    i love that the sign for 'boy' and 'weird' are that similar in BSL. I studied Mandarin in college, and the word for 'difficult' and 'male' are pronounced the same way, different character but same pronunciation. I feel like this wasn't and accident! haha

    so funny story. I'm in the US and I know ASL. I was talking with my friend at work who's deaf, and I've watched your videos so much, I used BSL for person instead of ASL version lol.

    When my group of friends and I used to go out dancing a lot, we kind of made up our own sign language if we needed to get points across. None of us are deaf, but with the music in clubs being so loud, it's nearly impossible to talk anyways. A sign I remember being really useful was one we used if some dude suddenly started dancing with us and was being a bit too pushy, and we were uncomfortable and needed an out/rescue. Basically you would just make eye contact with someone in the group, and put your hand on your neck in a sort of caress. Then your friend/hero would just grab your arm, pull you away, and start dancing with you instead, and help keep a buffer between you and creepy handsy dude.

    Hello Jessica!
    Great video.
    And just to let you know, from watching this, I realized the BSL sign for "what" is the same sign in JSL (Japanese Sign Language).
    Hard-of-Hearing American in Japan. Keep the excellent videos coming.
    Thanks.

    Thank u! I have never studied sign language so this is maybe bit silly question but would just learning the main word of the sentence be useful? Like I don't remember the whole sentences after watching this once but I do remember the signs for a toilet, drink, this song, taxi and home :D

    Do you feel the vibration of your voice when you talk? I've only watched a bit of the video so far but I have similar problems for the opposite reasons. I have heightened sensitivities. I hear white noise and buzzing all the time as well as every other noise. My brain can't tune out background noise. I can't ignore the people having a conversation 5 metres away because I can't hear the person I'm talking to because of it. My eyes are strange too. For a start I lose my vision sometimes. It just goes black. But only for maybe 20 seconds (this is provably because of blood pressure) I also see everything in pixels. Very tiny tiny tiny tiny pixels. I am rubbish at depth perception. I used to do gymnastics. I was actually ok. I think it helped me a lot with guessing depths. I was always terrified of the beam though. I really want to learn bsl because sometimes I can't speak, but I still need to communicate. Unfortunately if I choosethis route, I'll have to teach all the people close to me. I have absolutely fallen in love with your channel. You are also the same type of pretty I want to be when I'm healthier.
    I've just realised I've told a lot of random internet strangers random facts about me.

    Strange of me to comment on a somewhat old video but I thought this was the best video to put it on. Do you have songs you remember from before you went deaf? How do you experience and enjoy music now that you cant hear it the same way?

      I actually can't unless I'm wearing hearing aids, which is a very weird sensation! I think I'm generally quite good at keeping my voice at the correct level but occasionally I have been told I'm yelling (less so that I'm being too quiet, ha ha!)

    @bethsnow246 7 лет назад +2

    Great video Jessica, these will be really useful the next time my friends and I go out! I have a question about sign language, if that is alright? Whenever I am signing I never know what sign to use for "if only" (as in "if only you knew"), so do you have any advice on how to translate that phrase?

    • @jessicaoutofthecloset
      @jessicaoutofthecloset  7 лет назад +1

      Hmm... interesting... obviously the sign for 'only' wouldn't quite do... since 'if only' implies some kind of wish ("I wish you knew") then I would use the sign for wish but still lip pattern 'only'. That's your primary hand with fingers and thumb either side of your neck then move your hand forwards and bring the fingers and thumb together. Does that work for you? x

    @JonahMoskowitz 7 лет назад

    Do you usually sim-com when using SSE or do you just do that for your videos because most of your audience is presumably hearing. I live in Canada and we use either ASL of LSQ (Quebec sign language) and in both French and English deaf communities it is disproved of to speak and sign at the same time. I noticed you mentioned in another video that you feel out of place in both the Deaf and hearing worlds sometimes but I was just curious if it is the same with BSL and SEE as ASL and LSQ in regards to Sim-coming?

    @shalacarter6658 6 лет назад +1

    I have studied ASL and was happy to see that you showed one sign that is the same in BSL as in ASL. "Help". Also, "Help me" and "Help you.' I find it very strange that your hands do not face outward when signing. Also, the numbers in BSL are weird. :) Cheers!

    @LexiStar27 7 лет назад +2

    Are u partially blind in one of ur eyes or fully? My dad can't see the center of his vision in the left eye, which has gotten worse since birth. So like the opposite of tunnel vision. So he only can see the peripherals, but needs to look at the center of the darkness otherwise his peripheral vision will change location (if that makes sense). So yeah he misses a lot of steps and curbs, due to the poor depth perception. He had a lot of injuries due to that before he learned how to determine the depth.

    • @jessicaoutofthecloset
