Like an idiot I turned my volume up at the beginning. This is great, as I have a close friend that signs auslan, but the guy with the mustache is too fast. I could follow all of the others though.
Looks like “you from where”. I learnt “where” from other videos. The moustache guy is fast, I’m guessing ASL first language from childhood. Too quick even slowed down for hearing adults just starting to learn.
The guy in black is doing signs the most 'clean', I would say. The older guy is doing it quite relaxed, in a way that a deaf person would talk to another deaf person.
I'm not currently deaf, I am 13 and I help out at my highschools education support centre. We have a lot of speak impaired or deaf children in their so I've have decided to learn auslan. I thank you guys a lot for helping
0:01 How are you? 0:29 Nice to meet you 0:49 Do you want a coffee? 1:18 Happy birthday 1:40 I think he likes you 2:10 Where are you from? 2:30 Brrr, it's cold! 2:55 Oh, I love it! 3:22 When are you going on holiday? 3:45 What time are you catching the train? 4:13 Please stop that / That's enough 4:38 We are going to dinner, do you want to come? 5:04 Please put the captions on. 5:29 You're funny 5:55 I'm going dancing 6:25 Sorry, I don't understand, please fingerspell 6:55 I watch football 7:22 Now I get it 7:44 Nothing to do with me
Great phrases, thank you for sharing! I've just done a short course and was looking to see how different people sign, this was useful for more practical purposes after learning individual vocabulary. The gentleman with the mustache was a good challenge as his movements were faster and more natural to what I've seen in conversation.
Does it matter if I sometimes use my left hand? I’m ambidextrous and sometimes swap hands without realising it. Would something like “do you want a coffee” still be correct if I signed it with my left hand or is it reliant on hand as well? I agree that a couple of people are a bit quick, we’re beginners so being clear with the motions and hand shapes is important. I couldn’t tell where some ended and another began.
I know this may be really ignorant on my part but I'm a beginner and just a little bit more explanation would really help me... half the time I didn't know which way to look or whether your mouth movement was part of it or not...
I'm self taught with both auslan and ASL (American sign language) but I only know the alphabet so now I'm thrilled to know phases and sentences. Great video
can I ask, is this video mirror imaged? so "nice to meet you" should be a movement beginning with the left hand, or do we have to reverse what they are showing on the video (as in, we should start with the right hand)?
i appreciate all the videos and time taken to create these. unfortunately being new to AUSLAN some of the hand and finger movements are way too quick, blended with the next or not clear. also i find videos with speech as well as subtitles are wonderful. thank you again
Hi! I'm wondering what the 'peace sign' (index and middle finger up, ring and little finger closed with thumb resting on top) means in auslan? Does it translate?
Rihana Awad he is asking the question, it’s sign for how are you finishes with both hands in a thumbs up and then you can answer with good or bad, good being a thumbs up or bad being a pinky up
The convention is that you use your dominant hand to do the main movements when signing and fingerspelling - that's the hand you write with. If you are holding a drink or something with that hand, it's fine to use the other hand. Don’t stress too much about which hand you use - just do what feels natural for now.
Hi guys , yes l think you should do more Phrases for us , l am out of work , so l can't spare money when l should have been teach this at School . (Bad school).
I going to enroll end of July, hope the teacher will break down and slower than in this video. All teachers did tutorial very quick and hard to follow when it is not clear. some phases "Where are you from" unable to get it at all.
Hi, I live in a place where there isn't any auslan teaching, so I appreciate your video. Sometime signs are made a bit quick though and even slowing down the video speed doesn't allow to see the sign properly, what a pity.I'm trying to learn some signs to teach my baby and being able to communicate with him.These are some sentences I'd love to learn:''Are you hungry? Would you like a biscuit? Would you like some more meat, vegetable, fruits? Are you thirsty? Would you like some water, milk, juice? Have you had enough?Have you pood, peed? Do you want your nappy changed? Are you itching? Is there a bug on you? Are you tired? Do you want to sleep? Let's go to bed. Let's go outside for a walk, a play in the park. I'm happy about that, I'm sad about that. Are you happy, are you sad? To attach. Please be quiet, daddy, mother, your sister, your brother is asleep....etc''Thanks for your video :)
Did you ever learn how to do these and teach your baby? Did it work out? I have seen this before over the years through documentaries seeming to be executed well with people's kids
This is a bit late but if you're still wondering, it depends on what hand you write with. Think of one hand as your pen and the other hand as your paper. At 3:50 the man signs "What time..." he signs 'what' with his left hand and when he signs 'time' he uses his left hand in motion on his stagnant right hand. Single handed signs you do with your dominant hand. I hope that makes sense.
Looking tthrough my Auslan sign Langusage book printed in Victoria, some of the signs don't match up with the book. The book wasn't cheap. Feel like I wasted my money.
5:30 I always thought that 'funny' was making a 'thumbs up' hand and running the thumb under the chin and away from your face? The sign she did is what I know as 'laugh'.
This is all too fast, no instructions, they don't slow anything down to break it down, and the guy with the moustache is so quick I can't understand, it's all gibberish. Great, and yet random sentences to teach us, but I don't know if I'm doing anything right because it's so quick and there's no break down of words first
You’d sign your age in front of your nose, so you’d just sign ‘eleven’ in front of your nose. If you look into the numbers video (I think Lisa Mills has one), they may go through ages
Hi Carly. This video was made over 4 years ago for a different screen resolution hence the bluriness. Don't worry, we will be make a new and even better one very soon!
Like an idiot I turned my volume up at the beginning.
This is great, as I have a close friend that signs auslan, but the guy with the mustache is too fast. I could follow all of the others though.
Scott Shanahan same, even try stopping it still didn't work.
Scott Shanahan I was expecting sound. Then realise why... I’m a duffer
There is the playback speed to adjust if its too fast
I turned my volume up too
this comment literally made my day! Laughed so hard
The 'Where are you from?' one is really hard to understand. Try to break the movements up as much as possible :)
3 signs, you (point) when (tap your cheek) holiday (2handsign circle motion).

Good on yer mate pays to Learn early , to give back to community , brings a tear to my eye :)
0:01 How are you?
0:29 Nice to meet you

1:18 Happy birthday
1:40 I think he likes you
2:10 Where are you from?
2:30 Brrr, it's cold!
2:55 Oh, I love it!
3:22 When are you going on holiday?
3:45 What time are you catching the train?
4:13 Please stop that / That's enough
4:38 We are going to dinner, do you want to come?
5:04 Please put the captions on.
5:29 You're funny
5:55 I'm going dancing
6:25 Sorry, I don't understand, please fingerspell
6:55 I watch football
7:22 Now I get it
7:44 Nothing to do with me

Excellent starter - thanks! And although repeating each phrase 3x makes the video 3x as long, it really helps with wrote learning.
The blond girl at 8:00 was the best. I wish she was teaching me. I couldn't really see what the guy with the mo was doing as to repeat it.
So useful . Im going to start Auslan in 2023 going to give a go. Excited but nervous
This is great! I don't know anyone who's deaf, but I've always wanted to learn sign language.
Thanks for the video. I agree the guy with the moustache is too fast.
The gentleman with the moustache is very unclear and difficult to follow
I do agree with that
YES IKR
I agree. Too fast and not held up to camera
Thanks Americano you just helped me

Thank you all for the comments! Some fantastic and some interesting feedback :) What phrases would you all like to learn next?
if you could do these phrases that would be great
- what is your name
- are you ok
- whats up
I'd like to learn the ones the bloke with the mo did. They all went right over my head.
can I ask, is this video mirror imaged? so "nice to meet you" should be a movement beginning with the left hand, or do we have to reverse what they are showing on the video (as in, we should start with the right hand)?
@@sydneydinks I'm also certain it depends on which is your dominant hand.
this very great video i want more auslan and english and very thanks so much :)
i appreciate all the videos and time taken to create these. unfortunately being new to AUSLAN some of the hand and finger movements are way too quick, blended with the next or not clear. also i find videos with speech as well as subtitles are wonderful. thank you again
Love this!!
Still love this!!
thanks for this video!!
Hi! I'm wondering what the 'peace sign' (index and middle finger up, ring and little finger closed with thumb resting on top) means in auslan? Does it translate?
This is really good!!!!!!
I guess vicdeaf has centres in Victoria only...what about nsw? how to learn complete Auslan??? please guide.
Hi Sonya, for classes in NSW, you should contact the Deaf Society of NSW. They run classes for NSW based areas.
With the how are you part, is the guy in video answering it and is saying “im good”? Or is he asking the question?
Rihana Awad he is asking the question, it’s sign for how are you finishes with both hands in a thumbs up and then you can answer with good or bad, good being a thumbs up or bad being a pinky up
I was wondering if the movements needed to be mirrored or not. I really want to learn but I am confused. Thanks.
The convention is that you use your dominant hand to do the main movements when signing and fingerspelling - that's the hand you write with. If you are holding a drink or something with that hand, it's fine to use the other hand. Don’t stress too much about which hand you use - just do what feels natural for now.
Hi 🙂
Can you show me any signs that are different from NSW signs ?
Hi guys , yes l think you should do more Phrases for us , l am out of work , so l can't spare money when l should have been teach this at School . (Bad school).

Can anyone tell me am I suppose to be doing the mirror image of what I'm looking at or the same as what I'm viewing?
This is a bit late but if you're still wondering, it depends on what hand you write with. Think of one hand as your pen and the other hand as your paper.

Maybe it’s just me but some
phrases are delivered too quickly to catch the individual signs.
5:30 I always thought that 'funny' was making a 'thumbs up' hand and running the thumb under the chin and away from your face? The sign she did is what I know as 'laugh'.
You can use the settings to slow the video
nice
Great, but the frame rate is too low for this.
This was really great, the girls were great but the guys seemed too fast. Especially the guy with the tash. Needed to sloooow it down a bit
1:00 That girl looks like she needs to *STAY* of the coffee. I hope one day I can meet a deaf person :(
I should introduce you to my brother :)
RexyFan
Can they talk
Ha
If it's too fast, use the settings to slow it down.
Older man not sign clearly, others easy to understand
This is all too fast, no instructions, they don't slow anything down to break it down, and the guy with the moustache is so quick I can't understand, it's all gibberish.
Great, and yet random sentences to teach us, but I don't know if I'm doing anything right because it's so quick and there's no break down of words first
*Me searching the internet because I can’t find any videos that tell me how to say I am 11 years old*
You’d sign your age in front of your nose, so you’d just sign ‘eleven’ in front of your nose. If you look into the numbers video (I think Lisa Mills has one), they may go through ages
To fast. Slab it down for beginners please
this video is crap. its blurry which defeats the whole purpose and when i slowed it down it was still blurry.
Hi Carly. This video was made over 4 years ago for a different screen resolution hence the bluriness. Don't worry, we will be make a new and even better one very soon!
This is random
