You should learn Cued Speech (Cued Language Transliteration)

I don't understand ASL but I know how to Cued speech/Cued language

😊

your videos are interesting. i was going to follow yall Instagram and noticed was removed. hope yall are ok? i just discovered your channel. i am hoh and slowly losing my hearing and I love to find videos to watch like yalls

You two are adorable! Thanks so much for sharing your story! God is good and faithful!

Congratulations

I’m excited to take my first ASL class next semester 🥳 I’m hard of hearing but never really been exposed to ASL besides looking up phrases and watching videos online. I know maybe 15% at the moment and really wanna learn more !

My boyfriend Necoas is Deaf, but he doesn't wear his hearing aids much. He doesn't wear them at church because he says the music is loud.

no hate but this is not ASL, it's signed english (PSE). this is important for anyone learning. nothing wrong with it, but you should not call this ASL. it's totally common for people to sign heavily with english influence and that is why it is "easy" to pick up, it's not a language like ASL is. just signs in english word order and grammar. ASL is very very different.

Its hard to read hands and facial expressions at the same time that fast. How long does it takes to get that fluently

Thanks for sharing this. I grew up with 2 deaf cousins. I spent a ton of time with one and know some basic signing, but he read my lips really well and so I didn't have to learn much. I went to a school for the deaf he attended and got separated from him. Noone there was able to hear so for the first time table's were turned and I understand how he must have felt his whole life. Very very eye opening experience.

Have you ever tried wearing Ben's HAs? He could turn them down, & you could try listening through them. It'll be wild, hehe! 🦻😳🦻

Such a beautiful story!!!

Where are u now? U have not been doing any vlogs over a year

I'm thankful I can hear, I have recently acquired two roommates who have hearing loss.

This is so interesting! Love ya Ben. Great channel! I hope I was never the type of kid that would have picked on you.

Nice Meet to u .. I am Malaysian deaf man … I use a bit about using asl but not detail… I use Malaysian sign language but it a bit similar to asl

GREETINGS! can you subtitle or voice over your videos using the actual ASL grammar. that way we can experience the way asl signers understand ([topic] [subject] verb [object] [subject-pronoun-tag]) meaning we will be able to also sign and learn in real time with your stories. (like reading the lyrics to a song) e.g. “Tomorrow vacation go I.” I appreciate your effort and have a great day.

to be very honest with you cochlear implant is NOT for everyone. when a person is born deaf cochlear implant will NOT work . only work on certain people. DONT force deaf people to get cochlear implant ok by the way I'm deaf myself ,speak like hearing person and proud of it. I' m Happy for both of you . I would love to see a lot more of deaf and hearing couple together not just deaf to deaf or hearing to hearing.

Great video!

Just in case you were curious, there is a nerve that runs through the ear canal and if it’s stimulated, like by putting in a hearing aid, it can cause you to cough! It’s called the Arnold’s nerve cough reflex

Also, I’m just gonna say it- what a good looking couple!!!!!

This is such a great and helpful channel!! Y’all are amazing!

I came across your videos and enjoyed watching all of them. You guys remind me of a couple, Cheyenne and bo thompson, from the TV show, superstore. You guys literally look like them.😄

i want know how u and her meet together

Love to see how God has brought you guys together <33 May he bless you guyss

I just found you and already watched all your videos, hope to see more of you and your journey in the future.

plz keep making videos 1k subs coming soon, ive actually been learning sign language from yall. im 3 days in learning i just went on a date with a deaf girl (im hearing) i really like her and i want the learn for her. so you guys are helping alot.

Ive always been passionate about the Deaf community and when my son was 4 he became friends with our friend Zach who was 3 and deaf. Long story short Zach’s MLM and I have been best friends for 27 years and we all sign, teach ASL and enjoy doing life together! God really has an incredible sense of humor putting us all together and I am forever greatful for that! Thanks for sharing your story. Oh and I am blessed to share ASL with the homeless community. They are under served so I am blessed that I can help them with resources!

Holaaa 😇😇😇😇😊😊😍😍😍🤟🤟🤟

hi, an interesting video. I would like to ask, is it also possible for ben to speak?

Your story is so relatable! I had a Deaf classmate growing up and learned to fingerspell and some basic signs. The fingerspelling stuck with me into adulthood and when my daughter (hearing) was a baby I taught her some signs and she picked them up really well. Fast forward about ten years and I discovered the show Switched at Birth and I was hooked! I loved the focus on Deaf culture and ASL on the show really renewed my interest in Deaf culture and ASL, as well as my daughter's and she started reading about it, doing projects at school and learning more A couple years after watching the show I met a guy at a party. I had been noticing him all over town and on social media. He was always looking at me, but never said anything to me. Finally at this party he interacted with me by typing a message on his phone and showing it to me. In that moment I realized he was Deaf and it made sense why he hadn't tried talking to me until then. I used my fingerspelling skills to communicate a bit and we immediately sparked a friendship. His name was Steve and I told him I was interested in learning more ASL, so we started working on it together and that's when it happened. When you're inches away from someone, looking into their eyes and communicating with your hands, if there's any chemistry at all, that's when you'll find out... And we did! We fell in love and after we started dating my daughter started learning more ASL too. Steve and I have been together almost 2 years now and learning ASL has been a highlight of my life and our relationship. It's even inspired my friends to learn to sign, so we're all learning together. Steve grew up as the only Deaf person in his hearing family and unfortunately none of his family or friends has learned to sign, so my daughter and I learning ASL has been such a wonderful thing for him. I believe the Universe brought us together for a reason and I'm so grateful to have him in my life and to have ASL, too. It's been life changing!

Just found you guys, love the video and stories! I'm learning ASL now 😊

I’m completing ASL 2 this summer I have learned so much. Although ASL is a helpful tool I really enjoyed learning about the culture

I completely understand the reading faster part. I had to do a training for work recently and I was done reading the captions for each section but the voicing portion was only half-finished so I would just sit there waiting for that to be complete before I could move on.

Please create more content. I really enjoyed this video. I'm self taught so I heavily depend on You Tube to practice, learn and closely watch how deaf people sign and interact (body language etc) just don't stop signing as you speak that is how I learn. God bless you both🤲🏾❤

awesome🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻

I just found your channel. My fiancé and majority of his family are deaf. Myself and my entire family are all hearing. I really worry about the language barrier but my man always tells me it’s fine and don’t worry. He’s used to interacting with hearing people so he’s not concerned at all lol. I’ve always been drawn to ASL. Such a beautiful language. I’m in school to be an interpreter.

I just recently came across your channel. I think your story is sweet. I look forward to learning more about you guys.

Beautiful story! I am deaf and use cochlear implant. Never went to deaf school, I was mainstreamed. Didn't know ASL until after I graduated high school. It's sad that my parents never told me about it. They didn't want me away from home. Oh well!

I've never been to Utah and it's beautiful place wow nothing like NC

I'm deaf myself and I just want to know how u guys meet?

First off you guys are so cute!! I love your story almost as much as I love you guys! It's so cool how it all came together. <3

Good looking couple 💗

More videos please :)

I am a deaf UA-camr. I'm going after I subscribe.

Well in my neighborhood there is a deaf man, he is like 20 years older than me but he is very friendly, at first I just looked for an eye contact and smile haha but with that I felt like saying hi, then I learned basic signs of my country LESSA (btw I'm from El Salvador) and I started to have little conversations with him, now I know his name, Jorge and it's so great to communicate with him in his language, I continue learning but I think is worth it :) hope u understand my english is not so good
