I've been learning sign language for a few months now, and thanks to you I now dream in sign sometimes. I love your enthusiasm and humor. Thank you for all you've done!
Love your work and humor. Thank you for making these lectures available.
Tell everyone you know. Maybe get a tattoo.
Heh.
(Seriously though: Thanks!)
My biggest respect and appreciation for what you do. Thanks very much.
She’s back! Love your Videos Bill. 👍🏼
Thanks!
Thank you Moonynite! I appreciate it!
We are learning sign language to communicate with our four year old niece. She can hear but does not speak. You make the lessons so engaging and fun. Appreciate your channel! We are taking a course through the community college and the instructor recommended your website. Thank you for your work.
Did I see somewhere to donate ? I can’t find it now is why I ask. Maybe I will bump into it again soon.

Fantastic teaching I’m learning so fast
"Require" is not the same as "need?" I asked ... I mean, if the sign for "available" is the same as the one for "naked..."
Thank you for all the hard work you put into your website and making these lessons available for free; I really appreciate it. I did have one question: how does one distinguish the website sign (WW) from the number 66? The obvious answer is, of course, context, but I didn't know if there was another distinguishing nuance like the tapping difference between "6" and "W." Thank you Dr. Vicars!
The signs for "website" and "66" do overlap. (We could add "World War," "Weight Watchers," "Willy Wonka" and probably a half dozen other concepts to that list.)
In the totally unrealistic and improbable event that I needed to sign: "I own 66 websites" -- I'd switch over to doing a very clear tap-(small)-slide-tap version of 66 and keep the sloppy WW version of "website."
If clarity were essential you could do the tap-(small)-slide-tap version of 66 and then fingerspell “websites.”
If we are being honest here -- many Deaf (not all, but a significant number of us) subconsciously (or consciously) add mouthing to ambiguous signs.
While some online bloggers / vloggers might seek social clout by indiscriminately bashing mouthing -- the reality of the common use of occasional, judicious, subtle mouthing for disambiguation is easily verifiable by observing a wide sample of Deaf vloggers and/or Deaf newscasters.
Also, bravo and good job to you for thinking of using the tap version of "66." Actually just yesterday my wife, Bee, and I -- while walking the dog -- were discussing how 66 through 99 have tap versions whereas 22, 33, 44, and 55 do not. Or maybe (more likely) I was discussing it and she was humoring me.
@@sign-language Wow that IS a cool coincidence haha, and I'm sure Riley had her own input on the subject. ;)
Believe it or not, I didn't know that there actually was a tap version of 66 (or 66-99 for that matter). I'm still a fairly new ASL student, and the thought just occurred to me that another version might exist because of signs like WW. I'm having a little trouble even picturing what that might look like, although I could probably guess.
Your series has been most helpful in expediting the learning process, so thanks again so much. And it's very good to hear back from you by the way. I appreciate the help a lot!
See the 7:38 time code of this video:
ua-cam.com/video/yiIQFsf1pxU/v-deo.html for an example of the tapping version of 88 (tap-slide-tap) in the signing of the year 1988.
Also see the :52 second mark of this video for an example of the tapping version of "66" occurring in the signing of the year "1966." ua-cam.com/video/8Uba2tgT1nA/v-deo.html
See the 6:50 moment of this video to see the tapping version of "77."
The point here is that beginning level ASL teachers often teach students to use a slap-downward-arc-slap-downward version of double-digit numbers but in the Deaf Community we (also) often see a tap-slide-tap used for numbers 66, 77, 88, and 99.
Thus there are definitely two versions of the double digit numbers (66, 77, 88, and 99) being used in the community.
@@sign-language Those videos were definitely very helpful and great visuals. I had to watch them in slow motion to really see it well, but I ended up understanding what you mean now. You don't necessarily have to do the double downward arcing motion to convey those numbers, and it may be used to distinguish between another, similar sign or it could just be how that particular person signs it all the time. You really do a great job teaching and explaining things well. Thank you again Dr. Vicars!
Hello ASL Heroes!!!
Hey, I could really use your help.
If you’ve enjoyed having access to an expert in ASL you can help me continue my work for you.
A small monthly donation from you would instantly make a big difference here at the studio because teachers don’t earn much and I could use some help paying for server and domain hosting for Lifeprint.com.
Right now you can help out a humble (not to mention kind, caring, generous, compassionate, helpful, friendly, fair, and hard-working) ASL teacher -- just go here and a few clicks later you too will be a true “ASL Hero!”
