And as she talks about the interpreter being cut out they literally cut out the interpreter… meta
As a former Interpreter for the Deaf, I am ecstatically pleased about your Interpreters and their process! 🤟🥰
ALS? 😂 we aren’t doing the ice bucket challenge.
Omg he kept calling it ALS.... sir it's ASL maybe it's the novice interpreter in me....
I did hear it. Drove me insane
That is very unfortunate. I didn't catch it because I am Deaf. I think one of the hearing interpreters should've mentioned it, because it's a VERY common mistake.
ALS must be a new sign language, huh? It’s ASL (American Sign Language) and not ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis).
I agree 💯% so true I learned basic ASL it is very important
I love everything about this. Maybe peope will now understand how important accessibility is, instead of mocking interpreters. American Sign Language is all about accessiblity
It's still not clear the difference between the 2 interpreters. It seems that the sign the same.
I'm a Deaf person. In my opinion, a Deaf interpreter is most effective when the speaker is not talking too fast, to give the Deaf interpreter time to think about how to improve on the ASL of the hearing interpreter. But sometimes a hearing interpreter interprets something too literally or not visually enough. It's very hard to do a great job on the fly because in ASL, there are many possible ways to interpret the same sentence.
Just a small example. If a hearing interpreter signs the following sentence too literally, it does not make sense.
Speaker: I would like to go to the ice cream shop.
Hearing interpreter: I WILL LIKE GO ICE CREAM STORE.
A Deaf person might think, "Huh? This person will love going to the ice cream shop in the future? They don't already love doing that now?"
This original interpretation is not actually right.
DEAF interpreter: I WANT GO ICE CREAM STORE.
THAT interpretation makes actual sense.
ssshhh!
Such a wonderful message I don't think they'll lose their job to AI God bless us all in Jesus name thank God Amen John 3:16
