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 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.
You can help out a humble (not to mention kind, caring, generous, compassionate, helpful, friendly, fair, and hard-working) ASL teacher -- just go here right now and a few clicks later you too will be a true “ASL Hero!”

Hello Bill, I just purchased your SuperUSB. I am a note taker for a gentleman who is deaf in a class of mine so I thought I better get up to par on my ASL. Do you have any instructional videos on how to do the splits? LOL J/K. Your videos are great and the service you do helps more people than you could ever imagine. Great teacher, great personality and a very good person. Wishing many Blessings for you and your family.
When we’ve got the extra cash for donations I am gonna for sure. This is supplementing my online class and it’s so helpful. I have a co worker that is half deaf and I practice on him. Today I watched lesson four on my break the. Came back and sign,” hey can you take the trash out?” I was like yea! I just learned that! Lol and hamburger...that’s important at McDonald’s.
Hopefully I can help out soon. Thanks for the great videos!!!
Can you add a way to give monthly through a debit or credit card?
@Evelyn Corona
Hello :)
When the PayPal donate link is clicked on (if all goes well) it takes people to a page where they are given one of two choices:
Donate with PayPal
Donate with Debit or Credit Card
On that same page is a little box that can be checked to "Make this a monthly donation."
Here is the link:
www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=XHRNABERKJT4N
If that link doesn't work from here, consider trying the PayPal button from my donate page at: lifeprint.com/donate/
Thanks in advance!
I appreciate the support.
@@sign-language Yes-, thank you. I know about the link. The problem is that the only way to do recurring donations on that site is through PayPal. Does not allow recurring donations in any other way.
One thing (of many) that I love about these videos is how you can see Katelyn improve with each passing video. As a learning ASL student, I find myself matching her levels of confusion vs. understanding very well -- and feel similar pride at how much we are learning!
I was just thinking the same thing - I would love to see where she is at today!
You reach so many types of learners! The visual , kinetic and then return demonstrate with the practices. Love your videos. Thank you Dr bill !
You are certainly welcome! Thanks for the nice comment and mentioning the visual / kinetic aspect of the instruction. To me it is very important that people who are Deaf but who don't yet know ASL (such as those who became Deaf later in life) can do so in a visual-based approach.
You can tell she likes the sign for "bird". She has a clear smile every time!
You had me smiling the whole time! Thank you for these videos. :)
I study english spanish and sign language I loved these videos thank you
how is the journey? como vas? i speak spanish, english, learning ASL and want to learn portuguese

starting lessons over again and up to this Lesson 10.
Every time I practice the sign for 'dog' my dog looks at me :D
Good dog!
you’re the definition of a sucessfull person
Fortunately, my favorite book has a title that's easy to sign!
"One Eye Laughing, The Other Weeping."
It's a fictional diary set during the start of the Holocaust. It's really good.
Thank you for these videos. I mentioned in another video that I work in HR at my job and we just hired a deaf associate. So I was looking to find simple work related signs to teach the other employees. That way they can sign some things (like lunch time, see you tomorrow, it's on aisle 16, etc) instead of writing everything down. I stumbled upon your videos and now I can learn enough to surprise him lol! I will also be mentioning your channel for them to study on their own!
Be sure to check out his website too, there's a lot of great resources there too. lifeprint.com/
At 36:00 That's impressive!! On TikTok, there's a guy who gives similar challenges for cognition and neurological engagement. For example:
Make two upright fists, at natural arm width apart, and point them at each other.
On your right hand, stick your thumb up.
On your left hand, stick your pinky out (pointing at your other fist, essentially)
... then try to switch them at the same time nice and fast (i.e. left hand now has the thumb up, and the right hand has the pinky out). I bet you'd crush it Dr. Vicars!
HOOYAH! Crushed it. Interestingly, the next morning it was a lot easier. I think if someone practices that just before bed -- their subconscious mind keeps practicing it all night. LOL.
@@sign-language i kept having to look at each hand, "OK, Pinky... you go. Now it's your turn thumb-on-other-hand." 😂
Found out something interesting while watching your videos: my right hand is dominant, but I spell *significantly* better (in all aspects) with my left.
i love the cow-cat challenge!
Dr. Bill, at 32:43, are you using the sign for "strong"? If so, are you communicating that you look strongly like your father?
Yes, that is what I'm signing. That I "resemble" (LOOK-LIKE STRONG) my dad.
Please forgive me for the constant questions.... What is the meaning of the sign at 38:13, which looks like two interlocked "L" hand shapes?
That is one of the signs for "run."
As far as the constant questions, I recommend you consider applying to join the Lifeprint-ASLU Facebook group and asking your questions there. That is the main reason for the group is to discuss ASL in general and what they are learning via the ASL University (Lifeprint) curriculum in specific.
See:
facebook.com/groups/Lifeprint.ASLU/
Note: It is a private group (large -- over 10k members) but they accept most applicants who make the effort to answer a few questions during the application process.
Thank you very much, May Jehovah God bless you and your family.
At. 8:45 she asked her favorite kind of book to read...what is the sign that she responds with?
Kimberly,
Katelyn responded using a sign that can be interpreted as meaning "all, whole, entire, complete, holistic, entire," and similar concepts.

Thank you!! I was racking my brain trying to recall a sign that I had muscle memory of using!
Hi Dr. Bill! What are you signing in the story beginning at the 5:55 mark?
I'm sharing a time when I noticed a student doing a very stylized and depictive version of the sign for MILK. It turns out that the student grew up actually milking cows and was showing us the precise / exact movement that they used to squeeze milk from the teat.
The point here is that the sign for MILK is only a general depiction of the process of milking a cow -- not a specific or precise depiction.
28:56 Im confused at what this interation is. She fingerspells NAPA? No idea what Napa classes are. Am I missing something?
The Napa Valley area in California is world-renowned primarily for its wine industry. It is one of the premier wine-producing regions in the United States and is globally recognized for the high quality of its vineyards and wines. The area's rich agricultural heritage extends beyond grapes, making fresh, locally sourced produce readily available. Such being the case, cooking classes and wine classes are popular in that area. Or maybe she just wanted to take her general ed courses in a beautiful location.
@@sign-language ohhhh that explains why I saw WATER (or maybe wine?) and DRINK sign after! Im not from the U.S and google was no help lol. But I understand now, thank you🙏🏾❤️❤️
Hello again, Dr. Bill! At 17:22, regarding the question about whether we know the name of the teacher's spouse, what would be the appropriate way to sign in a gender-neutral context? Could we take the dominant hand from our cheek, for example, rather than from the forehead or chin?
Yes, exactly! The cheek area is the gender neutral location.
Another approach is to do the sign "marry / marriage" + "person" in the context of spouse. Along the lines of "THEIR MARRY-PERSON NAME WHAT?"
Another approach is to ditch the "spouse" sign altogether and use the sign "partner."
See: ua-cam.com/video/ei9kkjtIt6w/v-deo.html
Also, be advised that in advanced signing we often drop the second half of that sign (in other words we sometimes just sign ""share" -- in context and it is understood to mean partner). Some people sign "pair / couple" to refer to their partner:
ua-cam.com/video/Qbb_tyBM0lI/v-deo.html
It is an evolving area of language and an area that I'm keeping in mind for future revisions of the curriculum.
@@sign-language Thanks, Dr. Bill. You rock! :)
40:41 why do you make little circles when you're spelling US? Are you using quotes because US is such a common word?
The little circular movement helps distinguish the initials U.S. from the word "us."
Thanks
6:47 I'm still not getting this sentence structure. It seems redundant to say "where from, and "how get." Can you explain this to me?
By using two different question we allow for a wider range of answers.
Location (FROM-where?) and process (HOW GET?) are two different concepts.
That cleared it up, thanks.
At 8:27 when you sign "name something dog chase", would that be an eyebrows-down question? I can't tell if it would qualify as one or if it is more of a command. Thanks!
If you lower your eyebrows you turn the question into:
What is the name of something a dog chases.
If you raise the eyebrows your question comes across as more of:
Can you name something a dog chases?
If you use neutral eyebrows it is:
Name something that a dog chases. (A directive / command).
Dr. Bill, I'm Curious what was signed at 39:32 . You guys were talking about if you thought cows were a good pet
As to whether cows are good pets I told Katelyn, "It depends. Maybe. You can get on them and ride them. Other than that they just spend a lot of time chewing. They are good to eat!"
She replied (basically) "Um, uh uh, bad!"
When I asked her if she thought cows were good pets she replied, "Yes, I was in FFA." To which I explained to the class that FFA stood for Future Farmers of America.
I can't figure out what she is spelling here. 40:20
She's "attempting" to spell "US Magazine." At first she spelled magazine with an "x" as in "magaxine."
I am learning ASL on my own. I watch a lot of your videos but a bit confused to your sentence structure at times. I know its ASL but sometimes you sign reverse of what you write. Is it predicate and then noun?
Actually ASL has multiple sentence orders just as every other (human) language on the planet.
(Or at least I've yet to learn of any mono-syntactical human languages).
In ASL you can sign either:
YELLOW HOUSE
or
HOUSE, YELLOW
Anyone who tells you that ASL only follows one specific (exclusive) sign order -- doesn't know what they are talking about and is likely spouting what they learned from their ASL 1 teacher who didn't know what they were talking about either.
I've got a few links for your to check out if you would like to know more about the grammar of ASL:
www.lifeprint.com/asl101/topics/subject-verb-object-asl-sentence-structure.htm
www.lifeprint.com/asl101/pages-layout/grammar.htm
and, my favorite:
www.lifeprint.com/asl101/topics/store-i-go-the-myth.htm
Some of the links to videos on that last page (The Myth of "STORE I GO" -- have started breaking but at the time I wrote the article they worked and linked to the examples I described in the article and the points in the article are still valid.
what were you signing at around 14:00 minutes? You were talking about possessive signs. I was lost
At first I explained that the possessive his/her (belonging to a third person) sign is usually done off to a signers dominant side.
Then I pointed out that if I were referring to two different people other than "you" and "me" for example Bob over here on the right and John over there on the left then I could do the possessive palm sign toward whichever one I wanted to refer to. Then I mentioned that if Mary were in the scenario we could do the possessive palm to a third location to indicate that something belongs to Mary.
See: www.lifeprint.com/asl101/pages-layout/possession.htm
Also see: www.lifeprint.com/asl101/pages-signs/p/possession.htm
At 28:15, the motion in which you twisted your index finger on the side of your nose, what does that mean? 🤔
That's a basic sign for "boring" or "bored."
ua-cam.com/video/6_5BxE7yBEo/v-deo.html
What is the sign at 36:29-one handshape to cheek-after the question, "Do horses like to eat fish?" No, ______
That is a "casual" version of the sign for THINK. The formal version is on corner of the forehead. When done quickly and casually signs like THINK, KNOW, and/or FOR -- tend to be done lower (since it takes less effort).
very cool! I like ASL. I'm deaf. Pounds Brazil almost equals red (ASL), color (ASL), forget (ASL) and want (ASL) I don't know English, only Portuguese to translate English. 🥰
What is the sign when you put the sign "feel" on the face?
What is the time code (in format 0:00) and I'll take a look.
Hey Bill! What's the sign at 28:05? It's like happy but different.
and 38:15 right before you sign 'tired'
The sign that looks like a two-handed version of PLEASE is usually glossed as ENJOY and can mean things such as enjoyment, pleasure, appreciate (as to find pleasure in), entertainment, and similar concepts. Some people even use it to mean amusement as in an "amusement park."
I signed:
Today? You (did a lot of) running and you are tired?!?
Notes: The "NOW, current, contemporary" sign can be used to mean "today" in context.
@@sign-language Oh got it. Thank you!
38:13 what does the interlinked thumb and index finger mean? Please
That is one of the signs for "run."
@@sign-language Thank you!
@@sign-languagethank you! i was scrolling the comments looking for this one :P
If you ever can't figure out a sign in my videos -- consider applying to join the Lifeprint-ASLU Facebook group and asking your question there. See:
facebook.com/groups/Lifeprint.ASLU/
Sure, I try to answer questions in the comments but sometimes my other work and projects keep me pretty busy -- so it is nice to have a group that enjoys answering questions about signs.
What does she sign after the question here? 3:26
She signed a version of "all."
I'm in a asl class in Vermont, do you ever travel to other places to be a guest in asl classes?
From time to time I go do a workshop for some organization and get invited to visit nearby ASL classes. I recently returned from Singapore where I did a week-long curriculum development workshop. In-between training sessions I visited various local signing and/or Deaf gigs.
Bill Vicars would you ever be interested in coming to Vermont to visit my asl class?
April, I love visiting places and meeting people. I'm certainly open to going to Vermont. Of course travel costs money and spending time traveling takes time away from my existing work -- thus if folks want me to come visit I ask them to pay for my travel expenses and lost work time. It takes many hours to properly plan a trip, pack, find substitute instructors, prep a workshop, sit in airports, wait at car rental terminals, check into hotels, drive to new locations, find rooms that I haven't been to, do the gig, travel back home, unpack, and then catch up on all the emails that didn't stop coming while I was off doing a gig. One trip to do a half-a-day workshop wipes out well over 3 days or more of local productivity (in addition to the actual lost work time and/or paying a substitute instructor). So, yes I'm interested in going to Vermont but to change that interest into "commitment" would require an investment of $1,695.00.
Bill Vicars ok, awesome! I will talk to some people then get back to you!
Bill Vicars I talked to my teacher and he said that the signs are a little different because you're from the west coast. I wanted to surprise my teacher because we watch your videos in class. I'm sorry to bother you.
what is the sign you did at 25:49 ?
I did a "woah" type gesture with my left (flat) hand and then I did a "hold on" (as in hold that thought) with my right ("S") hand then I asked the person in the audience what was their question. Also mixed in there I did the "wait sign" (a one-handed quick version using my right hand and wiggling fingers).
If you look close during that interchange you'll see me also sign the "ask to me" sign:
ua-cam.com/video/vixdgY-lmCU/v-deo.html
Did Katelyn say she actually has a horse?
Tip: Include a time code (such as 0:00) of the time in the video to which you are referring (or maybe a second earlier). That way people can jump right to that spot and see what I'm signing and help you out.
It was at 19:46. As an aside, thank you for making these. Your videos are fun and make it easy to stay engaged and motivated to learn.
Good job on the time code. I took a look. At first she mentions having a horse. I did a little deeper and ask if it is hers or her parents. She responds "yes." So I clarify even more specifically "your parents?" -- to which she nods affirmatively.
So, she has a horse in the general sense that her family has a horse.
Why did you spell cat and cow at the same time?
I spelled "cat" and "cow" at the same time because...
I have multiple personalities.
;-)
Actually it is just a cute little practice activity to challenge the brain.
Some folks can do it.
Some can't.
Some can do it only after massive practice.
Bill Vicars hahaha 😆
I was wondering if it will be needed in future lessons. Like for example some signs might need both hands to sign different things at once? I’m not sure if that’s a thing
Oh hey, CAT / COW simultaneous fingerspelling is on the Final Exam for sure. Also, you have to pat your head and rub your belly simultaneously -- then switch.
(Heh, kidding).
Phoenixfeather, are you keeping up with your studies?
Google "Deaf events near me"
Bill Vicars ahh I’ve been slacking a little bit! Thank you for the reminder!! I’m going to get back on track with practicing 😊 I did go to a deaf coffee meetup recently actually! Everyone was so welcoming, kind, and patient with me ❤️
I´m from brazil
🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
When he ascend to name one thing that dogs chase I immediately thought of a cat
😄😄😄
Saw this today, It turns out some horses do eat fish, who knew? ua-cam.com/video/0K4KeExDfRo/v-deo.html
