I've been fingerspelling out English words I am looking at and I can literally tell I have an improvement on fingerspelling speed and fluency. However, we need more fingerspelling receptive exercises to practise reading them. These videos are really helpful in learning the language, keep up the work!
I am very slow with them, I had to rewind and catch the letters for the uncommon fruits like passionfruit, kumquat etc., otherwise it was fun. It feels like I have learned something in two months.
I’m an ASL 1 student through Gallaudet University’s ASL Connect program (I wouldn’t have signed up without your channel!!). I’m happy to say I got all of these right 😄
More of these, please! After watching so many of your episodes, I'm pretty sure I could express a general need, or indicate a basic understanding, to a deaf person (which is why I love the bonus content at the end of each of your lessons - I press pause when you give an example of a phrase or statement, then try to sign how I think it would be done, then check your correct version. And I don't do too bad, if-I-say-so-myself). But I need MUCH more experience trying to interpret sign. I watch people on TV and movies, having a conversation or translating, and I'm generally lucky if I get the gist or basic topics. It's useful (and a bit of fun) watching sign, and trying to interpret it. As always, loved the video!
I just taught myself the ASL alphabet today then immediately came here to practice my speed in finger spelling. Seeing the letters out of alphabetical order made me realize how much practice I need to do but by my 3rd rewind, I am catching letters at fast speeds. After playing each word twice, I got all 10 correct! I’m so proud of myself ❤
I got it all! Thanks Meredith for giving the signers the quiz of fruits. I hope that the signers are doing well with their quiz. Have a very pleasant week, Meredith! 😊
Oh my god I got them all right! I have been practicing fingerspelling everyday lately and I can literally see the improvement I got on either spelling the words or reading what other people is spelling. Usually, I practice by spelling out random english words that I think of
OMG this is definitely amazing and so helpful😍 I had to rewind few times but I got them all right! Thank you for this useful video❤ You're an awesome teacher🤟
I missed your hand movement on the double ‘s’ in passion fruit the first few times but finally got it. Thankyou for making this video, it is exactly what I need to practice with.
I realize I really need to understand how to read the letter g It seems like every time I try and do any type of reading of signs whenever somebody does a g I get totally stumped and then I feel like I don't know anything else. Thank you so much these are so great
This is SO HELPFUL to identify the letters I'm struggling with. Thank you! Also realized I don't know how to spell Papaya and Kumquat correctly so I'm learning that too hahah
I don't know if you take video ideas, but could you signs related to mental health? Like if depression and sad have different signs or anxiety and therapist
I got 4 out of 10 😨.. love these finger spelling ones..I really need to practice..I can do the whole alphabet but have to do it over again to get the letters
I did good but could not get the last two. 😂 I finger spelled all the words then rewatched the video and was able to finally see the last two words. For some reason my brain cells shut down for the last two.
SCORE I GET? 💯 I noticed that you started with short words, progressed to longer words, and spelled the longest words near the end. It is a great way to lengthen viewers attention span and build confidence. I seriously think you consider all this before you make videos.
I got the last to wrong I spelt kumquat as rumquat and passionfruit as pasinfruit however I'm proud of this considering i've only been learning for less than 24hrs.
I would appreciate more of these. Didn't realize how slow I am until I tried this test. Thank you for putting this out for us.
Me toooo😂😂😂😂
Kumquat??? 😮 Got the word after so many tries…then, I googled it to see how it looked like. Never heard of it before!
Loved this practice. Thank you!

If it feels like you have learned something, then you have learned something! Keep at it!

This is so helpful! I would love to see more of these to get faster and practicing "reading the word" instead of spelling it back in my head!
I got it all! Thanks Meredith for giving the signers the quiz of fruits. I hope that the signers are doing well with their quiz. Have a very pleasant week, Meredith! 😊

Oh my god I got them all right! I have been practicing fingerspelling everyday lately and I can literally see the improvement I got on either spelling the words or reading what other people is spelling. Usually, I practice by spelling out random english words that I think of
I did it! I finally seem to be getting the hang of not focusing on each letter. Thanks!
I really enjoyed your video. Maybe you guys can go over classifiers or mouth movements next( like cha, ooo, mmm, stuff like that), thanks!
10/10! I had to repeat some a few times but I'm so proud I did it.

I don't think it helped that I had no idea what a Kumquat is.
I would love more to practice - Thank you
I missed your hand movement on the double ‘s’ in passion fruit the first few times but finally got it. Thankyou for making this video, it is exactly what I need to practice with.
Thank you for quizzing. It helps alot
Im killing it!! Number 9 got away from me but to be fair to myself this is the first time i hear a thing such as Kumquat
I practiced right after watching now I’m pretty fast and can Memorize them in order! Could you do more of these they’re very helpful!
I loved this video and this video helped me a learn a lot
Yes, I would like more of these, too. I'm a little slow at reading the letters and comprehending them.
I went to the pool and I used what you taught me!
I appreciate this test. I now know which letters I need to work on. Please do more videos like this.
I realize I really need to understand how to read the letter g It seems like every time I try and do any type of reading of signs whenever somebody does a g I get totally stumped and then I feel like I don't know anything else. Thank you so much these are so great
Im always lost on p and q haha
These are so helpful!
This is awesome, 🥰 I love it
Nice to watch this🤩❤️

This is SO HELPFUL to identify the letters I'm struggling with. Thank you! Also realized I don't know how to spell Papaya and Kumquat correctly so I'm learning that too hahah
You should make sentences quizzes it will be also very helpfull
Hello! I was wondering would able to teach amusement parks. My clients would love to learn this
WOW so different trying to READ...even if you are familiar with the alphabet....i will persevere
Thank you for the test! it help me realized I'm still a bit slow when it comes to fingerspelling. also learned what a Kumquat is today XD
I almost got all of them! Just missed the kumquat because your gs and qs look almost the same so it's hard to tell which is which
Can you do more videos about practicing asl in workplace? Thankyou! That would be really helpful!
I did really great, some letters were hard to catch on but u got almost all right except 2
I got 8 out of 10 so not bad. Please do more quiz videos,
i really struggled with kumquat but this was good practice!
I’m just learning finger spelling and made a 100! But I’d love more videos, they really help.
this was wonderful -- about 7 out of 10 for me and I need to do more of this!
This was honestly rlly good for me to practice. My fingerspelling speed by reading is not too bad at all and I only got kumquat wrong :>
I got 8 right😁
I am pretty much alone on learning this....I use mirror when I can, but thus was great!
im so proud i got 10! i practice the aBC FOR 5-10 MINUTES AND SOME SIGN TOO, I REALLY WANTR TO LEARN SIGN LANGAUGE OR ASL HEHE TRHANK U MMUCH
I'm soooo bad at fingerspelling😣 I had no clue. Thanks for this vid
You are so kind
I don't know if you take video ideas, but could you signs related to mental health? Like if depression and sad have different signs or anxiety and therapist
Yaaaaaaay I got all of them correct, but I don't have a clue what # 9 is....lol
Would like more ASL sentence
I got 4 out of 10 😨.. love these finger spelling ones..I really need to practice..I can do the whole alphabet but have to do it over again to get the letters
More videos please
I needed that because I got 4 wrong. Now I know I still need a lot of work.
got all but the last 2 because I didnt know what kumquat was and passion fruit is a long word
I got 7/10 😊
This just made me realize I didn't know fruit as well as I thought lol
Ty,ty,ty ,, #9 X 🙈🙈🤷♀️
WHAT is a kumquat?!
Passionfruit was the only one I got wrong. That one was harder, but it was fun!
Ha! I only got two. "LIME" and "OLIVE". Maybe three. I think I got the Papaya one. Not too good huh!
wait is an olive a fruit
More😊
Yeah, I had 8 out of 10 correct words and the wrong words were nearly correct, just one wrong letter in each one 🥳
9/10 :)
#9 confused me.
Kumquat got me so confused because I'm not familiar with it. Then passion fruiy, because it's quite long
I was super surprised that I got most of them and the ones I missed I got most of the letters. My brain just didn’t connect.
I did good but could not get the last two. 😂 I finger spelled all the words then rewatched the video and was able to finally see the last two words. For some reason my brain cells shut down for the last two.
I got all except passionfruit. I was having a hard time with the music throwing off my concentration. Lol
I got 9/10. I used the 0.75 speed for the video.
I got 2 out of 10
Got them all except kumquat, which is funny, because I grew up eating them.
SCORE I GET? 💯 I noticed that you started with short words, progressed to longer words, and spelled the longest words near the end. It is a great way to lengthen viewers attention span and build confidence. I seriously think you consider all this before you make videos.
I got all except #9...lol
Good lord I failed. Back to the alphabet
9/10

I spelt kumquat as rumquat and passionfruit as pasinfruit however I'm proud of this considering i've only been learning for less than 24hrs.
