This is awesome! I love the signs and how you bring them to life! I am a pediatrician and can’t wait to have a chance to discuss superheroes with my signing patients who are fans! I think you need your own channel and a whole series of these. You have a gift and I want more! After you finish superheroes and villains, how about Disney characters?
My son is 4 and this year he was diagnosed with Childhood Apraxia of Speech. We are trying to learn ASL together because we live in a small town where we can't find a formal teacher. Is there any way a video would be made with captions for those of us new to ASL, as well?
Oh... I didn't create this video - I just posted it for my students :) But I could have one of my TA's voice interpret it for you! Plus - incase you're interested, our class has a website that might be helpful to you and your little guy :) afhsasl@weebly.com - check out our page titled "Favorite Links" -- It will take you to some of my favorite sites! There is an adorable family that does vocabulary by topics and it's their little girls who do the signing :) That one is called ASL Nook.
Greetings! My kids and I watched your video tonight to try to learn some super hero names... My son is 6 and is really interested in learning ASL. We would love if your video was captioned for those of us trying to learn.
By definition an idiom must be a group of words (or signs) whose meaning cannot be understood from the meanings of the individual words. TRAIN ZOOM certainly qualifies but TOUCH FINISH is an example of one sign with multiple meanings. TOUCH happens to have one meaning that doesn't match up well with English-- "to be at". FINISH also is only one sign. It has multiple meanings as well. "To complete. To finish. Stop. Already. Done...." Just being difficult to translate into another language doesn't make something an idiom. The signing meaning "take forever" is not an idiom either. It's a single sign having roots in FOREVER.
These must be quite literally ASL idioms because I missed most of what they "meant". When I think of idioms, I think of English terms that might be interpreted into ASL, like "Don't have a cow" or "on the fly" or "the train ran off the track" to name a few. Because while I do understand what you say in that understanding idioms means someone is well versed in that language, there are English speaking people who sign or mainstream deaf people who know/understand/sign "English" (PSE) so intertwining the two languages/cultures would also make sense. (If that makes any sense? Lol)
Interesting Fact: The sign 'bent V on the nose' is used often for 'strict' which is what he explained. BUT in English we do say about someone who is strict that they are 'hard nosed'.
Why is there no sign for *"HERO"?* I laughed when you got to Aquaman. Boring? Really? LOL Travis, you are awesome. Your power to explain the name signs is super. Your Superhero name is ... MIMIC!
This is so cool and dope to learn, thank you for teaching us and for such great facial expressions, I'm grateful for you!❤
this is deaf history.... its was a big thing
Excellent presentation describing ASL idioms!
Sonic. Tails?
Idioms and Metaphors need to be studied in more depth. Some of the examples you showed do not fit either category.

"Cow" ... isn't that the shortened sign for "forever"? "Fish" is really "finish"
Cow-it.. means too long like forever..

Awesome name signs for the super heroes but I always thought that Cat Woman was more of a villain than a super hero.
Well, I always consider her as anti-heroine.
I really enjoyed watching this video! :D Maybe the next one could be Villain Sign Names?
Thank you, Travis. That was AWESOME! I have seen a third sign for Wonder Woman that looks like she is deflecting bullets with her wrist bands.
Travis, thanks dude... and awesome descriptions!!
WHY ALL THE AQUAMAN HATRED!!!! :D
