Happy Birthday Ryan!!!!!
so i just started watching your videos and stay safe during this time and can i kno your video scedual please and can i have a shoutout and can you put a link for skillshare please and thank you
If its not to much effort, will you put captions on your videos please , i would like to know what you are saying ....
They have captions, at the start of the vid, it literally tells u to turn on the captions 😂
It kills me how much he reminds me of a young Matt Damon.
Yes!! I think that since the begin the Chanel! 💏🤟🏼🇧🇷
Omg he does look like Matt Damon
That’s it yes!!!
In the mouth and chin he looks like Ryan Lane and when he signs he reminds me of Emmett from switched at birth (Sean Berdy). Though I'm pretty sure someone made the comment about Ryan Lane looking like matt Damon in the show too
wow! I KNEW he looked familiar!😂
My parents are deaf, so I know a sign language. But we actually use Russian sign language here in Kazakhstan. We have some signs in common but it is still hard to understand without subtitles.
Thank you for making such videos!
I always thought there where less difference than more. Guess I forgot the culturel influence. ...
You say Russian SL. But ... Isnt that a Country with several languages? that need Translation in the Duma (Parlarment) ? Maybe it doesnt work to compare spoken Language and SL... The Conzept is way different. Its confusing lol.
@@beakittelscherz5419 each country has its own sign language and they’re not the same each is different.
@@prinzezze I used to know an American Sign Language interpreter. She went to China and Japan and were doing sign interpreting for local people. I always thought sign language is sort of an international language.
@@googleuser5208 There is a different language called International Sign Language. It has to be learned as a new language by people who want to travel abroad and communicate.
I've started dating a deaf guy for about a month now, and I feel so happy seeing such an honest and successful relationship to look up to as a hearing/deaf couple 💕 Much love and best wishes to you both and your lovely fur baby xxx
Update?
Yes! Would love an update if you’re willing ☺️
Awh, thank you for asking. Unfortunately it didn't work out, we had long distance issues amongst the pandemic preventing us being able to plan anything and it led to him feeling like we were victims of bad timing. But, he was incredibly lovely and I treasure our small time together that we did have ❤️ Hope you're all safe and well
@@damienhipwell3124 sorry to hear that but I love your positive attitude! Hope you’re doing well too ❤️
@@damienhipwell3124 that's sad. Hope you guys doing well
Man that's a clean kitchen am I right. Have a good day to everyone that sees this
hahah not that clean😂
I think It is much better than mine
Thank you
you can’t “bless” someone ONLY if they shout you out. that’s lame beverly. you can’t expect something back hahahahah
@@chadstchad what do you mean cuz what I said was that whoever sees this I hope they have an amazing day and I hope they are blessed and I asked for them to shout at me cuz I like them that's all it is
the aggressive “O F C O U R S E” made me laugh 😂
edit: the YAY omfg 😂 this editing?? i love it
The YAY and confetti jumpscared me 😂😂 haha it was great
Same
Same
Had me cracking up 😂😂😂
hiya, i just wanna ask kindly that you stop saying Om** because it can be quite offensive. xx
That "of course" in sign was just beautiful 😂
1:04 : me waiting for Nevada to count the votes😂
Just go to bed, and don't worry about it... The answer will be there soon enough! As I go check the numbers. I am in Georgia, so I have been crazy checking it over and over and over again! We both need to go get some sleep. Nevada said they were going to take their sweet time and count everyone very carefully, and that looks to be true! LMBO By the way, if either NV, PA or GA finalize it will be over. This is the craziest thing ever!
Righttttt lmao
You don’t have to wait anymore. Biden won the Presidential Election
@@RiverWoods111 thank you❤️
When I see this, I don’t just see a deaf person and a hearing person, I see a happy couple who make great content. Keep up the good work
Luv you
The most surprising thing to me in this video was finding out that Ellen is hot-headed. I never would have guessed because she seems like the epitome of chill haha
Love the video. Happy Birthday Ryan
Thanks Mahnoor!
@@SignDuoChannel Your welcome
@@SignDuoChannel happy birthday, Ryan! Sorry if I’m too late.
Sign Duo thanks for the ❤️
@@SignDuoChannel My Bday is also On November 26th ..Can u Wish me?? You are So inspiring 😍❤❤ HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYAN ..MAY YOUR ALL WISHES COMES TRUE AND U SUCCEEDS IN YOUR LIFE ..NO MATTER IF U ARE DEAF OR NOT ..YOU ARE A HUMAN BEING THAT ONLY MATTERS😍❤❤I M YOUR NEW SUBSCRIBER BTW AND I LEARNED ALOT ABOUT SIGN LANGUAGE FROM U ..THANK U❤😇
When you said “all the new ppl” I took a look at how many subbies 😲
So happy for y’all **happy dance**
😄😄😄
Same!! Been a follower for 3 years and I usually never check how many subbs the youtubers have so I’m very surprised now! And happy for them!
when Ellen discussed your investment in each other - I think this is one of the loveliest things I've ever heard someone say about their partner! Love your channel and content, thank you for sharing your life and a bit of insight into deaf culture and a deaf/hearing relationship with us all :)
This is so cool, I have only seen people comunicate with sign language once and that was before I knew a little bit, it's so interesting to me and it's so cool to recognize signs such as coffee, these videos are dope
OOOH Ellen your skin is so clear! You go sis 🔥🔥🔥
The only time she seems to have a breakout is during his hernia experience & surgery. Her focus & concern really made her breakout. That ladies & gentlemen is real love. As she said, she is very invested in them- heart & soul.
My favourite couple🥺🥰✨
Ryan be vibing with his espresso like: *Y a*
its a *V i b e*
@@SignDuoChannel Its a huge *v i b e*
That smile as he said(signed? Which do deaf people prefer?) You have to deal with me and stay with me had me chortling.
They are both just so smart about their relationship and relationships in general. People of all ages can learn so much from them and their relationship. 🥺❤️
Thank you for thinking so Kaylie ❤️ That means a lot
At the VA hospital a fellow veteran told me about your channel. I have tinnitus and slowly loosing my hearing. The specialist tell me hearing aids will not help much because of the type of damage to my hearing. My dog is hearing impaired, I didn't want to keep her but a veterinarian explained how easy it was to sign to her. She is now 10 and terminally ill. My heart is crushing for her. When your dog appears on the channel I notice her watching Ellen sign to her. Interesting to see her watching Ellen's sit sign.
I just wanted to comment and thank you for your channel. I don't know what my hearing damage means for me in the future but I am brave enough to admit I am scared. I do tune people out in a crowded restaurant because I can't focus on what that individual is saying. I stopped asking people to repeat themselves when it is just idle chatter.
The worst is the drive thru speakers. The sound literally hurts my ears and I just can't understand what they are saying. I never knew you could just go around to speak to the actual person. I did that yesterday and it felt much better, thankfully the employee wasn't rude as they were to Ryan. I am young so people often don't understand why a young person would have hearing issues. If you don't have hairs growing out of your ears just yet, you can't be hearing impaired...
Watching the channel and loving your travel adventures.
I like that you guys are showing people that you’d don’t have to rush your life, and can live it how you want to rather than to the expectations of other people. Much love❤️
3:05 "What did you fingerspell?"
idk why but that cracked me up a little
One of their videos was on my recommend, and I just though to myself “why would anyone watch a video with hardly anyone talking in it, it can’t be interesting” I just looked a the video for a few seconds and told myself “no, this seems different. I think I might actually like their Chanel, it’s something different, something I can learn from. Be more understand about it.” I’m so glad I found this Chanel! I love it, I’m mad at myself that I doubted this Chanel and kinda judge it without even watching it first. Im actually hooked on these videos!
i read once how the first thing u thought is usually what your environment taught you to and your second thought is describing who you are.
for example, you see a man wear a feminine kinda clothing and one might thought "ew a man shouldnt wear something like that" but then they thought "but hey its 2020 who am I to judge. you do you dawg" that second thought describe who you really are.
idk reading ur comment remind me of this thought
@@areyoulistening6367 I like both of you already!
Chanel?
i'm not deaf, i know noone who is deaf, i have no conection or interest in deaf culture, i'm not even from USA.
I just find you guys likeable, so here is my sub, i watched a few of your videos and they put a smile on my face so thank you. I wish both a great 2021.
8:37 That extra look Ryan gave her to confirm she wasn't offended when she looked away for a second.
I've just recently come across your videos. After watching several, I have picked up on some words. I am talking to a deaf man now, met online and in person. I'm willing to learn for him, and your videos make me smile 😃
Yesss drone shots! Camera work has UPGRADED that so cool!
Ryan is so wise !! Me and my sister are learning sign now but we are hearing it's just amazing the language of sign,I signed Ryan's name and made a sentence for the first time
All these smiles make me smile!
😁
I love watching your videos, & I am new to watching you guys. I took a sign language class many years ago, & only recently, at my job, come in contact with a deaf person, & was looking to learn some signs, & was looking up videos on youtube, & you were a suggestion the next day on my feed. I try not to judge or assume anything about anyone or about a couple or family, but it warms my heart to see the 2 of you together, & how open you are with posting these videos on youtube. Hope you are both well in this crazy covid time, & hope you both have many more years of happiness & love! (And like I said, I love watching your videos-please keep them coming! You both are truly inspirations!)
not me questioning why I couldn't understand Ryan and then realizing my CC was off...
I am grateful that I can hear, but goodness. I feel humbled by you two. Not only that, watching you two is heartwarming. I don't know how a relationship can get better than you two working it out without vocals. Keep up the content and keep up the love!
Much love from south Georgia, US!
Better late than ever, i guess? Thank you very, very much for giving us a place to learn such a gold language as sign and for especially, teaching us more about respect. Much love from Albania! ✌🇦🇱
Happy Birthday Ryan! I just joined the sign duo community not too long ago when your videos started popping up on my UA-cam page. I’ve been enjoying watching your videos during this pandemic. I don’t have too many experiences in the deaf community but I used to take sign language courses in college. These videos may inspire me to continue my education in ASL classes. So thank you from Minnesota!
At 1:08 it looked like Ellen was going to fall asleep 😭😂😂😭
hahah yeah it was a long morning for me 😆
You two are the cutest couple I’ve seen in a very long time. The love and energy you share online, including the vulnerablitiy and honesty, provides a model for not only intercultural relationships, but ALL relationships, for all of humanity. Thank you for being a light onto this world. 🤟🏾❤️
I love how your videos are really just you guys talking and living your lives, while also giving your audience so much education about your relationship and the deaf community. It’s pretty amazing.
I love how you use emojis in your closed captions. i've not seen it done before but it kinda makes so much sense x
I love watching Ellen sign, there's just something so memorizing about it! Don't get me wrong, Ryan signs just as beautifully, but the way Ellen's fingers move is very captivating!
I am SO GLAD to see you keep the dog on the leash!!! I just started following you an realized that you live really close to us. I work at a job where, if I encountered you with the dog off leash... well that would just suck! I was so happy to see the long line!
I appreciate you guys so much 😊 Always genuine, humble, down-to-earth, and easy-going. Thank you guys so much for sharing your lives with all of us.
If it makes you feel any better, I’m an advanced asl student and my studies of Deaf culture have brought me to your channel. You guys are providing an important perspective on biculturalism that isn’t really available to most hearing people.
Woah you guys are the first UA-camrs I can say I've followed from the beginning - I didn't realise how amazingly your channels grown! I started following you back when you went to Knott's Berry Farm! Sending you love from Scotland 🏴💖
Wow 💕 thanks you so much for being with us for so long. That’s crazy and amazing!
Im really happy you guys got engaged. Im a big advocate for marriage i used to think the same way being in a long term relationship marriage makes no difference but it really does. Marriage is completely different from dating its a whole different field and connection. And not to be morbid but in a life, death situation in the hospital you have no say in anything unless youre the legal spouse otherwise it goes to the family. Theres many other benefits and im so happy for you guys.
I've taken to watching your videos to help myself learn ASL. I catch onto signs either of you do and associate them with words from the CC, then I can usually remember them for later (or in future videos.) It's very useful, entertaining, and informative. I'm slowly getting to the point where I don't need captions anymore! Love your vids! :D
Happy Birthday Ryan! 🎂🥂 I loved the beginning of the video where Java'd nose was sticking out of the blanket. Honestly, it isn't anyone's business if or when you guys decide to get married or have kids. I have a friend who is married, but she and her husband decided not to have kids, and instead they have three small dogs. Animals love you no matter what and I feel like they are the best version of a kid that you could have.
I told my ASL II teacher about you. We watched your last video in class today. Absolutely love you guys. You've taught my class and I new signs and things about the deaf community. Thanks so much for doing this. ❤️❤️❤️ Stay safe!
Like you said about building a bridge, I don't personally know any deaf people but if I ever do, you've helped me understand how not hearing doesn't mean you're all that different
13:50 aww he looked so proud of how she answered that
i love you guys!! Im in ASL 3 and have no friends or family that is willing to learn ASL so i have no practice besides watching people online (and obviously class). Ive been watching for maybe 10 months now, and im here to stay!
Wow, started watching you guys yesterday and I’m already obsessed 😂, now I kinda wanna learn ASL
I'm a teacher of the Deaf and absolutely love your videos!
This was so fun! I'm a newer viewer to the channel this year, so it was great to get to know you both as well ^^ this channel is a breath of fresh air and makes me slow my day down, so I'm grateful to you both for this content
You 3 are the sweetest trio on this planet. Thanks for sharing and showing the CC as it really helps! Love you guys too!
We missed youu❣️❣️
SAME
Happy Birthday Ryan! You guys are so awesome. All your videos make me smile. Stay awesome. Both of you.
Ayyy! The early gang!🙌🏾 when u realize the caption's not on and u understood a little...😗🤗it's funny cause i watch that specific video a week ago and my dog turned one last month!🥰😍
Hey Alauna! Thanks for joinin us early :)
Y'all should leave more clips in of you two just goofing around, it's really heartwarming to see 🙌✨🥰
When they added the "sipping latte" caption for some reason I was dying of laughter
I love what this channel provides the public. Many hearing people have a hard time seeing the beauty and benefit the two of you share. ASL can be useful in other situations and I am grateful and embrace the language and culture and I hope the rest of the world will be able to as well. I wish Ryan a joyful, safe, and a fun filled happy birthday and sending much love to the both of you from the state of Hawaii!! 🥳🤙🤟
Honestly you guys give me hope, you are a cute family 🥺 and I wish you the best ❤️
I like how the two of you work off of each other's strengths and weaknesses. It's how all couples want to live their lives. It just seems natural for you guys.
The most adorable couple on earth
Happy birthday Ryan! I’ve been watching since before you got Java. You deserve all your successes!
"cut and paste" LOL I love you guys!
I took ASL for 3 years in university because I've always been fascinated by different languages in cultures. I found this channel, and LOVE this as a way to practice my very basic ASL AND see this beautiful relationship. Thanks for sharing!
Ryan can you feel when Ellen talks out loud verses when Ellen is just mouthing the words and not talking or is there no difference?
Drone shots and creative angles made the video look very well produced, Sign Duo!! I really enjoyed it!
This is the exact reason that I'm trying to learn ASL so if someone ever walks into my store or I ever encounter someone that is deaf i can communicate in an effective and respectful manner.
Happy (belated) birthday Ryan! Y’all are so fun to watch and your puppy is so cute! 🥰
So 🙋♀️ I'm new here! I love watching you guys, it feels like home 😍 so a lil about me, I grew up in a non hearing household! My dad was born deaf, and my mom caught rubella as a small child and caused one of her ear drums to bust. So they met at the school for the deaf. 😍
They had 2 hearing children lol me and my brother 😍 so I learned as I grew up
Love that vlog segment in the middle☺️ so sweet and endearing to see your family play together ♥️
Also, my wife & I have been married for 42 (soon to be 43) years. Never lived together before marriage. Anthony
Happy Birthday Ryan....You guys are awesome !!
In the beginning when Ellen leans on the coffee press, I felt that. Such a 2020 mood.
Happy birthday, Ryan, from a fellow Scorpio! :D
Ryan and Ellen, I love what you're doing so much! You are beautiful human beings and I'm grateful for this window into your world. Keep doing what you're doing - you're amazing.
Your lady doesnt seem to look at your hands when you sign. Like she can read your words by looking in your eyes. Thats amazing
Only after watching you for about a week, my assumption would be that Ryan DEFINITELY likes things done in a very particular way. Whereas, I feel Ellen would compromise more. 🤷 I haven't watched the whole video yet- just guesses, please don't get offended. I have absolutely fallen in love with this channel. I Even learnt 2 little phrases yesterday in Australian Sign Language, thanks to you guys. I felt motivated to learn a language for years, but could never make a decision on what language. I'm hooked on signing already. I even went into my son's room (he's 19) to show him🤣🤣🤦🤦🤦 of course he wouldn't have understood anything I signed, but I was getting EXCITED and wanted to show someone lmfao 🤪🤷🤣
Happy happy birthday Ryan!! 🥳🥳🥳
Thank you Annika!
Man, you guys are "boss" over the same things my hubs and I are.
I love you guys. You are so kind and loving to each other and to Java. Thanks for sharing this little part of your lives with everyone.
Thank you for including my assumption! I’m both shy and an introvert as well! I have actually been really shy about commenting on your videos lately because your channel is growing so much and I always think my comment will get lost in the sea of comments and you guys will never see it haha. But I’m still here and watching every video you upload! I love your guys channel 🤟
And HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYAN! Hope you had a lovely birthday! 🥳
Hey Mia! I totally understand 😄 thanks soo much for being here ever since. We truly do appreciate that we have the privilege of knowing you Mia, ever since the earlier days. I had a great birthday, just very relaxed! Hope you are staying safe ❤️🙏🏻🤟
Happy Belated Birthday Ryan!!!
When you have the option between cc and a translator on a speech or something, which do you normally take?
Sign language is an interpreter. :) (just FYI not trying to be rude)
@@Whateverhasbeenmynameforyears oh ok, good to know
Learning about the hearing and non-hearing experience is really great, but I think the thing I personally love the most about following this channel is that, we're slowly witnessing two people on a journey about learning how to love each other better. :chef's kiss: you guys are so awesome
I don't ever recall subscribing to this channel which is strange because I just started taking sign language a month ago, what a coincidence
That is really strange lol, hopefully you find our videos useful though Daniel!
The algorithm is watching! Did you view your course content while logged into any Google account in another tab?
Emily P no its on a different device, I have seen one of their videos a long time ago but never subscribed I didn't think so at least but it subscribed me
I know this video is a bit old but I stumbled upon your channel the other day and this video really made me smile. My wife and I are like you guys. We started dating in high school and everybody and their brother said once we got to college it wouldn't last. And then in college everyone said we shouldn't get married cuz we really hadn't dated other people. Well 30 years later we're still together. So you guys ignore everyone and walk your own path. I'm sure you didn't need me to tell you that but it can and does work.
The key (that you've already figured out) is to be a team.
All the best,
Jay
silly question but if ryan‘s a human lie detector, can elle ever throw a suprise birthday party👀 happy belated birthday!!
NOPE! ahahaha
My little sister is hard of hearing this is really cool because me and my family can enjoy somthing family friendly but also learn ASL at the same time love your vids!!
I love how Ellen never tries to speak for Ryan and lets him speak in sign language for himself
Im from Australia and I am in a deaf and hearing relationship.
You guys help me so much because this isn't something that others i know can relate to. Happy birthday Ryan!
Love from India for you guys, I just stumbled across your channel a year ago and since then I've enjoyed your videos. Hope you guys see this 😁😁😁
Love from USA 🇺🇸 and glad you are with us Sebastian!
@@SignDuoChannel Love you guys so much, I'm glad to be here.
It is hard to get to know a community of almost 2 million, but you guys are doing awesome hehe I love your videos
2:18 Ellen's little yay
XD i love it
Happy birthday Ryan!!!! Also all those cool aerial shots 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Question for Ryan: Have you ever tried bone-conduction headphones, and if so, what do you think of them? I use them while swimming, and it’s surprising how effective they are under water. I know it’s different for everyone based on which particular hearing pathway is affected, so I was wondering if you had any personal experience with them. Cheers!
I'm really curious about the answer!
I love watching your videos. I'm not deaf but feel I have some kind of hearing problem. Even before that started I had been interested in sign language, specifically BSL as I worked with a signer who was completely deaf, and I live in the UK. You guys make such a great couple, and with Java, a great family. Thank you for letting us into your life, for educating us, and entertaining us too. Love and best wishes to you. Stay safe. 👍👍👍
the counter- it's so shiny-
Iʻve been watching for a while and i really enjoy your channel. Itʻs helped me to feel more comfortable with learning sign language. I have always wanted to learn. I took a class in college and got scared when i found out that we were going to be interacting with the deaf. I was very young and insecure and so i could not handle the thought of possibly being told i was doing things wrong. Social media has done more for learning now. Thank you for your channel.
*Gets a notification during class*
Me: This is more important
hahah pay attention! This video will still be up after class I promise 😜
Omg! You liked my comment 🤧
OMG!!! I had my first encounter with a deaf mother at work today and thanks to you guys, I was able to somewhat communicate with her. From all your videos, I've learnt how to be considerate and make them feel comfortable. Hopefully I have more opportunities!
