    Hello ASL Heroes!!!
    If you’ve enjoyed these lessons or videos you are invited to help support ASL University. A donation from you would instantly make a big difference here at the studio because teachers don’t earn much and I could use some help paying for server and domain hosting for the ASL University website: Lifeprint.com. There's an easy way you can help out your humble (as well as kind, caring, generous, compassionate, helpful, friendly, fair, and hard-working) ASL teacher. Just click on the Paypal (donation) link below and you can be an "above and beyond" ASL Hero!
    www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=64QMBRBXQSV6G
    Thanks!
    - Dr. Bill
    ==========================
    p.s. Want to have your very own USB drive with four semesters worth of ASL instruction (that’s the equivalent of two years of colleges classes) for just $79.95? See "SuperUSB" in the ASLUniversity bookstore at: lifeprint.com/bookstore/bookstore.htm
    Take care and my best to you all. :)

    It’s so upsetting that the top videos that come up when looking up sign language phrases are littered with catchy commercial background music and self promotion.

      It's just: you+need+go+toilet with eyebrows raised to indicate a question. You is point at them, need is x hand "nodding" once or twice, go is both hands pointing somewhere, and toilet is the t hand shaking side to side. Sometimes I just sign toilet with my eyebrows up.

      Eyebrows up indicates a yes/no question only. For who, what, where, why, when, and how, the eyebrows aren't up, but furrowed.

    • @sign-language
      @sign-language  5 лет назад +1

      Lisa: Something else to consider:
      In addition to yes-no questions -- raised eyebrows can be used to create rhetorical questions out of who, why, what, when, where, how, etc. So, if you see a sign like WHY done with eyebrows up it (probably) indicates that it is being used "rhetorically."

My granddaughter was taught to sign a song in school and now she is very interested in learning to sign so she can talk to a hearing impaired friend as well using this to help others in the future. I would like to get a series of lessons for her to begin to learn this when she has time…she has no time to attend a weekly class. Can you recommend a DVD course. she is an adolescent.

    • @sign-language
      @sign-language  8 лет назад +8

      Because the KEEP sign tends to mean "retain."
      The CONTINUE sign means to persist in an activity or process.

    Bill,
    When you are signing "That's very good" You use a straight index finger pulling away from your chin. Is that "very"? I read on life print (It looks like the sign "BIG" but is done with "V" handshapes.) I just want to double check.

    • @hannahrose8175
      @hannahrose8175 8 лет назад +2

      As far as I know, that sign means anything related to "really," "actually," "am," "are," "is," etcetera, so I would assume that "very" can also be used in place of really and actually. But I'm learning that there are multiple signs for different things, so both could be accurate versions of "very"! :)

    • @m.r5840
      @m.r5840 8 лет назад

      Its the actual sign for "true" ! The sign for "true" can be used to mean many English concepts such as: sure, indeed, absolutely, "you're welcome," real, really, so, very, etc...

      I also love all of your videos and think the speed is just fine. I can just repeat the lessons over and over anyways. You are basically my ASL teacher :)

      Most youtube videos have a speed configuration setting that you can use to slow down the video.

      +Vesna Arguedas I am learning ASL and thankfully discovered you can adjust the speed, I use .50 or .25 if it's really unfamiliar.

      I've been watching his lesson videos. I'm on video #10 now, and repeat some if I don't catch everything. That has given me exposure to ASL and I found this video of 10 common phrases to be at a speed that is easy for me to understand. Have you been watching his other videos as well to get acclimated to it?

    Haha! As a female psychologist (yes, dr. also), I can tell you that “calm down” is not a phrase to be used on women - ESPECIALLY coming from a man...EVER! 🤣

    Way too fast. I had to keep rewinding to see each sign in the phrases. Need to show slower and more than one time.

      I agree totally. This "throwing a bunch of signs at the camera" is not a good approach for beginners.
      I much prefer to teach a real student seated next to me. Try one of my other videos with the one-on-one instructional format.
      For example: ruclips.net/video/ianCxd71xIo/видео.html

      I have done so. This was just one of your many videos I have viewed thanks for all the help.
