They asked "Do you need a Wheelchair?" What the heck is wrong with people
well, there's people that think they need a way to use braille to communicate with deaf people, so they're stupid, as simple as that
@@-hello6177 why they are so dumb, I can't believe they aren't trolling
ChiakiNanami is the best
Do people not know the difference between being blind and being deaf
Isn’t Braille a way to communicate with blind people.
no, my name is tyler
Lol typo. Thanks for pointing that out.
@@kokichiyoursupremeleader.1713 i thought you were pointing that your actual name is tyler
when that girl said they yell behind her back to see if she's really deaf, it broke my heart :'(
Sonia Merrill
Sadly there are people who are 👌. If you watched the swearing video you’d know what I mean.
But how would she know If people yelled behind her back
@@humzy8314 Imagine going somewhere in public with high quality noise canceling headphones on, you are completely oblivious to the outside sounds around you.
Ways you could tell someone was yelling behind your back would be, visual cues as everyone looks at the yelling person, or you could just simply turn around. Also you should be able to feel the vibrations in someone's voice, if they're yelling behind you.
@@antoineholliday7631 jeez my bad
My heart was already broken but that break it even more.
"Can deaf people have sex?"
Like... why would they not be able to?
It truly saddens me how that girl got the most disgusting and disrespectful questions
that's like asking a blind person if they can listen to music
Moonlight io lmao pretty much
I mean if you like kinky shit like choking you wouldn’t hear them say stop if they had to and if your about to call me weird I don’t care I’m into that shit
Kinzock good for you man
Staff: hey, excuse me?
Me: ?
Staff: you’re not allowed to have headphones here :)
Me: headphones...?
Staff: yeah, that thing in your ear. You have to take it off.
Me: it’s my hearing aid....
This joke is dumb because this tell us we're u are
????
Blurpul tube what
Kyzo yeah people r not very aware
Oh MY god 😂
i love the interpreters voice,i love how she adds character to what the deaf people are saying
grace l I'm just writing this comment to tell you, you have 647 likes
Memeaholic woahhh wtf i didn't even notice,thanks for commenting!
It's not that she is adding character, they are expressing themselves in that way through their signing, facial expressions and body language and she is conveying that. It's just the same as you or I speaking but without the sound :)
J Reid that's what i'm saying. she's adding character as in adding a voice and intonation as if they were audibly speaking
and now you have 932 likes in 6 hours!
Most annoying question:
“Can you hear?”
Sailor Sparkle ik i was like tf? isn’t that why they’re there?
I believe there are varying levels of what people may be able to hear. Hard of hearing doesn't always mean completely dead
@Sky Cookies deaf*
@Sky Cookies oops yet sorry
Who ever ask that, they are stupid.
My instructor once said, she and her brother went to get on a plane and when the staff found out they were Deaf, the brought them a info packet in braille.
That's the funniest shit ever i-
Lmfao
I wasn’t laughing until I realized what I just read. I-
my dumb ass took a whole minute to realise what i read
I was hanging out in a library with a Deaf friend, Barbara, and we were chatting in ASL and some girl came over and interrupted us to ask if she could ask Barbara a few questions and would I please interpret for her. She literally asked her if she could read Braille. I was like, WHAT???? So I told her to go away and not bother us.
the guy with the glasses has a really good speaking voice
So do I, because I wasn't born deaf so people don't know or comprehend that deaf people can actually speak just like hearing folks do.
@@PaintedSkyArts that's what I always thought since they've never heard the words before or what their voice sounds like they'd have trouble with pronunciation, articulating themselves in a proper manner and unaware if their loud or not/how to change your voice tone.
This is kinda like saying a POC "sounds white."
i have 2 deaf step brothers, 1 of em is completely deaf, and the other is partially deaf (i think so)
the one who is partially deaf can still hear us if we speak loud enough, and he tried to mimick the words, now he can at least differentiate between words / names.. even though still not as clear as that guy with glasses.. so we can understand what he is speaking even more..
@@thanatos8214 how?
the blond 20 yr old is really really pretty, made me think of chloe grace moretz
when the translator said she's a college student, i thought she looks like a sorority girl haha
Shes so damn pretty
Yeah, she's pretty
What's her full name?
You know For Academic Purposes
When she opens her mouth and pretends to talk, it doesn't match up with what she's signing.
@@Ricobaca any idea what's her full name?
I honestly think that being able to communicate with sign language is a gift
Bright Oduti ASL is hard to learn, especially at the pace they go.
Cear Rose I was raised by my grandparents who are deaf so I grew up always knowing asl since they raised me I thought I was deaf like them and didn’t talk til I was 5 years old.
Well, idk how to interpret this, incase you are able to hear and think it's cool they can do that, you do know that you are also able to do that right? But if you're deaf I have nothing to tell you except for that's good, non sarcastically
Kylie Douglas sorry! I didn’t mean anything by that!
Cear Rose your really nice
"do you need a wheelchair?"
Bro it's like asking a blind person if they need hearing aid
I don´t buy that being a common question.
Asking a person that broke their legs if they need Braille
Lol 😂😂. Or asking a deaf person if they need a sight guide.
“hate when people ask me if I wish I could hear”

How can you be a mother if you cant hear your baby cry?
THAT one pisses me off the most.
Well gee, I keep my eye on my child and when asleep at night. Hand in crib to feel movements.
Questioning my ability to be a mom when I'm deaf is so insulting so degrading on so many levels. All the other questions on here dont care about. The one about how can you be a mom? Pisses me off.
Well blind people do it. People in wheel chairs do it. Why not deaf? My 4 year old knows I'm deaf he knew it by 2.
He runs smack into me or touches me to grab my attention he doesnt yell. (I have 10 percent hearing so I can hear very loud noises)

@@janhaviharwani5274 my son and I are plenty happy. The brain is a amazing thing really. I grew up hearing, so even though now I dont hear anymore, I still do in my mind. My brain makes all the sound I need. So when I read someone's lips, I HEAR them in my mind too. Deaf is no disability, I even listen to music too. I feel the beats and my brain makes the noise. (Though works better if I heard the song before, know what it sounds like)
Bro a child that doesn't scream? That's 👌

I’m completely deaf in my right ear, and I swear the first thing 60% of people do when I tell them is go next to me and yell in my deaf ear. Then they’re like: Did you hear that? And I’m like: yeah. Them: so you’re not really deaf? Me: I heard you with my other ear. You did yell so I’m pretty sure everyone in the vicinity heard. A lot of people don’t understand why i have to sit on the left side of them so I can hear. The other 40% are chill and don’t mock me for asking them to repeat themselves. I was born that way and grew up thinking that was how everyone was, I’ve had teachers berate me for “not paying attention” because I couldn’t hear them
I love your profile picture! Did you draw that?
Christian Kintzley it’s a drawing of me but my friend actually drew it
@@ineffabledolphin9139 Its great! Tell her she did a great job! :)
Christian Kintzley i will!
dude i too am deaf from one ear, and yes I totally relate to whatever you said. Honestly if i tell them that i cant hear from one ear, they dont trust me and yes they yell in my ear to confirm that i mean bruh. Also some start treating me like im handicapped nd start giving sympathy. Its just annoying.
"you hear the same thing over and over and over again."
Me: [visible confusion]
"You hear the same thing"
*"Hear"*
So what if they said hear? That’s what the term is.
Just like a blind person would say I see, a deaf person will say I hear. It’s not like there’s a better term.
So yall ever been on reddit it's great might be a bit above you though kinda like the joke
AngrySpongeCraft thats just a j- nvm
"when people ask me if I wish I could hear, is just awful"
"Soo... do you wish you could hear?"
being deaf is who i am i’m proud of it. it sucks when someone says they’re sorry about me being deaf, like no it’s who i am and i love it

0:29 i love that she was signing "again" and the interpreter interpret it as a " sorry im a little nervous"..thats why they r called interpreter and not a translator
booby trap nah i think they recorded it
KrystalWhateverLolz obviously they did, so what
@@user-wd8ij8nx1u audio and video was chopped individually meaning it's easy to mix up random clips with the audio.
No.. I'm pretty sure she had just messed up her lines and then signed "again" as in, "let's try again". They probably just cut off the first part because ya know, it's a video.
@@mars7612 well ya i think she messed up too and say again as in start over..but the interpreter see it as sign of nervousness(playfully) ..thats y she decide to interpret it that way..plus i think its better..it would be boring if she interpret it as a "oh one more time "
my mom is deaf. how she picked up a southern accent is beyond me😂😂😂
Hannah banana haha is she from south ?I mean that is a stupid question because regardless where she lives if she can't bear at all she can't pick up any accent 😂then it must be in the genes lol I don't know what else cud it be buy I'm sure it's very funny 😁
Irena Deacon Henriquez yeah😂😂😂 she was actually born deaf and most people can't tell because she speaks so perfectly but yeah I have no idea how she has a southern accent😂😂😂
It probably has something to do with reading lips. Each accent pronounces words differently, so logically that means different mouth movements, so to speak. We may not notice the difference, but to someone who is deaf and is reading lips, it makes sense that they would copy others mouth movements, and therefore, their accent as well.
hulksmashflowers yeah!
Hannah banana We call that Deaf accent. Some of the Deaf people's voices are different that we pick up even we can't hear. It surprise some people lol when we speak in our Deaf accent.
I was going to leave a comment about how nice it is that the video has subtitles so deaf people (like me) can understand what they’re “saying”, but then I realized that they’re using sign language and that I don’t need subtitles to understand them 😅
If I was dead I could not do sign language at all..it would be way to confusing for me

Why the fuck isn't sign language a language in school?
I know right, I really want to learn it
Clay Cutter they have it at mine it's fun!!
Melissa M damn your lucky
I KNOW RIGHT
Clay Cutter They Have it in my school yours must be really poor
I really want to learn sign language more than any language, it's so mesmerising.
Ikraam. Osman. Yes but its sad because not that many people would want to teach that
Its kind of fun to sign as well. Its almost like a performance art. Also, I find it amusing when I "eavesdrop" across the room when I see other people signing =P
Angel Torrez Sad because it reflects the world not desiring to be inclusive? Or sad cause it'd be hard to learn? Cause, its not. a sign language course is only a google a way.
LezardValeth that quite rude, its common courtesy to announce oneself as someone that signs- unless of course you are in a sign language dominant space where it is presumed others can openly observe your communication
e qfs but you don't have to openly disclose that you understand English or French or Japanese when you walk into a room and you can eavesdrop on people's conversations all the time. isn't it the same thing?
I can speak, I can hear... but in response, I prefer just to smile.
😂😂
i love theie answers to, “Would you ever want to hear?”
basically everyone said no because they still want to be part of the community and that they would still want to be there for the deaf.

Adjust playback speed
...But then I miss how the fingers exactely are or how it's supposed to be signed correct...some looking so close or even the same if one is not totally focused. It's so confusing and difficult if you start learning. Uff.

IAmTheLegend 124 yep! The wonders of speech therapy (or a hearing aid if he has one).
I know this is a dumb question.... but can deaf people speak? w/o any special hearing aid?
oofoofyea oof yes some can if they get speech therapy. However it’s totally their choice and it’s probably most common for deaf people that speak to have hearing aids.
Maybe they became deaf later in life and still remember speaking
No they're interpreters. Because that's what interpreters do.

As far as the driving question goes, I actually heard somewhere that deaf people have better and safer driving records because they aren't distracted by things like the radio, their cell phone, etc.
Dance Moms Edits the lights!
Dance Moms Edits I mean think of it this way, people that have the radio blasting in their car often don’t hear the sirens but still know to pull over because of the lights.
I remember a deaf guy was killed by the police because he did not stopped when they asked him....
Maybe this sounds a bit hard to some of you but I just think it's stupid that deaf people are allowed to drive. Sound plays such an important role in driving. Imagine someone shouting stop because you are driving over someone's foot, or when a police car is giving you instructions. There are so many things that rely on sound that it makes it incredible irresponsible to drive without being able to pick up any sound. There are big things, like explosion sounds or sirens, but also smaller things like being able to hear if there is something wrong with your car. Or hearing if someone needs help etc.
In my opinion there are lots of extra careful deaf people who drive good and also bad drivers. It is bad to give general statement, it is similar to saying we should not allow people with eyeglasses to fdrive because the eyeglass frame limits your vision. of course these parameters increase dangers of driving, but a careful deaf driver can be a good one too. I am not deaf and there been times that I had loud music in my car and didn't hear anything from outside. it is harder but not that hard that you ban all. @bjarne bergen
I'm deaf and I'm dating a hearing guy now. We have been dating for over 2 years. Our 3rd anniversary is in October. I'm profoundly deaf and hearing aids and other technology doesn't help me hear. I can hear 0%. We met 4 years ago and he started to learn sign language so he could talk to me (that also means I wouldn't have to read his lips). I hated him though. But about 2 years later we started dating. He told his friends he liked me and they even learned sign language.
❤❤❤
Good that means they're so interests in learning more about sign language & im also pursuing taking sign language classes
Nate Priestle that's great!
I’m sorry, but when you said “other technology doesn’t help me hear” you do know about the cochlear implants? I’m 100% deaf yet I can still hear.
10k subscribers with no video! Yes I know that's why I said other technology but cochlear implants didn't work for me.
Shout out to the interpreter! The way she reflects those people’s feelings is spot on! Wow!
She's just doing her job.
I hate when people call me broke for not having air pods I’m like why would I trade my expensive hearing aid for air pods 😂
That's insensitive

God forbid u just answer the question of a curious person
@@chevyblaze3773 Dude it's rude. All adults who live in an area with good healthcare and electronics know what a hearing aid is. The problem is impulse control and a lack of decency, respect. It would be fine if a more reclusive or tribal person is asking, or a child who genuinely does not know how they work.
@@meganfisher831 Or they've never seen one and just want to be sure. They're just being curious and don't mean anything by it. You gotta stop being so butthurt
I recognise a hearing aid of cochlear implant when I see it. But I'm always interested in the different styles like is this better, for certain types of hearing loss (low or high frequency specific), newer version, or whatever. But I don't ask because it's rude. I'm just a bit of a tech nerd, always wanting to know more. Probably more so since I worked for a company producing hifi systems for a while and had to learn more about analoge and digital systems, frequencies, and other stuff

This isn't so much a question but whenever I'm talking to my (hearing) sister, and I don't catch what she said, I'll ask her to repeat it and sometimes I'll have to ask multiple times. She gets annoyed on the second repeat and she'll just go "Nothing" in this exasperated voice like I offended her. Ps, it wasn't quite that I didn't hear her, it was just that I didn't understand the words. Like, if a person were talking to you in a language you don't know, it wouldn't matter if you heard them, you still didn't understand what they said.
The “nothing” reply is something we Deaf get quite often. People are just too lazy to repeat themselves. 🥺
@@pattyturpin9180 I can hear but sometimes I process slow and my mum does this. And then she gets annoyed with me!!!
This is pretty common thing among all people. People just get frustrated when they have to repeat themselves
“Can DeaF PeOplE DrIvE”
Well, they can the actual question is is it safe for dear people to drive since they are unable to listen for audio queues like horns
You can feel the horn.
The thing is visual response is much slower, than audible response.
They feel the resonnances so much. At university, I ask a fellow deaft woman how she would hear the house alarm of our dorms and she really explained all the resonnances that walls have. My visually impaired friend said the same thing! They hear walls so.. With such a attentive self I would not worry!
Yeah, I knew the answer, but I don't think it is that silly of a question.
Perhaps it is annoying for people to ask them that all the time, but when I learned to drive, the safety instructors (and my parents) stressed how important it is to be able to hear sirens and horns, and to be able to tell where they are coming from. Otherwise you can get t-boned by a first responder of you are crossing the intersection at the wrong time, among other problems. Since they stress that it's SO important to be able to listen and hear to drive, it is not crazy to wonder if people who can't hear can drive.
HOWEVER, we live in the age of technology where you can just Google the regulations for a given state/country and answer your question without annoying the only Deaf person you know.
For a long time, I assumed they couldn't. One of my family members got a ticket when I was a kid for having ear plugs in. I don't think it's a silly question if you have no exposure to the deaf community, but it must get really annoying having people ask it over and over again.
"Is sign language a universal language ?" sounds like a legit question
@@PrettyRound Yes there are differences. Different countires have different languages and between them there are accents like signs which are signed different in different regions.
Just think about it.. like really think about it. Different languages, different words, different alphabets. Does it still make sense if it would?
It would've been awesome tho. Not gonna lie. When i was younger i thought this myself, but then i reaaaaaaaally thought about it 😅
@@TokyoDogz The german sign language is for example different from the english one. Also there are some signs that are different in some parts of Germany. But somebody who is fluent in sign language is capable to communicate with somebody from another country which has a different sign language. The differences aren't so big as in spoken languages but there are still a lot.
@@janafischer5598 there is always a way to communicate.

Know of a deaf person who got hearing aids, so she got to hear more sounds than she usually would. But after 1 week she got rid of them. When we asked her why, she said the world was too noisy...
Oprah Oyugi I agree world is often too noisy and maybe these people are as happy and content because they don't have to hear all nonsense we hear on daily basis 😁😊
I would've done something like that too. If I hear nothing for all my life, hearing the world would cause a huge headache to me XD

Oprah Oyugi This should be one of the top comments
Chicken Permission don’t ever wish for something like that. As a deaf person myself, I know for a fact that life is much more burdensome than it would be if I could hear properly.
Thank you all so much, I truly appreciate you all making this video along with all the Deaf People Tell Us Series. I am SUPER grateful and appreciative.
to be honest... they look so chill, like they know a different side of the world.
As a hearing person, I have some interest in deaf culture and sign language in general. But I always feel I'm stepping on a minefield because many questions can be seen as offensive and rude. I just think it's hard to truly learn without first being dumb or 'accidentally' rude... it feels like everything can be offensive when you don't know the culture very well
Are you white American? This applies to any culture. Just because one or two people don't find something offensive doesn't mean the next of the same group don't. This is why you treat people as individuals and don't generalize or stereotype. What you're talking about is called feeling entitled and being privileged.
@@blueviolets2106 ur stereotyping white ppl right now, also how is anyone supposed to learn about another culture with out asking questions...

Being deaf is unique. And I would never want to change who I am.
It's so motivating to see them loving and accepting their life no matter what. So difficult to some people who have everything.
Keep in mind, some people don't ask these questions to be rude, they ask because they're curious. We take for granted some of the privileges we have and I think people want to understand what life is like when you can't hear, see or speak.
Literally Shitler but these people should also try to think about how they are asking and phrase what they are saying in a better way. Bluntly asking if someone wished they weren't deaf is fucking stupid and ignorant and can be phrased better with just ten or twenty seconds of forethought
Gupta God yea exactly but people don't have that emotion of "let me sensible in a way how I will ask a person"..so people go too harsh. I would be kinda hurt if I was deff and someone asks me that 😕 i am epileptic and when people tell me "oh I'm so sorry" it annoys me so much . What are they sorry for its not like I have 5 more days to live lol. people r too ignorant
Literally Shitler I understand that as a hearing person, but people asking a deaf person "do you need a wheelchair" when they're standing in front of you is just dumb.
+keeger yeah having a right arm & being able to move it freely without a struggle is a privilege.
The majority of people do not recognise all of their privileges, usually such discussions is limited to race, sex & money but there are lots & lots of privileges everyone experiences.
Sammy Ariel that actually made me think because that was what i used to define the concept and limitations of privilege to race, money and sex

I don't want to shame or insult any deaf person or person with hearing problems in any way and of course they have a normal life and are normal people, but just imagine not being deaf your whole life and becoming it through an accident or something, idk how I would manage it, like never listening to music again, I would be devastated
Kiz Oderso it truly would .😐it wud take someone really mentally strong to be able not to go crazy after that. ..We are too used to music
It literally would be the same thing with being paralysed or blind by accident, obviously it will be difficult, but then the people still have to cope on anyways.
Also music doesnt have to be heard, it can be felt, and there are captioned videos of music, or someone interpreting them, check out Deaf Choirs
Kiz Oderso happened to me🤷🏼♀️ i was twelve and 15 now. life's great. i mean yeah i have the same stuggles as most teens and though i lost certain aspects of my life i gained a whole community.
Omgod I wouldn't be able to live without music. Even now the only stress reliever I have is music, I'd rather kill myself than to be banned from music not to be dramatic.
Dear def people..
Most of the time you aren't missing anything
I am deaf too. So I understand their feelings and thank you for get that chance to tell the world that we’re normal, not strange, we just different from hearing people. That’s all.
I actually thought the one where they asked is there different types of sign language for different languages was a good question because I genuinely don't know the answer
Its me thatgirlAaliyah xo There are different languages in sign language. Like American sign language from British or Spanish.
Its me thatgirlAaliyah xo There are variety sign languages like (ASL) American Sign Language for example. I speak both ASL and English.
Well you don't 'speak' ASL lol
Its me thatgirlAaliyah xo Yeah
Its me thatgirlAaliyah xo
I think you meant to say "genuinely", not "generally "(:
My mom has this one co-worker who has cochlear implants, and he's so funny, like whenever he he bored of a conversation or doesn't want to talk to someone, or even to just play a joke, he'll turn it off, and just say,"what I can't hear you" over and over while pointing to his ears. He's also really nice and knows how to cheer you up if you have a bad day
Rhian Evans same, knew exactly that kinda guy too, late friend of my grandpa's :D
Thats literally me
My colleagues know I can lipread, but I'll still tell them "sorry I'm so deaf, I can't hear you" like that mattered when I'm looking right at them. :'D
my hearing is very bad, one naida 9, other ear is dead, but i have very good sight, so i ended up with people at work asking me if i could tell them what others were just talking about, up to 30-40m away (in a very loud factory :D)
+Rhian Evans yes it's a good excuse to avoid listening to boring or annoying or offensive people :)
They all have such bright personalities and seem like very nice people. I hope they all get the best things they want in life.
Would love more videos on Deaf (and deaf) people, any more educational videos on the Deaf community in America and throughout the world is always something that will help inform others of what's going on!
I saw a documentary about a boy teenager who was born deaf and at 16 he got a surgery so he can hear and he hated it he was so scared of everything even the softest sounds gave him headaches so he removed his hearing aids
Yup. Your brain adapts to what you need. Stuff it full of extra stuff and watch it blow up :P
I have a hearing aid and a cochlear implant and yeah its very sensitive when you first get it so they start it off with the volume very low and slowly turn it up like once a month until you reach normal hearing volume.
FortisConscius yep. To be honest though, for exactly the same reason your brain is going to adapt to such an implant after a while, too. But to each their own
+M Kz lots of deaf people do that. It's not about the headaches, it's just that you can't even hear yourself think sometimes. The sound of the wind howling, keys tapping, fans spinning, dogs barking people arguing. You get used to it after a while but sometimes you really want some peace and quiet, I think everyone does :)
+Brandon Smith still can't understand some people though right? you'd think you'd be able to understand everyone but some people just speak funny, that's something you don't realize when you can't hear.
You think, if I can hear I can understand, but some people are like mmfffghb?
At 0:25 Shyanna actually doesn't say she's a "college" student, she says she's a Galludet student.
I caught that too.
I saw that too lol
They were signing to fast I didn't even notice! I Love ASL but I'm not able to sign that fast yet!
This video is full of lies, lies, lies.
The interpreter likely just changed the answer accordingly because Gallaudet University is a college for Deaf or hard of hearing people.
I am glad your asking the right questions to the right people so I don’t ask the wrong questions or assume the wrong answers.
My aunt is deaf and talking to her was hard as a kid but once i grew up she taught me some signs and it was actually fun learning to talk to her in a way she could understand
The girl at the start is so gorgeous ❤
Did we finally found her? 😂
Ikr , I wana marry her
But she probably doesn't date hearing people.
Thirsty 13 year olds in the comments
She a has a youtube channel just about her called " Cheyenne Clearbrook"
I'm not completely deaf, but I am extremely hard of hearing. So much so that I have to read lips to understand you, but my speech is almost perfect. I can hear certain tones, but not many. A lot of people think you are either 100% deaf or you can hear, there's no in-between. I get people accusing me all the time of lying because they'll scream behind my back and I'll react to their scream. It makes me so mad when people do this. To have to deal with this "disability" and then to be accused of lying about it is so maddening. When it comes to people like me who are deaf and hard of hearing the ignorance of "normal" people is mind blowing.
Btw, just so you know, when we're reading your lips, slowing down your speech and over annunciating does not help us at all. In fact it makes it extremely hard to read your lips. Just speak to us like you would any other person. Slowing down and over annunciating just makes us feel like you're talking to us like we're idiots.
I'm hoh myself and I get so tired of having to explain that if you're behind me and I don't respond its b/c I can't hear you. I've had so many people get mad b/c I wouldn't talk to them since they were behind me and I had no clue.
Elizabeth Weaver I feel your pain. Know what else drives me crazy? When I tell people I read lips and they still look down, or look away, or cover their mouths with their hands while they're talking to me. Then they get annoyed with me because I have to keep asking them to repeat themselves! It's so aggravating.
I've also experienced the disbelief from my own family even. I'm hard of hearing in one ear and while it doesn't prevent me from having a normal conversation I have no sense of directionality and it's impossible to hear speech over background noise and getting people to repeat themselves or speak louder they either get dismissive or simply don't speak any louder. It gets tiring reminding the same people at work every day to please speak up and directly at me I often just hope I got the response I was looking for and walk away. I've been accused of ignoring and lying and it sucks but what do you do? Nobody else is inside your head if they don't want to believe you they won't
James Benevento thanks for the advice about not slowing down my speech I have a deaf friend (I don't know much sign language also probably slightly different type of sign language being Australian (ours is called Auslan "Australian sign language") so this probably gonna help
Jim B - you're like my son. He's hard of hearing and wears aids but has always refused to learn signing. Consequently he doesn't fit in either world. It's very sad.
It’s so heart warming when I see a deaf person be chatting with a hearing person and the hearing person has learned the sign language
The facial expressions of them are so much more expressive then most ppl I know, I wish I could be friends with them.
Most annoying question be like:
"What's your fav genre in music"
"CaN u HeAr"
"Do U eVeR tHinK wHeN soMeOne YaWns thEy aRe ScReAminG"
That 3rd question is not annoying, I think that's pretty interesting actually
The last question is just genuinely hilarious xD
Watch them hear this again... oh wait
They can feel vibrations so I understand the genre question. I have a friend who is mostly deaf and she absolutely hates the flute(it feels weird, she can feel it. But she CANNOT hears it at all. She can recognize the flute by how it feels. She described it like nails on a chalk board. Probably the easiest way to get the point across, and much prefers emo music.)
my mum is deaf and her favourite music genre is rock! she loves the beat, because she can feel the vibrations
I watched this a year ago when I first started learning ASL, and I watch it every couple months to “test my progress” so to speak. I can understand most of the signs now 😊
That's great progress!
Same, I just started learning the alphabet so I have to pause every few seconds to get their names.
Me toooo
i'm a bit late but did you take an online course? if so do you still know what specific course you took? really wanna learn asl too but idk what would be a good start lol
This video brings such joy to my life ❤️ I’m so glad these people are loving their life even if they are deaf 💖
sometimes I'm amaze with special community like this who help each other and wonder they will synchronize more than common people and goes further.
As a deaf person who grew up in the deaf community, it makes me so happy to see that people are actually trying to recognize our culture and learn from it. People seem to perceive us as disabled, which is so not true since we live normal lives. Definitely want to see a lot more of these videos!
It's normal for people to think of you of disabled because being deaf is a disability but just because people think of you like that it doesn't mean they consider you inferior
Not all deaf people think deafness as a disability. Like I King Jordan said, "Deaf people can do anything a hearing person can do, but hear". So, even though their lives may not be as easy as hearing people, the term "disability" may make people believe that they aren't capable of being independent. That's why they don't like the label, even though medically speaking, can be labeled that way.
of course not, I'm deaf and I don't consider myself as a disabled because I don't have one (of course I have hearing loss but still I don't label myself as one) I feel like people need to be aware that deaf people are not disability at all and need to stop being labeled in medical terms
I understand that but deafness is still a disability, medically. Disabilities are things that limit someone's senses, movements, activities, thinking process, etc. not all disabilities are horrible and lower your quality of life.
But the fact that we categorically have a term for people that don't fit what we consider the "norm" or the "capable" inherently requires a sense of those people being "less-than". Ableism is a big issue in our culture, and the very notion of disabilities or people being disabled reinforces it and makes it worse. I recommend learning more about ableism and its damaging impacts.
“ why are you wearing fake AirPods”
“There my hearing aids”
“Oh you still broke though”
Why did I get so much likes for this dumb joke
*yeets in asl*
Just say, "actually, hearing aids cost around $1,000 - $3,000, meanwhile, AirPods only costs around $100. If you don't belive it, search it up".
Just say like that
Hearing aids are EXPENSIVE!!!

Im sorry but i lost it after reading the end of the comment 😂😂😂
Lol
And blind people say I see what you're saying. Its just common speech. Don't be an ass.
Lol as a deaf person i approve 😂
I love that they have these! I am a hearing person but I've always been fascinated by the world around the deaf and hard of hearing, and I've been trying to learn ASL, it's REALLY HARD!!!! but I think even though its hard to learn something so different, if it makes someone else smile than its worth it, and even with my Very limited knowledge I've been able to help and make someone else's day. :) that makes me happy.
The translator did an amazing job of conveying emotion and tone.
3:31 AWWWWWW!!
HER LAUGH!! 😭🤩💖✨
3:30
Bad shot its 3:30
Right!!! I loved it
:'-)
Ikrrr I’ve never heard someone laugh before
I think it’s really cool how content they are being deaf and how comfortable they are with their lives. I now realize being able to hear is just really convenient, but it doesn’t change your happiness.
I just wanted to say that everyone is glowing and seems to be hella friendly.
And the college student is STUNNiNG✨
I’m half deaf... when I was 2, I was in a freak accident when blew my left ear. In primary school I had to wear a hearing aid which didn’t help. So I stopped using it. When I went into high school, I couldn’t hear the teacher when they said certain words because I would confuse them for another word (e.g I thought my P.E teacher asked me to drop the cat, he actually said drop the bat). Half through term 3 last year, my mom toke me for a hearing test. Like what my mom told her before she tested me, I’m completely deaf in my left ear, she did the testing where you press a button when a certain sound came on in one of my ears. Then, she did something different. She turned to me and said, ‘Annwn, I’ll play you a recording, tell me the words you hear’. So, I did. I got a few words wrong but they were ones like the example I wrote earlier. After the two tests she turned to me and said, “I recommend the roger”. Me nor my mom knew what the hell it was until she explained it.
It’s new technology, the roger is a little microphone, which takes the shape of a pen, is worn by the teacher or anyone whom the person with the hearing difficulty wants to hear. The person wearing the roger around the neck speaks and the microphone picks up the sound waves and sends it to a hearing aid, which the deaf people has to wear in his or her good ear. It’s similar to Bluetooth, except it isn’t. The microphone is so flexible, you can put it in the middle of the dinner table and the roger would pick up everyone’s voice. My mom turned to me and asked if I wanted her to order it, I said yes so she got it for me.
It toke a few weeks but my two best friends (who knew about my deafness) were so excited for me. When I got it, I remembered that I was gonna have to give it to the teacher. I asked my mom to print out information on the roger so I can give it to my teachers. So my mom did and gave them to me, I made the little bit of effort to highlight the English bits cause there was multiple languages. When I came to school I showed my best friends first. My male friend smiled and started to goof around with it, whispering stuff in the microphone and then asking me if I could hear it. I responded yes everytime . My best female friend did the same thing, when my other friends (two other guys) found out, they ran around and hid somewhere and said stuff which I responded too. They had too much fun but I was scared on how my class mates was gonna react.
I brought it into class, nervous as hell and handed it to the teacher along with the piece of paper my mom printed out. I was too scared to tell anyone but they all noticed, some of the teachers joked around and called it their new ‘necklace’. But, When the last period rolled around one of my class mates asked the teacher, after learning the pattern what it was for. He responded with “oh, Annwn’s deaf, this helps her hear. Why? Did you think it was the lastest fashion trends for all teachers?” Everyone chuckled, of coarse a few kids, even the one who asked the question turned to me and asked if it was true. I toke out my hearing aid and showed it to the class. They found me the coolest kid for the sixth period and the teacher made a few jokes about the roger.
And here I was thinking everyone was gonna think I was weird and uncool.
Annwn Jay I was born partially deaf, ur situation was better, I got bullied all through primary school, by the time I reached secondary I was given a bulky hearing aid fitted on glasses, I look like a freak, I LOVE IT lol, o feel unique and I finally have friends so like, I'm really happy, but not much ppl like me . Don't judge a book by its cover lol
Huh, I dated a boy back in highschool who had a device like that. From my personal experiences kids don't pick on people with ACTUAL disabilities. Just the ones with negative social behaviors like shyness, timidness, dressing in a way that makes them seem unable to be social, or those who are awkwardly social in some way. Too much talking, not enough, strange word usages, so on.
So you’re hard of hearing, (half deaf isn’t a thing)
@@meganfisher831 That's so true
Phoenix Grimm yes they do.
Hey just thought I’d comment as someone who knows ASL (I’m a CODA). When the first two girls were fingerspelling their names, the names were spelt as Y-V-E-T-T-E, and C-H-E-Y-A-N-N-A. But the English captions have it written down as “Evette” and “Shyanna”...
Also, this isn’t as important, but Cheyanna signs that she is a Gallaudet student, not just a college student.
What's a Gallaudet student?
Nek Gentapa Gallaudet is a famous university within the d/Deaf community. It’s a college for d/Deaf students. Many of the professors there are fluent in ASL, but some have classroom interpreters to help with the lessons. I considered going there because I felt a little bit pressured by my parents to go (since both of them are Deaf and Gallaudet actually reached out to me first) but I ended up deciding on a hearing college and they were a little bit disappointed. I’m glad I made that choice though. Since both of my parents are Deaf, we live in a town with a high d/Deaf population (because there’s a Deaf school in the town) and so everyone there signs. In fact, even in school it felt like I was signing more than I was speaking. I wanted to go to a hearing college because I wanted to take a break from all the signing. I love ASL, it’s a beautiful language, but taking a break to join hearing culture is nice to. Being a CODA has been a wonderful gift for me because it has given me the opportunity to be a part of both hearing culture and Deaf culture. But yeah, it just bothered me a little bit that the captions (and the interpreter) said she was a college student. Gallaudet has its own unique sign and it’s actually somewhat difficult to get into. They don’t just take all d/Deaf students. I felt like people should know that that girl attended the university, considering all it stands for in the Deaf community.
@@caseygreyson4178 thank you so much for the information. And I agree with you that her going to Gallaudet should've been included. I also felt proud of you upon reading your story. That's a really good move you did :)
so you an ending event? (CODA)
ChiakiNanami is the best wow! You’re so uncreative you felt the need to make the same joke twice on two different comments!
The interpreter did an amazing job!!! Thank you so much.
"Do deaf people have sex?" 😒 That one annoyed me the most.
I am profoundly deaf since birth but I had cochlear implant for 13 years. I still get asked these questions and it does annoyed me sometime. Especially when people bring religious beliefs into it, like stop it, I am not "brave" for it, you don't need to pray for me?!
I feel awkward when they said "do you wish you could hear." I can hear with my implant however in the hearing world people were kind enough to try their hardest to help me be comfortable and provide me with any thing I need.
However the deaf community seem to want to avoid me because my parent apparently didn't "care for you enough, to try to go and fix you." And it absolutely make me furious. How dare they bring my parents into the situation?! I am not being "fixed", I still struggle a lot! My speech is still not great, and I still can't understand people when they talk to me sometime that I had to asked them to write down what they say several time. I still have to learn sign language in case I ever lose my implants. I am not "fixed" nor do I live a perfect life but it does make things a bit easy for me.
It the deaf people who makes me insecure. It hurts me a lot, I just wanted to be accepted by them. I still call myself deaf but they won't because they think I rather be a hearing person. It's painfully ironic, a deaf person who is accepted by the hearing community who is willing to change for them versus the deaf community that shun you and your parents. It gave me a hard time to the point I went through therapy because I developed depression. I just desperately want to be accepted by the deaf community! I am deaf, and I am proud of it, isn't that enough?
I am so sorry to hear about your experience, that is absolutely awful. There’s definitely a notable rift between a large chunk of the Deaf community and those who end up getting a CI. Hell, a huge problem that I’ve heard about at Gallaudet University is that there’s a massive divide between Deaf and HoH students. It’s so awful and so unfair. I wish I could meet you and introduce you to my local Deaf community, they’re so incredibly kind. In fact, today I went to the Deaf Festival and there were TONS of people walking around with CIs and there was absolutely no tension or disdain regarding them whatsoever. Don’t let anyone tell you that you’re not a part of the Deaf community, EVER. In every community there is segregation and discrimination and unfortunately that is exactly what’s happening to you. I’m proud of you for not feeling like you’re the problem (I’ve met a few people in your position who felt like they were broken people and deserved the ridicule). Much love, I hope things get better ❤️
@@realmofthemisunderstood166 Thank you so much! This was the best thing to wake up to!
Mars Thulite you said you speech isn’t very good...but your writing is amazing!!
Heheh I wish I could write that well..... but I’m sorry sometimes I feel not accepted by lots of people I don’t worry about it....I’m glad you stayed strong......
What do you think about the girl that says that she wouldn't like to hear because she would feel privileged?
Just because there deaf doesn't mean there any different as people
I love the translator's voice and the way she translates.. 😄😄
I know this was a year ago but I feel like the guy in black is underrated, he very well explained everything, gave as best of an answer he could, and really tried to give us as much info as he could, tbh it really struck my eye
The blonde guy could talk really well! It’s super impressive to have a relatively normal sounding voice when you are deaf (what I mean is that a lot of times voices are muddled or the pitch is off simply because they can’t hear what they sound like) so mad props to him!
because he was wearing chchlear implant that helps hear everything and thats how he learned spek. im deaf with chochlear implant i got this when i was 3 years old, growing up and learning speaking as result im used to speak and hear very well . but of course people are diferent my bestfriend have the same as mine chochlear implant at 3 years old but she cant speak very well and not very clearly she using sign lanqguage and im used to her voice i can understand the words she is saying. :)
I wish they put up subtitles that cut out half way to show how subtitles are important to people with impaired hearing
Cj What do you mean? There are English annotations.
Ainul Mardhiyyah Ur so dumb it hurts
*You're* so dumb *that* it hurts.
Ainul Mardhiyyah Not all videos have correct subtitles, since they are automated from speech to text. Someone has to take the time to type the correct ones. And it's important that someone should do that on youtube videos.
Ariel Odeth This one does
I actually thought sign language was a universal language.
I figure it couldn’t be but I was never sure. Def. not a dumb question.
@@YouLaToya I mean seriously! A lot of sign language is doing real actions to mimic the physical actions for instance pointing to yourself is "me". That's a universal sign as far as I'm aware, as well as a few things... There is also a universal language, but no one uses it. It exists, but yeah.
@@miadost8236 it puzzles me why some countries and communities didn't decide to adopt one. Most of the sign languages aren't even that old to say it's for historical/cultural values, many countries just created a national sign language in the 60s or 70s... They could've easily made a language that was universal up to a point (not mentioning the regional slangs, of course)
Sign language originated in france!! Theres very many types of it
@@miadost8236
some words would be similar.
there are cognates in spoken languages so there would be some in sign language. that doesn't mean every word is a cognate though.
can we please talk about how amazing it is that the one guy acctualy knows how to talk?
It must be so hard to learn it, respect!!
How some of them mouth words so perfectly is another testiment of how incredible these people are!
It sucks because I think I would have asked some of these questions unknowing that they might be rude or disrespectful but out of genuine curiosity. Like the driving one? Driving involves a lot of hearing for alertness and being aware. Screeching of a car or honking or trains crossing so I would have totally made an ass of myself. And the universal language for sign language like I legit wouldn't know so I'd ask. This was a good video.
I agree. I get that any question will get annoying if being asked over and over again. Especially the driving one seems like a pretty legit question, though. The about vision is, you have to actually look in the direction of e.g. an ambulance to see it coming. If you are able to hear and they're using their siren, you'll hear it, no matter where you're looking. Granted, this disadvantage might just be (almost) eliminated by paying more attention.
i don't think you would have made an ass of yourself. I totally get that this questions bother them but mostly because they might have been asked these things over and over again and they are just tired. they are like anybody else and can get frustrated too, but is not like you would have been disrespectful.
Of course now knowing that in general deaf people don't like to be asked these things i won't either
I don't really think people use hearing for driving, not in big cities at least, you're hearing gets saturated and you just ignore everything around you, so...
Cori The Cat deaf people are very alert of their surrounding actually more than hearing people because they rely heavily on their eyesight so they notice way more than hearing people
I'm K/CODA, a split between two cultures. And I feel like these questions I get asked almost as much as my parents! Many people wonder about how it's like that they're deaf.
The interpreters was the beasts, that sounded like dem ppl were talking..
Exactly! At one point I forgot she did and was like wait what. I'm also tired now tbh but still such a good job done
"It is not our flaws what makes us who we are, but the virtue we manage to bring forth from them"
This is a nice quote, but being deaf isn't a "flaw"
I'm really getting excited to learn sign! A new friend is really involved with the deaf community and she has inspired me to learn! I'd really appreciate some resources in getting started
1:05 she's so cute
instagram.com/cheyennaclearbrook/ Here you are :) *flies away*
ChristophGangrel are you sure that's her?
yea thats her, the ear piercings match up
Her name is cheyanna on there but shyanna on here.. I dont think thats the same person
Simply_Asia that’s clearly her lol
“Do you need a wheelchair?” 🤣😂🤣😂
I can imagine that must be annoying, especially when they know you've booked assistance because you're deaf. BUT most people who use wheelchairs are able to stand/walk a little bit. I have many times walked up to a staff member at airports, big shops etc and asked for a wheelchair. So if they don't specifically know that you're deaf just that you need assistance, it's not a bad question. :)
Beth Manship
Yea, just hilarious though when it’s said in this format.
SMG
Well it’s funny that how stupid people can be to ask a question like that.
NPC S/N 1579325 made me laugh so hard
NPC S/N 1579325 ikr how does not being able to hear make you not able to walk like i laughed so much
Such an informative video. Thank you to those who answered the questions and shared some insight for the hearing community. I know how offensive people and their questions can be. I lost my husband in Iraq and the questions people ask are so invasive and rude it is mind boggling. I will try to remember the things that are offensive as I begin my journey to learn ASL.
It‘s great to see how proud they are... i could never imagine to be happy if i‘d go deaf now
Ehh, you'd get over it, same as them. Life goes on. Besides, there's still hundreds of things that make you happy without noise.
