We wanted to share some experiences we go through as a Deaf and Hearing couple during quarantine and some signs that is useful right now. We're glad to see so many people starting to take up learning sign language during this time, and we want to help! We're going to create as much sign language content for you all, and please stay home and be safe!

we love to see it: our favorite underrated couple
@kassidy Yesssss!!!
hey! So nice of you to say :D
YASSS I FOUND MYSELF BINGE WATCHING ALL OF THEIR VIDEOS😭💕💕💕
I found then from my searches for deaf youtubers, I'm happy I did
Any other good ones you suggest?
Ryan is such a character his sassiness gets me through the whole vlog lol
I sign ISOLATION for Quarantine also!! HAHA I’m so glad I’m not the only one...
Daniel Yong hahaha yes! 😆-E
I never signed in my life... I think I learned how to sign "Coronavirus", "need", "hospital" and "mask" today. I don't know for how long I will remember them but hopefully for a long long while.
i sign physical isolation
I remembered "isolation", "quarantine" and "food/eat" too today, yay
(I know I’m late) Just found out that it is the sign for quarantine in Dutch sign language!😄
My mom is deaf and doesn’t know sign language so she relies solely on lip reading which is obviously very difficult during this time. It’s cool to see another perspective from a deaf individual on how to navigate such limited interaction that they’re normally used to having in order to communicate.
Noah Grogg hey my mom is deaf to
Oh wow, yeah it's gotta be really rough if she wants to go out alone to the grocery store or maybe a restaurant.
Hey what a coincidence my mom does that too. But she learned how to speak English and Spanish. So she doesn’t have to rely on sign language to talk
I know ASL and am really good at reading lips and was able to have right sided cochlear implant surgery on September 6, 2019 and hoping soon to know about having left sided cochlear implant surgery.
Amy Westbeld how did the implant impact you initially? My mom has looked into it but she’s been deaf all her life so I think it’s quite daunting to think about how life changing that would be to her because she only knows how to function as a deaf woman.
I feel like Ryan was extra cute this episode, I don’t know why
In the early 1990s, when I was learning to interpret, I was taught that 2 “i”s together meant “talk to yourself.” It is funny to me that THAT particular sign helped make the sign for quarantine. 🤣 Thanks for the video!
I honestly don’t know why someone would dislike y’all if not on accident. 🤷🏼♂️ Love your videos!! You guys are really inspiring.
You do realize that there are trolls who go through hitting the dislike button without even watching the video. They somehow think they are hurting the channels, but in reality even the dislikes help the channel in the analytics because it is about interactions, not positive or negative.
Ryan's imitation of hearing people on that chair at 1:27 still gets me😂😂
I don’t know why I really love when you spell out words in sign. Its so fast it’s amazing to think that someone who understands ASL can “read” (is that the right term?) it so fast
Haha i always think the same i have just begun to identify the first letter when they’re already done spelling it’s amazing though
About the accessible news, here in the Netherlands they have an interpreter who's standing behind the prime minister during important speeches, which I think is really good, because not only can deaf people understand but also the interest in Dutch sign language has increased sooooo much! Like the registers for next year's signing classes have already doubled
That’s really cool! I was going to chime in and say that I’ve seen on TV that a major Texas city near me has been using interpreters for speeches too which is awesome. Watching someone interpret public announcements like that with all the legal vocab can be hard for me to understand haha but I like trying to watch.
Great to hear that people have become more interested!
Irmaaa!!
Here in the US the camera people aren't really Intune and often crop out the interpreter and only focus on the person speaking. It is awful, but I have seen it so many times.
Here in Australia, the news have the speaker on the center screen where gameplay would be for lets players here on yt and then the interpreter would be on their own screen in the corner. Nice clear view for anyone deaf!
Edited: I typed this before watching the video i didnt realise what its called until after. Picture-in-picture
We have interpreters in canada too!
Do you guys think its harder to avoid touching your face while out in public, like at the grocery store, since a lot of signs involve that?
i was wondering this too
Foxxa Chan Productions sometimes that could be hard if you are tapping your face fast it could move too fast and hit your face
I just sign lower on my body and try to not touch my face ☺️
i have a tic where I can't help but touch and rub my face alot so I just always carry hand sanitizer and sanitize everytime I touch something lol
Omg the cupcake convo was so cute 🥺😍❤️😩
“I’m on thin glass” lmao i haven’t heard this term since childhood and it’s spot on for the occasion! It’s an old phrase, made new, thanks Ryan! *Ryan catching that fly out of thin air? Did you play baseball? Great reflexes!* NO ROOM FOR RUDE in the store!* My question is: do you guys play board games? Or Card games? That would make for good film. #signduofanOUT
I never heard it before. I've always heard "I'm on thin ice".
Ryan used to play lacrosse
There’s a local organization in my community that makes special masks for current workers (doctors, supermarket employees, police officers) that are cloth everywhere and there’s a plastic piece where the mouth area of the mask is supposed to be (made of like face shield material) so that deaf and hard of hard of hearing people can still read lips in public spaces :)
Oh that’s really cool! Wow
I also realised while watching the news(press conference) that the picture-in-picture thing is better because when the interpreter was standing next to the speaker, the camera people would zoom out a lot or even show the audience when the speaker was talking. I'm not deaf but i would get angry because then someone out there isn't receiving all the information that i hear.
I guess also camera people could just improve their ways to be more accommodating 🦋
All the way from South Africa, love y'alls channel ❣
yea!!! In korea all news have picture in picture so I always am a little confused by why american news channels dont do that :((
4:08 is such a subtle comedic moment for me. Thank you both! I haven't laughed that hard in awhile. You both are so cute and naturally funny.
Mimimosa I laughed hard at that entire moment as well! Haha
Daniel Yong Also when Ryan asked her “you coronavirus?”, Ellen’s expression and the way she waved no was so funny 😂
When you don’t remember how to turn on closed captions:
;w;
3 dots in the top right corner of the video
@@kennedycoln1167 or hit C on the keyboard lol
If u cant do that you are to young for youtube
I love that here in Tupelo, Mississippi our mayor's office hired a sign interpreter. Most of the time he is there present at any of the important press conferences. If he's not there they do picture in picture. Some people have been mean about it making fun of how expressive he is and his clothing but many of us have tried to encourage him.
You guys are amazing. I was originally a Deaf Education Teacher. I then became a Doctor of Audiology and practiced for 10 years before I became a stay at home dad for a few years. I now teach Middle School Sign Language and before the Shelter in Place for Corona virus happened I showed my students your "Threw my Food away in the Drive Thru" video. My students were shocked that this kind of discrimination could happen in today's society. We had a long talk about that type of problem. During my online teaching I plan on showing this video so they can get first hand knowledge about y'alls experience during quarantine. Thank y'all...stay safe. :-)
I really love Sign Duo. They’re so REAL and through this channel I became more aware of the deaf community. I’m trying to learn ASL and when you guys post it’s one of the highlights of my day! Watching you guys from Tokyo!! 🥰
Thank you Maria ☺️
I’m hard of hearing and I am having a hell of a time communicating with people rn. Because of the masks and plexi glass It is so difficult to hear people that usually I just leave or buy something I wasn’t looking for because I can’t hear what the guy said. Another problem is people yelling across the street to me a greeting or neighbours trying to have a conversation and I am only catching small parts of the conversation. I can’t even imagine what it’s like for people who are deaf
Hey I'm in the same boat right now as a hard of hearing person and it's especially hard for me at work but my co workers are generally nice about it and will repeat for me or point to what they need or pull down their mask for a minute if they can but it has been a real struggle. Limiting.
Both my parents were Deaf and my boyfriend is extremely hard of hearing and refuses to get hearing aids. I find it to be ridiculous that he doesn't he can afford them however, just refuses. I don't get it I don't understand and it's causing problems in our relationship.
@@winros3042 It's a personal choice for every person. I would encourage you to talk it over with him and get him to explain his reasoning for it. It may be that he feels self-conscious or embarassed to wear them. (They do attract attention sometimes.) Just try to be there for him and be supportive.
@@Katelyn3666 I'm very supportive however, he's very eccentric and he always says I'm a bull in a China cabinet. He and I been together over 20 years. I'm taking him to a hearing doctor 3 * the second and third time they put hearing aids on him and we walked around I spoke in my regular voice he heard everything perfectly! By him not hearing he speaks so loud it's unbelievable and if I ask him to lower his voice, he gets insulted! And I am very supported I am a child of deaf adults I get it... there's a little bit more the story with all respect to him I cannot throw it out there if you understand. Thank you though for your advice I appreciate it✌🤟🏻
Katelyn3666 some of my coworkers have been ok they find it funny and pull pranks on me. But others are really rude. Rolling their eyes when I as them “sorry what?” Because I didn’t catch what they said. Even when I asked them to face me and speak louder they still don’t and somehow it’s my fault...
I could see how the mask thing is a bit difficult for deaf people right now, but there is this college student who has started to make see through masks for the deaf community! She’s doing a really great job of making sure everyone has accessibility through this time.
No one!
Me when I see the puppy in the intro: PUPPY
When Ryan took the piece of cupcake despite not really liking it and ate it...🥺🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I don’t know where u guys live but in Ontario Canada every briefing on the news by any officials has an interpreter in the corner of the screen live.
Grace Hero that is the reason I found this channel! The Interpreters on the briefings!
They live in California
Neno Laura I’ve seen that on every broadcast newsom does here in CA.
yes they have one bottom left hand corner.
Although they only put it up for the Prime Minister Speech.
ua-cam.com/video/OMw4R2723cM/v-deo.html
I’m in California. The gov, and the mayor of Los Angeles have interpreters as well as the health dept. they are in Orange County, not sure on their mayor.
Sign Duo: *Sign Coronovirus*
Australians: THAT'S THE SIGN FOR ECHIDNA!!!!
Echidnas are cute, why you do them like that! D:
Annika W in Melbourne Vic we are taught this sign as Covid !
Jordan John I think they have forgotten the sign for echidna 😭
@@annikaw3506 mfw there's a sign for echina...
I saw on the news that some nurses at a hospital somewhere were customizing their mask by cutting big wholes in them and putting the clear plastic shielding there so people who are deaf or hard of hearing could understand them and read there lips if they have too. I taught that was a great idea they had came up with to solve that problem and make it easier for everyone to understand each other and still being safe.
When our governor makes an announcement on TV, there is always an ASL interpreter next to him signing everything. I really like it. I live in Arkansas. The interpreter wears a face shield so he is protected, but can still show facial expressions.
I love how so many people are learning ASL during this time, including myself, still trying to get better at fingerspelling tho:)
Ryan trying to catch that bug was hilarious. Deaf people have really sharp eyes. Meanwhile Ellen's just like...
Love you guys!
I'm dying over the ninja fly grab over here, lmao
About TV: in Italy every communication given by the government has a LIS (Italian Sing Language) interpreter and 3 times a day the news also have an interpreter on the three channels of public TV
I’m almost done with that ASL beginner course on Skillshare thanks you you both!! I signed up last time and I’ve been loving it..thank you both for inspiring me every day to learn and love that you guys are still uploading during this crazy time..stay safe 🤟🏼
Glad to see that you like it! Thank you Elizabeth ❤️☺️
nobody:
me: watching without subtitles
One thing I’ve noticed is you have to be a good speller in order to sign certain things (because you literally have to spell out words lol). Ryan, I’m so sorry you had that encounter at the grocery store. Also, I admire how sweet you two seem to each other ❤️
We have some interesting things happening as a deaf/hearing couple who are both working office jobs from home. I often have to help him call into meetings as they use a phone, he can't tell when the door is closed if I'm busy or not and sometimes interrupts by accident. Lots of new things to navigate!
I loved this video so much because both Ryan and Ellen seemed more relaxed and happy!!! I love them so much and this is by far my favorite video, I loved it, especially when Ryan was laughing at Ellen’s sign😂😂
I wish more creators did closed captions. You guys are great!
tv (telecommunications) is also covered under the ADA (title 4) and is required to be accessible to the hearing impaired.
15:00 this is a bit issue with the visually impaired community too. I get ppl waiving at me and I can’t see them or people with king I’m rolling my eyes at them even tho I didn’t even see them. People need to just be more understanding and accept that you can’t always be seen and heard.
I really liked that you taught us some new signs that are useful during this time! I'd love to see more of that in future videos - like when you go somewhere and get treats, could you teach us some signs that relate to where you are? I really like learning from you guys - Ryan especially makes it so easy to learn how the signs should look (from different angles and things). I really appreciate that!
I love you guys
In Finland when the government makes their announcements (which atleast at first was everyday) about new restrictions or news they always have a sign language interpreter on the screen as well.
I saw Signed with heart signed "quarantine" in her "week 14" video like the number two on both hands, left hand held horizontally, and the right hand hits it so that the fingers cross like a hashtag.
Ps THANKS SOooo MUCH for the 2 months free!! B/c of your guys generalities, I can learn sign the right way, and learn its history. So much love to you both, and the pup! 🥰❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏😁
I love their relationship and how sweet they are to each other!
Hey, I can imagine, how the mask make it so much harder for you guys. In the news I saw, that a woman in the US, I think it was in NY, make masks with a transparent 'window'. That's a pretty good idea!
Greetings from Berlin, Germany and stay healthy 😷
By deaf brother moved out last year and I saw myself forgetting sign but watching your videos help so much!
Who else loves there intro 💕
Omg I love y’all. I took an ASL class a couple semesters ago & ever since I’ve been so fascinated. Stumbled across y’alls channel! God bless :)
Her face and voice, you don't want my cupcake 😂😂😂 I love you guys
To get lighter/fluffier cupcakes, beat your eggs separately until frothy /bubblely.
Hey! You both are so inspiring and have inspired me and probably many others to learn sign language. I wish they taught us in school... keep inspiring and stay safe 💖
Audrey Jette
I know right, I am trying to convince one of the staff at my school to have an asl class
One of the kids in my kindergarten class has Cp so we all learned asl until grade 2. I wish it continued! Even at my uni I wanted to learn asl but they didn’t offer it!
When you tell people that he’s deaf do they always believe you( #huge fan ❤️❤️)
Brooklynn Thomas one of their last videos show them going to a fast food restaurant and them refusing to take his order or serve him because they think he is faking it.
Ramsey Fitzsimmons thank u I’m knew to there Channel so I didn’t get to it
I know I’m a year late, but it seems like everyone was( and still is) just so stressed that it made social interactions even between hearing people more tense and more rude. I’ve always had problems with my hearing but I was doing pretty good managing it with lip reading, and other stuff but now that’s been thrown out the window and with everyone being so upset it makes so completely hearing people snap at me more and faster, if I’m loud I get yelled at more, if I have trouble making out the words I get asked if I was paying attention or am stupid. I try to not get these things get to me, but it’s hard. I’m exhausted every time I have to verbally communicate with people outside my home or on the phone, and I’ve noticed between my speech and my hearing it’s gotten downhill.
In Germany every official news about the current situation (governmental) have an interpreter.
There is also one channel that always has an interpreter for their news. I remember seeing it as kid and thinking it was really cool that they had this kind of Accessibility
Just signed up with skill shared to learn Sign !! I’m soo very excited as this will become soo useful for me, and others on the receiving end who are deaf/hearing impaired to be able to communicate. I myself can only hear good out of one ear not able to afford a hearing aide, so I feel I can benifit from this greatly, and can get my partner onboard as well. This is also another service I can offer as a Nail Technician. Do you know how many deaf/hearing impaired are discouraged to get their nails done/need nail maintenance service in fear of the communication barrier?
There’s just some things people don’t understand about deaf people. I have a deaf sister and it took me a while to learn sign language because she can’t hear me. And just like Ryan, she chooses not to talk. And it’s not just like your simple ABC’s, because it takes way more letters and sounds.
I loved the beginning mostly his silly impersonation of hearing people. What a lovely couple! ❤️
ugh, java is so cute, so gentle when she took the cupcake from ellen ♥
I love how you added Java to the intro!
Can you do a video on who knows me best between your best friend and Ryan, btw I LOVE YOUR VIDEOSSS❤️🥰🥳😇
When Java was carried out of frame. 🤣
Also (5:40), apparently that's the sign for 'food'. My mom does it sometimes when she asks if the person she's talking to has eaten yet, though we're a hearing family. I don't know if she knows it's an actual sign. 😅
I have learned for signing for Quarantine . “Stay home” hand with a “Y” under your hand for stay similar to isolated sign but just with a “Y” and then sign language home. Two sign for quarantine . I just saw this on UA-cam . I can’t find in you tube that have a good Point of view in sign language for quarantine. If I find it I will update this.
NZ live news always has a person who signs. Sign language is our national language as well as Te reo.
you all mentined how having to wear masks is really hard for D/deaf people and how they communicate with other D/deaf people as well as with hearing people. check out this story! Ashley Lawrence, Deaf Education major at Eastern Kentucky University designed a deaf-friendly mask! here is the link:
www.accessandmobilityprofessional.com/student-creates-face-masks-for-hearing-impaired-and-shares-design-online/
Yep, another product made by the hearing. They have been making masks with a clear spot for years, the proper ones that can be worn in surgery, by a deaf company.
That's the right sign for "qurantine" and when Ellen signed "isolation" I kept thinking "nooo" 😆
I love this channel!
My goal is to not turn on closed captions 👍🏼
“I hope this doesn’t last very long” Me in July: 🧿👄🧿
Me in October: 🎃👄🎃
Me in November: 🦃 👄 🦃
Me in January: ⛄️👄⛄️
Me in February ❤️👄❤️
Me in March: 🌘👄🌒
I love you guys! Thank you for posting this. ❤️
Love to see you guys again!
Can we get more Java content please? Dogs are a great mood booster :P
Have either of you heard of the masks made out of clear plastic? I've never seen one in real life I just think it would be so awesome if they were real ans available for anyone to buy. They'd be so helpful! ❤️
Unfortunately a lot of them fog up
I absolutely love this channel
I'm partially deaf and I'm slowly learning sign language. People think I'm ignoring them all the time! Someone will yell at me before I notice them sometimes :/ Thank you guys for your videos, they're beautiful, thoughtful, and helpful. I'm looking forward to seeing your polls on UA-cam and Instagram. Stay safe!
I have a question. I am left handed. I have a tendency to try signs with my left hand since it is dominant-does it matter which hand you use to sign?
Ramsey Fitzsimmons you would use your dominant hand!
It doesn't matter which hand you are using. Some deafies are left handed too. If you are learning some signs from the right handed person, you can do the opposite since your left hand is dominant. It's not that hard. 😀
It doesn't matter what hand you use!
I can write more with my right hand, but I sign left, because I have an injury in my right hand.
My closed captions are not working, my sign skills are being put to the test. Did not understand what happened. But still watched it all. Oh well!
Hey Aubrey, that's because this video isn't public yet. How did you get the link to this video?
@@SignDuoChannel my bday is April 9th
@@SignDuoChannel I don't know either
@@SignDuoChannel and I wonder how they did too
Sign Duo oh maybe that is why? I just saw it on your page 😅
OMG Ryan's face when you offered him the cupcake 🤣🤣. Priceless. Guys I want to say that I enjoy your videos so much and thank you for giving out the 2 free months with Skill Share. I already started it few days ago and it's helping me at lot to learn ASL. God bless you and the people form Skill Share.
I learn so much from you guys, thank you!
Haha. I was showing my parnter the quarentine vs isolation sign and i like isolation, quarentine is hard. Haha
Thank you both for another good video to watch during this tough time. Hope you are staying healthy.
Question! When Ryan does the hand signs, he usually mouthed? the word he's signing, right? (Or at least it seems like it...) was this done out of habit or is it a way for you to keep on remembering what sign is for what word? Or is it for the lips reading people?
Thanks a bunch. Hope the questions makes sense♡
Sometime one sign has few meanings. To avoid misunderstanding it's better to mouth those words. It's helpful not only for hearing people but also deaf people to understand each other.
@@01Natalcia01 Yup or subtle differences between signs (like wish, hungry, and horny - same hand shape on the same area of the body, but the frequency or emphasis of the motion are different)
I love the way u edit ur vids! So funny!😂
aww you two made my day, sending love hope you all stay safe
ironic that a lot of signs related to COVID involve your hands touching/being close to your face when that’s one of the most important things not to do lol
Eh, a lot of signs involve touching the face. All these signs existed before COVID except for COVID (obvs) and quarantine. It's obviously not a big deal when you're at home in isolation, only an issue when you go outside.
only auto generated CCs are working 😔
HI Marina, we haven't published this video, because Ryan and I were working on the closed captions. How did you get the link to this video?
How did you do this 3 hours ago? It was posted 3 minutes ago!
@@SignDuoChannel it was up on your UA-cam page
@@mjcoteco7781 weird..
I'm do confused how did you get here 2 hours ago
Thank you so much for showing some signs💝
What an awesome channel, I can't wait to see more content from you guys!
Missed you guys!!!! Super excited for you to post more
I love watching your videos! I'm still learning signing, and im not that good at it, but these inspire me to learn more.
Yaaay!! Very excited to watch a new video!! Love you guys xx
I can't explain what the NSL sign for quarantine looks like. it's too hard 😂 your sign for hospital is our sign for nurse ☺️ we have interpreters on the daily broadcasts with information about the virus. I'm glad we have that.
Great video!
Online I have seen some masks constructed with a clear partition over the lips so as to allow lipreading. Also there are clear face shields that cover the eyes and mouth. That can allow lipreading as well. In signed English, you could use a Q substituted for the I and sign "isolation" that way...a possibility.(Sign "isolation" with a Q.) [ In 1974 and '75 I was trained as an interpreter-tutor to help the integration of the deaf into the hearing environment at a community college. This was an experimental program in 3 cities only...Charlotte, NC, Philadelphia, PA, and Richmond, VA. We were the forerunners of the deaf being mainstreamed into schools.]
Thank you for teaching signs♡
Yay for skill share!!! Also I love how welcoming Ryan is to people learning sign language. When I had my son back in 2012, I taught him tons of baby signs. I remember dirty looks because my son would sign food and then say something like “snack” I would reply with the sign OK or say okay. People were not nice about it. Times have changed. My son and I still use sign language back and fourth. I think it’s an amazing thing to be able to maybe see someone trying to talk to someone who is deaf and running up and be able to be that Interpreter when they need it. Even just know the abcs can get you far. Thank you guys!!!
I love your vids! You are both so inspirational and always make my day!♥️
I missed you guys! Love you and be safe ♡
thanks for teaching us those important signs!
Nice to see that you guys made another video
