do! It's crazy
So you assume that hearing people don't try to problem solve when communicating, while deaf people do. I get that you can base the former off of your personal experience, but I don't think it's so easy to speak for what other deaf people do, whether they repeat the same things over and over. You just kind of assume that deaf people problem solve the same way you do. I do often say things in different ways if a person didn't hear me, even if they have hearing and I just said it too quietly or something. I won't necessarily repeat the exact same thing I said, and I might instead say something more to the point, something that's easier to be understood. And in my experience, this is how most people are like. Sometimes, if someone doesn't hear them, they will repeat the phrase, but a fair amount of the time they will say something slightly different but it means the same thing. Now, maybe my experience is biased, maybe I'm only remembering certain ones, and blocking out other ones unconsciously. But you could be doing the same when you assume that most deaf people problem solve when it comes to rephrasing vs. repeating. You seem to be willing to make positive assumptions about deaf people without much of a basis.
It's a pretty universal thing to put in an effort for people to understand you, as it benefits everyone involved in the conversation. Both hearing people and deaf people want this, because it makes sense. You seem to assume your group is much better at it (by saying most deaf people do it, and most hearing people don't) based on unscientific things like going by what a few of your deaf friends are like (and again it's possible to be biased when using your friends as data).
