I am currently planning our 5th annual Deaf Awareness Day at my university (UCONN/University of CT). We are having comedian Peter Cook come and my ASL 4 class is putting on a small play. Last year we had over 300 Deaf and hearing individuals attend from around the tri-state area. if you are...

hi all, I am the "leader" of planning Deaf Awareness Day (an event that the ASL 3 class at my university plans every year). Normally we have a Deaf guest speaker or comedian come. We have had Joan Hanna (I think she teaches at ASD..she's a friend of my professor) and Keith Wann a number of...

hi...I am an ASL 3 (hearing) student always looking for people to sign with :) You can add me on skype if you'd like to talk.... my name on that is: crashfirephoenix

In my opinion (someone else can correct me if I'm wrong), it's just another way of saying it. Even in English, you can interchange the sentence "That's the way I like it" for "That's how I like it"

Hi everyone, I'm just wondering, would the sign "way" ... as in "That's the way (road) to the church" ... be signed the same if you wanted to say (to quote a song lol) "that's the way I like it" or would "way" never really be used in the 2nd context, and be exchanged for another word --...

I was taught that you do it like this: Sign year. When your dominant fist hits the top of your nondominant fist (after doing the sign), point back behind your shoulder with your index finger. hope that makes sense. as a side note, "next year" is done the same way except you point forward...

Yes, PSE generally uses ASL signs and English grammar

My ASL teacher (who is Deaf) signs it like on aslpro.com just throwing in my 2 cents as well :)

I have a question about the use of the word "how" mid-sentence. If I wanted to say: He is changing how the business works. would I sign it like.. "he change how business work" ... "he change business work" ...or is there a better way? thanks :) :ty::ty::ty::ty:
