#LearnHowToSign #LearnASL # ASL
I literally woke up this morning at 4 am. Decided to learn asl for no real reason. I haven’t even met a deaf person that I know. But I’ve been doing it 2 hours now and apparently I’m hooked
Haha I’m watching this late at night too just for fun 😂
Same!!!!
Hows it going
Same
It’d be so cool to know that 10 months later you are a major ASL master or something😁
Two of my students (one hard-of-hearing student and a deaf student) have inspired me to learn ASL. As a result, I've been watching a couple of your videos. They are really helpful. Thank you so much for this!
You are a rockstar teacher. Your students are lucky to have you.
In my kindergarten class we used the asl sign for bsthroom since we had someone who didnt speak english in our class. It also helps to tell weather someone has a question or is asking to go to the bathroom.
I’m in a partners art class with a classmate that is either deaf or hard of hearing. I’m not 100% sure. He has an interpreter so I try to sign since he can’t read my lips
@@icyiyes4846 omg same
@@kaylapng9340 cool
The only thing that I disagree about this whole thing is the eyebrows down and the eyebrows up thing. A lot of my friends also, including myself don't do that. At least I don't think we do. Of course sometimes we do but it's just based on emotions and not specific words or sentences or questions. Other than that you are doing a fantastic job. Thank you for teaching others
Thank you and thanks for sharing.
I was wondering what happens if the person has botox and cant do this part lol
@@kristinec212 Hahaha I was thinking the same thing.
I feel like that would maybe be the equivalent of having a formal conversation with your elder or someone you just met vs your close/immediate family and friends having a more relaxed conversation. I’ve learned that other languages also have certain etiquette depending on the person your speaking to.
I have slightly blurry eyesight and my eyebrows are almost non existing so when I was practicing this video, I had to put eyebrow makeup on. Cuz I cant understand when Im watching myself. And I actually prefer asking questions with eyebrows doing opposite direction.
I have trouble communicating and have social anxiety that makes me mute most times and I find it easier to do ASL than it is to force myself to speak. I subconsiously learned to use body language to communicate because Im mute most of the time so this comes easy! And I love teaching my friends! Thank you for making these videos!
omg saaaame yeah I'm excited to get better at ASL
I've been rewatching this video lately so I can communicate with my nonverbal coworker and something clicked today!
It’s always exciting when lessons finally click.
What a quality! It's about everything: the teacher, the content, the video itself, the scenario, the edition. Every little thing in tihis video are high quality. Excelent work, I really apreciate that.
I have been wanting to learn American Sign Language for a while now and your videos help so much! Thank you!!😄
I've learned this before from working with a deaf patient but I needed a refresher. Great content! Thank you 😊
Thank you so much for doing what you are doing! You are a blessing!
Thank you Meredith.
I live in indonesia, so i can't really use this. But this is very usefull ♥
Welcome to our channel. I just looked up some Indonesian Sign Language. Very fun to compare to ASL.
My gf was born deaf and I have to admit not one of her conversations ever go like that 🤔 when she signs with me or anyone else she always does it in the same order that people speak in
Sign language comes in the form of a continuum. The ranges from ASL to SEE (Signing Exact English) to Oralism. Some deaf use ASL sign but in English word order. It all depends on their educational background and family.
Me and my 1 year old enjoy sign language. Thank you for teaching 🥰
Great show, thank you!
Am watching you're video am learning alot thank you so much
This will be my course. I am watching all your videos.
Yay!!!! Keep on coming back. We are making tons more.
You rock, Meredith.
Great content
thank you too much for these videos before i found your channel i didn't no ant ASL
Ant ASL is not much different than normal ASL, but you need a really good microscope to see what the ants are signing back
Glad these videos are teaching you something new.
Sooo helpful!
Great video! Very informative
Glad it was helpful!
definitely
This actually helped me thank you
You are welcome.
😊😊😊😨😨
Thank you
You're welcome
I love you work
Thank you! We love doing it.
Have you thought about doing ASL for SCUBA divers? There are some videos of deaf divers but no videos actually showing the most important/useful ASL signs for divers. Your videos are great!
I have a kid in my class and his hearing aids broke but I can still talk to him
Thanks
Right on
yeah cool thanks
YES!
Im malaysian, i like asl but i dont think people here will use it very much. But...that doesnt stop me.
Well I need a lot of help with grammar structure this helped a lot though I don’t know how to put it in order easily.
I love your videos. The explanations are wonderful. I do have a question though. When you are trying to say...My sister Kelly, Which comes first, sister or Kelly? Thanks
Learning questions so I can know what people are asking me :)
Hello, I'm new subscriber and I saw many of yours videos, and i have doubt cual is the different between LIVE and WHICH
I have a question! Why do you sign “you” twice sometimes? And how do I know when to?
she has videos on that! I can't remember exactly which one(s) but you can try looking
In her other videos that she talks about this it’s called a closing statement. I think it’s because sometimes if you don’t close the statement it can seem unfinished. For example if you sign “I need help” without the closing “l” at the end you could in theory be saying more… like “I need help lifting this couch” (bad example, I know). It just lets the person your taking to know you are done talking. At least that’s how I understand it… lol 😂
Madam . your sign style is very beautiful .I see u from Pakistan.
✔️✔️✔️
How would I say, "Am I__"? As in the song, "Am I more than just the sum of every high and every low?"
For me, there is no reason, i just love sign language that's why im here
why do you rotate "ASL" fingerspelling in the last example? Does that mean something?
I love you
Hello, what is the sign for dialysis?
How do you say adorable or cute
when should we use I or you in the beginning and end?
This is only in phrases when you are talking about yourself.
@@LearnHowtoSign then why did you use 'you' at the end of what is your name?
Also, shouldn't it be 'your' with the palm faced front instead of 'you' when asking what is your name??
I have question.
It's mabe dump but I don't understeand: why do we need questin mark when we don't use it in the senteces. Btw your videos are amazing!
I think she was giving brief vocabulary words at the beginning, relating to questions. I think you would use that sign when you mean to say the words "question mark", but I just started so I'm not completely sure.
I have a question ?
When you sign question, or Need ,, they look the same , can you clarify for me please , I’m just now learning ASL 🤟 we love your videos 🤟 thx 😊
For need make an alphabet x with your hand and use it almost like a claw and kind of bounce it up and down. For question, make the same letter x but then don’t move your hand at all, all you will move is your index finger and you will bend and then unbend it. Sorry it’s hard to explain without a visual aid but I hope this helped
Hi ❤
I'm filipino but I like australia sign
Never looked in Australian Sign Language. Would be fun to look up.
Wish there was a simple
Wish there was just a simple sight for ?? Like " do you want water?" And there is a sign at the end to indicate it was a question
In casual conversation you would just look at the person you are talking to and sign WATER? with your eyebrows up since it is a yes or no question
@@hapygcium6837 as i am from the future now haha i have learned the great importance of body language! Thankyou tho !
I’m also using an app called Sign School and going through the lessons they offer. They don’t put Wh words at the end. For example I just completed a lesson that had the sentence “what do you mean” they signed it “what you mean?” instead of what I assume would be “you mean what?” There was another time too that they didn’t put the Wh word at the end. Just curious - Is this a dialect thing or preference thing?
Sign School is put together by Culturally Deaf people. This video is made by a hearing person. You should follow Sign School over videos like this because it gives a better picture of the variation in what and how actual Deaf people who use ASL naturally communicate in their language. Bill Vicars on Lifeprint gives a really good explanation regarding WH questions. Basically when a question word is signed it starts the WH face. If you have a long or complicated question the WH word goes at the end of the sentence because it would be strange an unnatural to perpetually furrow your eyebrows for that long. For some shorter WH questions it is not unnatural to furrow the eyebrows throughout and therefore the question word can go at the beginning. Examples would be What your name? Who you? What time? What you mean etc. If you were asking, "What did you get Jimmy for his 5th birthday?", the question word would go at the end. It is never wrong to put the question at the end but there are times it is fine to put it at the beginning. Real Deaf people don't sign like robots. PS Sign School is great. One of my good friend, who is Deaf, was one of the people who put it together. Much more reflective of reality.

Just askin, how do you recite poems in sign language? Is it possible? Do you do it just as they are word by word? Or do you try more expressive gesture to convey poetic means?
It depends what the point is. If you are teaching English poetic devices to Deaf children you sign the English and explain to Deaf children the repetition, rhyme, etc. Then mimic the poem in a visual way that is more enjoyable for the child to watch and helps them to make connection between the function of devices in English and ASL poetry. Lots of factors
I have a big problem with the signs! I have been learning ASL for awhile. I am not really good at it but as I am watching to help me further I see people use different signs. I looked up Washing Machine and I see 4 different signs. I often see different signs for one thing. What is right? I am probably the only person at work to help with ASL and I really want to help when I am needed.
It's like with English: there are different dialects so the same exists within ASL. Depending where you are from you may use a different sign for a specific word, such as the "How"
Amazing video, please make it slow. I can’t catch up.
Im sorry for the odd comment, but I can’t stop thinking of Donald Trump whenever she does the “you” sign. 😂
Because why you can leave with ASL is because you can tell your parents and Silver Eagle parents are the same language that you learn
how do you ask yes/no questions when you're angry? >:( :D
You go a little fast when you start doing the complete sentences
Thanks for sharing ways for us to improve.
Why do you not sign "you" again at the end of the "you like him?" example? The example right before is "You like ice cream you?" and then the very next example doesn't have the "you" at the end. They're both yes/no questions...
In yes and no questions. Why do some questions end with you but some don't??
Just emphasis but it doesn't matter either way. Both are correct
I appreciate these videos, but this one is really confusing me. Sometimes you use the closing "you" or "me" but sometimes you don't.. How do we know when to use the closing word? Also, why do we need to know "question mark" if we don't end a question sentence with it? And why do you use "you" (pointing) instead of "your" (flat hand) when asking, "What's your name?"
You could say. I SIGN. I SIGN I. SIGN I. All are correct. It doesn't really matter which you do. Sometimes you may repeat the pronoun to reemphasize who is being discussed but it isn't wrong if you don't.
Question mark "?" also is a personal preference. It isn't wrong to include it or exclude it. It may be signed to emphasize again that a question is being asked and has ended. Sometimes it feels more natural than other times. You just get a feeling for it. Sometimes like in an interview or series of questions it may emphasize that a question has ended and now a response is expected.
:) ;)
ya
hi will that girl asl one see good ...
MMHM
You signed the last one a bit too fast😢
Just saying some people like Asian people have less expressive faces and aren’t able to move their eyebrows up or down like others can. So doing this may be harder with the facial expressions
