This is definitely the best video I've seen on how to sign. You explain it very well and show us the responses. I have a deaf neighbor so I wanted to learn to sign how are you. I officially signed and she responded with exactly what you showed. She teared up, and wrote on her phone , "how did you learn that" I told her I learned it just for her. I'm going to practice more.
Thank you for sharing your experience! I appreciate that you are learning and it clearly means a lot to your neighbor. Keep practicing and learning. You’ve got this! 👍🏼
I'm trying to learn how to use asl and learn how to respond. You explain it perfectly and I will keep practicing. Do you have any other videos that are like this one
I’m a bartender and I just started learning basic conversation signing and different alcohol sign language just in case someone that is hard of hearing comes in my bar. I think everyone should at least learn basic ASL. It’s so important. Thank you for this!
Thank you for taking the time to learn! I don’t currently have a video for drinks that contain alcohol but I do have a video showing various drinks such as juice, soda, etc. It might help at work. 👍🏼 ruclips.net/video/0bWQfNxFuQk/видео.html
I am here to learn sign language because I have a regular customer that comes into my work who is deaf and I really don’t want her to feel left out. So seeing this video makes things a lot easier since I don’t know where to begin when learning ASL
Absolutely love this , I have a deaf couple that comes into my work & all I had learned was thank you. Now I can at the very least ask how they are & I think it will make their day bc they were so happy when I remembered how to sign thank you!
Thanks for your help. I noticed a man signing in his phone at a coffee shop. I decided to learn how to say "good afternoon, have a nice day and take care". He was shocked when I said those things to him. The smile on his face as he repeated what said was a million dollar smile!! I feel like they are so alone and isolated because no one soaks their language..so I decided to try and engage another person. It seemed small, but it wasn't. Inside I felt so sad. Now I'm determined to have a conversation!! Thanks so much for taking the time to help.. it pays forward in friendship!!!
Thank you for taking the time to learn! Don’t feel sad, the Deaf Community is a close-knit community. ASL is gaining popularity and more people are starting to learn. Keep at it! You are making a difference. 👍🏼
I have a guy that I'm his supervisor and thumbs up and down get us through so much and believe it or not we have a great time and interactions using almost just those and he loves that I try so if you're struggling with communicating with someone don't give up and don't get stressed just care enough to try and remember you might be the only one putting up any effort for that person even if your not great at what you are doing it will be appreciated. Also thank you for taking the time to do these videos and all the extra shots from all sides really helps
Thank you for watching and for taking the time to learn. Your effort is appreciated. You are so right about the "thumbs up/down" that's why I mention it. It's universal (at least in the US). Thanks again!
I appreciate watching this so much, I’ve recently become eager to learn sign language for customers as well as a co-worker I have and these everyday motions are going to be very helpful with starting a conversation or greeting someone so thank you for being clear and repeating your motions!
Thank you for watching and for wanting to learn! I try to keep my videos simple and to the point. Slow and steady with some repetition. I'm happy to know that my videos are helping!

Thank you so much for the nice comment. Learning ASL takes time and mistakes will be made along the way. It's good to know you can fall back on the "thumbs up" and "thumbs down" if you are stuck.
Hi, I just started a job at Costco and a woman came through and gave me the sign for thank you. I gave it back but realized that's all I know. I am here to learn basic signs that would pertain to my job like, 'did you find everything ok'. Thank you as I have learned a few things.

My opinion on this video: Helpful She explains it very well easy to do fun nice! My opinion on sign language: fun!! Easy in some cases a good thing to know how to do so yah its good to know Sign language because what if You stumble and do someone who's deaf And only speak sign language it would be good to be able to answer back cause otherwise what would you do walk away that's rude so sign language is important and fun! I'm going to sign language classes at my church! And I thought it would be good to use these vids to teach me so next class I could show my teachers! So ty! Btw this picture on my comment the Profile picture thing whatever it is is not me that's my mom...❤
I'm glad I found this video. I was just talking to my daughter about how I feel like sign language should be mandatory in schools. I just wish I had the money to actually attend a full class 😕
Im a school bus monitor and my kids which range from middle to high school sign, however i dont because for a monitor is not a requirement (thing i will speak about to my boss) My point is i seen your videos today and was able to comunicate with most of them with at least the basics and i wanted to thank you and Bless you!❤
That’s awesome! Thanks for watching and for taking the time to learn. It means so much to be able to communicate. I’m sure your efforts were appreciated.
Thank you so much for this video. I have a Co worker who signs. And because I use a mask most of the time at work, I'm not able to mouth things to them. They were so happy when I started signing (hello - how are you?). I'm excited to learn more from your videos and grow a better friendship with him.
Your lessons are great for learning. Amd i can at least hold intelligible conversations in sign now. But i have a bit of an issue in that every ASL video ive seen on YT (not just yours) is all conversational things. Things thats would come up in a conversation between friends or coworkers, or two random people, customers etc. Im trying to be able to sign a demonstration at the wildlife rehab and educational center for a deaf family since ive noticed theyre trying to lip-read. One, its hard to lip read when you're in the audience and not face to face and two, they're missing a lot of the fun parts because their focus is on my face instead of the animals. We also have a bunch of non-verbal and/or deaf kids come through on field trips that usually end up hanging out at the back awkwardly because lip-reading is a learned skill and i dont have the words in sign language to properly convey what I'm verbally saying/explaining. I know they must exist, theyre common enough words, they just arent things that generally pop up in everyday conversation so i cant seem to find videos on them.
I want to thank you for taking the time to try and learn. I imagine that you must be frustrated not having enough ASL to sign everything that you want to say. As with any language, learning from videos alone will never be enough. I am curious as to why this responsibility is falling upon you? You mention that D/deaf children often come through your center on field trips. Has there ever been an interpreter with them? Signing a demonstration should not be your responsibility for so many reasons. As for learning ASL, YT videos can be a great resource but ASL is a language with grammar rules that differ from English. I recommend italkie.com for one on one lessons with ASL instructors. (I use it for Spanish lessons). An "in-person" ASL course is needed in addition to practicing with individuals who are fluent in ASL. It takes years so be easy on yourself. Again, thank you for watching and wanting to provide access to your demonstration.
I started a new job in a fruit and meat market and have two regular customers who struggle with communicating what they want. By using simple phrases that are taught here, the customers seek me out for service behind the meat and deli counter. I feel a connection with these people as my hearing has started to disintegrate. I've learned that the emotions behind sign language are key. While I cannot keep up with a sophisticated q&a, I can at least communicate with a smile, and a thumbs up. And with these videos, I can start to connect at a deeper level with my customers. Thank you so much for you content.
Thank you so much for sharing your story. I love knowing that communication is happening as a result of people like you putting the time and effort into trying. Thanks for watching and taking the time to learn.
@@ASLLOVE Thank you for your kind words and taking the time to reply. You mention that you get requests, and I'm sure I can google the ASL, but I appreciate your candor and enthusiasm. I would love if you could do a "food" based ASL how-to-sign. Perhaps relating to the steak, chicken, pork and salad/deli?

Hello. First let me say, thanks for the information! I'm a bartender and like to try and make an effort to learn a few gestures to make guests feel more welcome. I tried to give a hearing-impaired gentleman the "your welcome" sign that I saw on your channel and he laughed and informed me I was signing "It's fine". Then he showed me like a semi-cupped hand, palm to the sky, towards his chest. He let me know that was thank you. Could you by chance clarify this for me? Thanks again. I want to make people feel welcome and appreciate any help.
Hello and thank you for learning! I am very sorry for any confusion. You absolutely did sign "fine" and that is an acceptable response to "thank you". It just may not be the customer's preferred response. Please know that there is no sign (ASL) for "you are welcome" but there is a sign for the word "welcome". Since they have different meanings, they are not interchangeable. The sign that was shown to you for "thank you" (by the customer) sounds a lot like the sign for "welcome" but without seeing it I cannot be sure. Thank you for trying your best and please know that you did not sign anything wrong. If you would like to contact me at learn2asl.com I can explain in more detail.
I work at a grocery store and it doesn’t happen very often but sometimes we get deaf Or customers who are head of hearing and I want to be able to communicate with them even if it’s just asking how they are
I have not seen much of your videos, from what I have viewed I like what and how you illustrate the signs and describe the motions and the variations. But I do not see you explain the facial expressions that go along with the signs? I do know that you can’t sign “nice to meet you” and have a dull frown on your face! Maybe I need to watch more, which I will do as the days go by. But great job and thanks for all your work.
Hi and thanks for watching! You are right, facial expression is a must when using ASL. I definitely mention it and show examples in plenty of my videos so keep watching and you will notice.
you are amazing... you have given me some practical abilities to communicate with my friends who has lost there abilities to speak and hear along time ago.. the surprise of me learning these methods and them getting to speak to them again.. made them cry. thank you so much.. i look forward to watching and learning more from you. pray that you keep teaching signs.. so i can keep surprising them every step of the way... from CULLAM89
Hey Dana. I have started to teach myself ASL and your videos are very helpful. But I was wondering. I know ASL sentence structure is a little different from English sentence structure, of course, and a few minute words are omitted. Even though 'are' is omitted in the question 'how are you?', why does the sentence have to be 'you how?' in ASL? Do you always have to change the order or could you just say 'how you?'
Hello and thank you for watching. I apologize for any confusion but I do show in the video that you sign HOW first and then point in the direction of the person for YOU. You are correct in thinking it should be HOW-YOU? That is how it is done. Also, you could simply sign HOW? (with a slight lean forward) and raise your eyebrows to show that you are asking a question. Here is a more recent video in a short format. ruclips.net/video/F8oD0_KEQas/видео.htmlfeature=shared
Question!? I would like to learn sign language but I was wondering if for some work! Does it matter what hand you use!? Are there some works that can only be said with the right hand only(example)?
Hello and thanks for watching. You lead with your dominant hand. There are plenty of signs that only require one hand in which case you would use your dominant hand. I am right handed so I would use my right hand. If you are left handed, use your left. It will feel natural.
Thanks for watching! That's a great question. I had to re-watch the video because I'm surprised that I didn't include "bad" as an option. You could sign "not" before signing "good" or check out this video for "bad." ruclips.net/user/shortsx_HOIHlbKM0 ruclips.net/video/cl2ct4KZUCI/видео.html "not" ruclips.net/user/shortsJ7L6df4s4aU
@@ASLLOVE Great, thank you so much for the quick response and the link! My daughter and I are working on some greetings this week (we're doing ASL as our "foreign language" in our homeschool). I appreciate your videos!
I am currently working on a series of "Animal" Sign Language videos but in the meantime check this video out. ruclips.net/video/tmj6sIqs-fw/видео.html Pufferfish would be spelled and then described.
@@ASLLOVE So marine animals will eventually be included in it? If even they’re not included, thanks for helping me find a video that has the signs for them.
Does it matter which hand you use when you're only using 1?? There's a deaf girl at this store i visit alot who checks me out, I'd like to Communicate with her somewhat but i know nothing about sign language
Fine is a bad sign, ok is better. Culturally, deaf people prefer you to actually answer the question. Like hungry, tired, rested, in pain, pissed off, busy, etc.
Great question! ASL is a language with its own grammar rules. (not English word for word order). There isn't a sign for the word "are" in ASL. (there is a Signed English option). The concept of "are" is part of the overall context of the message. You can express this a few ways depending on the meaning that you are trying to convey. A head nod for example can mean "Yes, they are." (in response to a specific question of course.
That'a great question. ASL is it's own language, separate from English. It follows different grammar rules. In order to truly learn the language you will need to immerse yourself in an environment that provides Deaf culture and ASL. At the very least, in person lessons are a requirement.
@@ASLLOVE Maybe it would not be ethical to say the "teachers" who were teaching here on RUclips. But one is deaf, and the other is in a ALS channel too. But, thank you for your answer.

@@ASLLOVE I get a lot of deaf/h.h. customers and a lot of your videos will definitely help me connect with them even more 🙏🏼
@@victorenriqueperez I’m happy to know that my videos help!
Beautiful
This is helping me out so much thank you!!
I’m happy to know it helps!
My first sentence is: Hi good morning. Nice to meet you how are you
That’s a great place to start!
This was great. Thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you for watching and learning!
I work at a grocery store and it doesn’t happen very often but sometimes we get deaf Or customers who are head of hearing and I want to be able to communicate with them even if it’s just asking how they are
That's a great reason to want to learn! Hopefully you will be able to use ASL more often.
Thank you!!
Thank you for watching!
this was a cool video to watch thank you
Thank you for watching!
I have not seen much of your videos, from what I have viewed I like what and how you illustrate the signs and describe the motions and the variations. But I do not see you explain the facial expressions that go along with the signs? I do know that you can’t sign “nice to meet you” and have a dull frown on your face! Maybe I need to watch more, which I will do as the days go by. But great job and thanks for all your work.
Hi and thanks for watching! You are right, facial expression is a must when using ASL. I definitely mention it and show examples in plenty of my videos so keep watching and you will notice.
you are amazing... you have given me some practical abilities to communicate with my friends who has lost there abilities to speak and hear along time ago.. the surprise of me learning these methods and them getting to speak to them again.. made them cry. thank you so much.. i look forward to watching and learning more from you. pray that you keep teaching signs.. so i can keep surprising them every step of the way... from CULLAM89
Thank you for watching and learning! I love knowing that your friends appreciate your efforts.
@@ASLLOVE aww thank you it really means so much.. :)

wow ok I think you should do are you😁 good
Thank you Rosmariana for the idea!
Hey Dana. I have started to teach myself ASL and your videos are very helpful. But I was wondering. I know ASL sentence structure is a little different from English sentence structure, of course, and a few minute words are omitted. Even though 'are' is omitted in the question 'how are you?', why does the sentence have to be 'you how?' in ASL? Do you always have to change the order or could you just say 'how you?'
Hello and thank you for watching. I apologize for any confusion but I do show in the video that you sign HOW first and then point in the direction of the person for YOU. You are correct in thinking it should be HOW-YOU? That is how it is done. Also, you could simply sign HOW? (with a slight lean forward) and raise your eyebrows to show that you are asking a question.
Here is a more recent video in a short format. ruclips.net/video/F8oD0_KEQas/видео.htmlfeature=shared
@@ASLLOVE Oh. Thanks for replying and clarifying.
Question!? I would like to learn sign language but I was wondering if for some work! Does it matter what hand you use!? Are there some works that can only be said with the right hand only(example)?
Hello and thanks for watching. You lead with your dominant hand. There are plenty of signs that only require one hand in which case you would use your dominant hand. I am right handed so I would use my right hand. If you are left handed, use your left. It will feel natural.
Thanks for this video! How would you sign "not good" or "bad" as a response to "how are you"?
Thanks for watching! That's a great question. I had to re-watch the video because I'm surprised that I didn't include "bad" as an option. You could sign "not" before signing "good" or check out this video for "bad." ruclips.net/user/shortsx_HOIHlbKM0

"not" ruclips.net/user/shortsJ7L6df4s4aU
@@ASLLOVE Great, thank you so much for the quick response and the link! My daughter and I are working on some greetings this week (we're doing ASL as our "foreign language" in our homeschool). I appreciate your videos!
@@beccakarner266 No problem and thank you for watching! If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
good job!
Thank you!
Hello was wondering if you could make a video on signing marine animals? (ex: pufferfish, shark, whale, sea turtle)
I am currently working on a series of "Animal" Sign Language videos but in the meantime check this video out. ruclips.net/video/tmj6sIqs-fw/видео.html Pufferfish would be spelled and then described.
@@ASLLOVE So marine animals will eventually be included in it? If even they’re not included, thanks for helping me find a video that has the signs for them.
@@rgat1756 that’s the plan! Currently working on farm animals and pets. Thanks for watching!
Does it matter which hand you use when you're only using 1?? There's a deaf girl at this store i visit alot who checks me out, I'd like to Communicate with her somewhat but i know nothing about sign language
You would use your dominant hand. 👍🏼
Fine is a bad sign, ok is better. Culturally, deaf people prefer you to actually answer the question. Like hungry, tired, rested, in pain, pissed off, busy, etc.
Pretty sure it will be an individual choice
I see the shadow moving ?? 😮 Great Vid tho
Hahaha love it. Thank you!
Why is ‘are’ omitted?
Great question! ASL is a language with its own grammar rules. (not English word for word order). There isn't a sign for the word "are" in ASL. (there is a Signed English option). The concept of "are" is part of the overall context of the message. You can express this a few ways depending on the meaning that you are trying to convey. A head nod for example can mean "Yes, they are." (in response to a specific question of course.
I have a Deaf coworker and I want to learn to talk to him :)
Thank you for watching and learning!
How to sign will be and will
0:40 Why?
That'a great question. ASL is it's own language, separate from English. It follows different grammar rules. In order to truly learn the language you will need to immerse yourself in an environment that provides Deaf culture and ASL. At the very least, in person lessons are a requirement.
Hey can you is the food good or how is the food in sign language
To ask about food that someone is eating, you could sign; FOOD + GOOD? FOOD + LIKE + YOU? ruclips.net/video/cl2ct4KZUCI/видео.html
Where I am not fine
Simply sign the word “fine” and shake your head no.
I have seen that "how are you:" sign in two other different ways. Would all the three forms be linguist variation
Hello Daniel, I'm honestly not sure if the other 2 ways you have seen are correct without seeing them myself.
@@ASLLOVE Maybe it would not be ethical to say the "teachers" who were teaching here on RUclips. But one is deaf, and the other is in a ALS channel too. But, thank you for your answer.
Is it american or british
American
