Same, but that doesn't mean people can't learn afterward or even during. It is a great language, and in fact, thanks to the internet, ASL is easier to learn now than ever before :D
@Wendell Parham hey try getting people to use this for fingerspelling it requires nothing and you learn it instantly so when put in schools they won't forget it as it is alphanumerically based. please use a downloader if you are threatened by nazi's it doesn't give me a view that way. they won't know.
I took sign language classes for free at my church and several $50 classes in my community. It was great. It can be a little nerve wrecking getting in front of a group of deaf ppl, but they really appreciate what you've learned and that you can communicate with them even if it's only basic signs.
The best way to get better is to sign and spend time with Deaf. Something to keep in mind: Deaf tend to be very honest and straightforward, so if you sign something incorrectly and someone tells you about it, that's a good thing. While it can be daunting, if we correct your signing, or come off as nitpicky, or anything like that, it means we think you're worth the effort and want you to improve!
I have learned SO much in just the first 2min of this video! My mind is blown by my ignorance of ASL. Thank you for inspiring me to change this ASAP! I'm looking forward in learning more about ASL and sharing this video! 😻
I just started learning some ASL a few months ago. I am learning from the Sign Duo and Bill Vicars both on here. But Bill Vicars also has his own page. He is an actual ASL teacher in the US. The Sign Duo are a hearing and deaf couple and recommended hands down Bill Vicars.
Tony M so am I!!! another one I love is The Daily Sign she does Alot of covers and since I'm a musical nut I learn the signs pretty easy by following the songs I know. plus she signs PSE which I find is more what I do then ASL. The Sign Duo and Bill Vicars are fantastic, I've learned so much watching videos on RUclips. I also recommend this app called a ASL Dictionary, it's like 3 bucks and has thousands of signs to learn from, they show you in video form how to sign them all and theres even a search bar so it makes it easier to look for specific signs. Hope this helps ❤
Excellent! This is beautiful. I am an African American Teacher of the Deaf and I am proud to associate with and celebrate such diversity within the Deaf community of people. 🤟🙏
I like that she mentioned that she is deaf even though she can speak. I'm anosmic (unable to smell) and people think I can smell a little bit since I have food preferences. Taste is not 100% based on smell.
I met a young woman once when I went to an ASL club. She said she was from a family with two deaf parents and a deaf sibling. She said that ASL was almost more comfortable than talking even though she had normal hearing herself. She also couldn't mix ASL with speech, she said it just felt wrong somehow. It was interesting.
I always wanted to learn some. My problem is due to stiff hands from old injuries and such, some of the signs are actually kinda painful. Maybe I should do it as physical therapy, it might help with the flexibility of my hands.
Wow! It's really inightful to study ASL for a few months in a college classroom, then watch actual deaf people sign. They're a lot less formal when signing. Like when people learn English and don't know certain slang like "gonna" and they say going to.
Because I acquired spoken and wriiten English before myhearing loss happendd, Iunderstand SEE, better than ASL. I get confused about how to express with less signs for words and phrases that ASL seens to have signers implement than SEE. Please explain that on detail (I am very literal, and therefore, need more literal and detailed explanations). I can still understand snc sign in ASL, but not as fluently as I'd like to sign than in SEE.
Is there any way to find out who the black lady is in this video? My daughter is 6 and interested in learning ASL. She keeps watching this lady over and over again and asked if she could meet her! I know it's a long shot, but the comments section can be a powerful place.
The lady in the last section of the video. Ran across someone that was indeed deaf, but could speak and understand general gestures and lip reading. Someone tried to call them out on "faking it" and got put in their place rral fast. Neeeeever judge a book by its cover folks.
I'm hard of hearing. But prefer to sign, but do talk , people tell me quit faking being deaf, don't use your hands. I do not lip read. Why can't hearing people understand better.
How do you sound so well in so good not a good country and I wonder about a lot of things. I don’t know. How are you guys sign so good language I won’t be in the culture to the same way you are, but I am in different language.ASI
this might be so ignorant but im actually curious. how would a black deaf person feel about a white person learning or using some black asl? would that be considered racist?
Of course it is, or I should say It would be seen as. You could feel her entitlement and borderline racism coming out in her. Sorry, culturism. I wanted to apologize to her entire time on screen.
@@redlee3391 Seems like you're the sensitive snowflake here. I don't know why you get your panties in a bunch when people acknowledge cultural differences. Black Americans sign some words differently or have signs for phrases that white deaf people don't use. Why does that bother you so much? It's just a fact.
Good video. Would be better with out the social justice warrior talk about what she takes offensively and what it means to be BLACK and deaf, not just deaf. Because we always gotta make that a thing, right? Also... "deaf" is literally defined as hearing impairment. Gimme a break.
Clearly you didn't understand anything. Most Deaf people prefer to be called deaf, so you are veing rude to dismiss her points. The purpose of this entire video is to educate the ignorant people who know nothing of Deaf culture *cough cough* you. They prefer Deaf because they don't view it as an "impairment", they accept it as who they are and are proud of it. She was not the only one who brought up how their race/ethnicity/separate cultures influenced their "accents". Go study Deaf Culture before attacking a Deaf person.
Black Deaf individuals grew up in an entirely different system learning ASL. Keep in mind, when school started up and coming forth, the Deaf culture was very diverse, and many had home taught sign language. The diversity was split between white schools and black schools, as they were not allowed to integrate, and even when they were allowed, it took extra years to get everyone integrated. Deaf schools were difficult to form because everyone had different methods of ASL at this point. There were not real textbooks on ASL. You sounds like a dumb ass. Do some research.
@@aob6033 The funny things is you are to ignorant to know that her 'hearing impaired' comment had nothing to do with her being black. There are countless videos and post about it from non black people as well. You and Erin are simply showing that you have an issue with certain skin colors and should just say that. It would be quicker.

I REALLY wish more high schools and colleges would offer ASL as a language option. I most definitely would have utilized it
Same, but that doesn't mean people can't learn afterward or even during. It is a great language, and in fact, thanks to the internet, ASL is easier to learn now than ever before :D
Too hard for common Americans... Spanish is optional but people don't wanna try anything difficult.

The thing is spoken vs signed languages don’t fall in the same category
im watching this video as part of an assignment for my high school ASL class!

I was so scared of my deaf ASL teacher 😆 she was definitely more straightforward than I was used to

They sign beautifully. Signing in your sleep is either the funniest or coolest thing ive ever heard of. I wonder what she was saying.

so am I!!! another one I love is The Daily Sign

me too!! im learning from sign duo, bill vicars, and daily sign
@@Mariaobsidian365, The Daily Sign, does everything wrong and teaches it even though she's hearing and not fluent.
I live in Canada and I love Dr. Vicars approach to signing.
I started studying ASL in February. Just like other languages I have studies I've started to dream in that language.
Excellent! This is beautiful. I am an African American Teacher of the Deaf and I am proud to associate with and celebrate such diversity within the Deaf community of people.

what a great video! thanks for sharing
Thumbs up and onto my favorites playlist. Extraordinary people, amazing video!
exceptional video NPR. I crushed the thumbs up on your video. Maintain up the amazing work.
Good job NPR! I thought about learning asl interpreting for a while
I'll always remember you trippin. Thank you.
Ciro Amaya lol
As a hearing person who is interested in learning ASL, this video was appreciated!
Great video! Thank you so much.
Great information! Awesome speakers!
The guy sharing the story of his daughter signing in her sleep had me cracking up. How cute! 😂
I always wanted to learn some. My problem is due to stiff hands from old injuries and such, some of the signs are actually kinda painful. Maybe I should do it as physical therapy, it might help with the flexibility of my hands.
finally I am actively fulfilling my dream to learn sign language

Hi! That's me - I would definitely love to meet her! :)
@@febe2005 How awesome that you replied! Did you all ever end up connecting?
Fantastic vid
Being taught how to sign in your own country should be just as important as being taught how to speak and write.
Wow, so informative.
Wow I learned a lot watching this video
The lady in the last section of the video. Ran across someone that was indeed deaf, but could speak and understand general gestures and lip reading. Someone tried to call them out on "faking it" and got put in their place rral fast.
Neeeeever judge a book by its cover folks.
Loved this do’s much

How do you sound so well in so good not a good country and I wonder about a lot of things. I don’t know. How are you guys sign so good language I won’t be in the culture to the same way you are, but I am in different language.ASI
why is this video mirrored..its making me hard to read their signs...okay fine i dont know ASL but it is mirrored ..just to point that out
That last comment was Deuces no joke🃏!
this might be so ignorant but im actually curious. how would a black deaf person feel about a white person learning or using some black asl? would that be considered racist?
like a white deaf person?
