This is awesome bc I'm a server and my fav customers are deaf and sometimes i don't know how to ask them certain things about their food. But I need to know how to ask FRIED or GRILLED for customers and I can't find it anywhere. And is there a specific sign for sweet and unsweet tea? I need something to teach me how to ask server questions.Please help!
Thank you
Thanks for watching
This was awesome. Thanks
Thanks for learning
I absolutely love how he structures his videos… extremely helpful! I’m hard of hearing by the way 😊and fluent in ASL but tend to sign more PSE
Thanks. I am glad the videos are helpful!
Do you teach somewhere? Or online classes?
Just the occasional video for now
I just learned a lot of new signs!
You are always so willing to learn!!!!!
Hey man! Great video. I started learning with my son, and I've learned that sign language also helps at work when working with loud machines
Your son will think it's cool when the two of you sign back and forth and it will be this private conversation between the two of you!
I laughed out loud at your dad's sign. He must have been funny. Thank you.
He worked at it!
Thank you! This was really helpful. I really enjoy how you put the words in the context of a sentence. Also, how the expressions and variations play into the signing. Our daughter is deaf HOH and she has passed us up LOL!
YEA for your daughter!!!!
Excellent video. I have subscribed. Thank you.
Thanks for watching and the support!
Help. I need advice please. Im right handed, but have lost most of the movement in my right hand due to arthritis, so I mostly try to sign one handed, as much as possible. (I'm just a beginner learner) how can I improve my signing efficiency? Unfortunately, my left hand also has arthritis, just not as severe. But i AM learning. 😊
This is the hard answer...it's just time and practice. One thought...do you warm up your hands before you begin? That may be a way to get your hands and your mind warmed up before you begin.
Love your teaching, my family loves you ❤️, I'm hard of hearing, losing my hearing, finger spelling is a challenge for me, I'm learning sign language to become a interpretor. Thank you much.
Watchers: Teach a child how to sign, JESUS IS LORD. This generation needs to learn to use their voice in many ways. Video personality(you didn't say or sign your name) Thank you for showing the sign "confess" and "repent". Its getting real out there and we have a lot to do.
The word "straw" also uses two F-hands.
Great. Thanks for the addition
@@signlanguagepractice Worthy uses two F hands.
Yes🎉 this video is going to be my favorite, thank you so much
Glad it works for you
Please teach signs describing God Thank you
That is a tall order...what signs come to mind for you?
Thank you , blessings
I appreciate the blessings
Beautiful 😍
Thank you for taking the time to watch. Good luck the next time you use the sign!
Simple and perfect, are knew to me, appreciate you ❤
I am still learning new signs!
Great vid, very helpful!!!
Thank you for taking the time to comment
Thank you!!
You are most welcome
Does referring to a "Judge" not need a person classifier? As opposed to, "He is going to judge the case."
It is a good question. I have not seen the person classifier used with this sign. However, I have seen another sign for "magistrate"...think of striking a gavel
For “KNOW NOTHING” I would translate that as “clueless” or “ignorant”, maybe. 7:42
Excellent answers
Awesome! Iknew some F handsspe words. You added greatly to my vocabulary. I will definitely be practising. Thank you.
I was interpreting a therapy session last week and picked up a new sign...it's a lifelong process
What's the sign for FRESHMAN?
As in Freshman in college...your non-dominant hand is in a "5" shape with the back of the hand facing the other person. The dominant hand, in a "5" shape. taps the little finger of the non-dominant hand, with the little finger tapping in the middle of the palm. Let me know if that is a weak explanation
Do you have a sign for Laodicea??
The city or the characteristics?
I am epileptic. Can you please help with some signs. I slowly lost my hearing and desperately need to learn ASL
The sign for moving and meeting is very similar to family, important, and Interpreter. Can you distinguish between all the two-handed F shaped signs?
Did you see this? ua-cam.com/video/se4COqhOS2M/v-deo.html
Regarding the father/son appearance.. I would have opted for "Your Father, you, look same."
you should add sign at the end which is your pointer finger on both hands point them at each other and spin them
Do you have a video on the apostles and disciples? maybe just their signs .. Or is that regional?
The signs for “disciples” and “apostles “ or their names?
I was here.
1:25 hi Nate
Good stuff. Love seeing more of these "unusual" words when you're looking to move past the basics. Really hoping to see more/lengthier dialogue.
Any examples of words you are looking for?
Have also seen brother/sister signed using L-shaped hands. Confusing when there is more than one way to sign the same thing.
100%. Sign changes by region and person are challenging. The one suggestion is to match the sign to the context and see if you can figure it out.
It would be beneficial to develop one hand signing nowadays especially if you'd use your phone to selfie sign via video call.
Happens everyday. Just imagine the sign using only your dominant hand and holding the phone with the other
Being arthritic in both hands (right hand is severe) I mostly have to sign one handed. 😢
How do you sign "phlebotomist"?
Your dominant hand signs "to draw blood" from the inside elbow of your other arm. Then you sign "agent" as in a person...similar to "teach" and then two flat hands down either side of the body. Make any sense?
@@signlanguagepractice Thank you
You are so upbeat, love watching
Appreciate you taking the time to learn and watch!
How can a person NOT view all this as overwhelming??🤔 (And don't say "You get used to it.". I'm talking about before that.)
Fair. As a CODA, I have been told I really have no concept the challenge of becoming an interpreter.
@@signlanguagepractice Why would anyone say that?? You grew up in that environment.
👏 So good, 👌
Thanks
I always enjoy your lessons. You not only give the vocabulary but several sentences to cement the vocabulary 👍
Hope you’re getting better
Always nice to add a few new words at a time to my ASL vocabulary 🙂 Thank you!
Lifetime project building up vocabulary!
