Have you considered taking ASL classes? It could be an interesting experience for you and you can to enjoy all sort of ASL-related vlogs and videos that are out there on the internet.

I know in college I will be taking Sign Language I and II for mini classes for my Social Work degree...

I would love to go become a CDI... just right now I can only focus on one thing at a time ya know...

Silentwolfdog · 01-17-2008, 05:48 PM

I would like to take one too. But not everyone have time or money to do so.

They don't have ASL classes at my level too. There used to be some but ASL is not popular at my college so they got rid of some ASL courses. It went from ASL I-IV to ASL I and II.

Not everyone is lucky.

My social work degree never asked for foreign language and also ASL is not counted as foreign language.

I sort of wish that they did because I would love to learn new foreign language or ASL.

I don't know if Master of Social Work will requires me to take some foreign language classes.

His son was a lousy player and dad went to tell his son that he's very disappointed with him and as the result, the father broke his own jaw. This is because of the sign "disappoint" is designed to go to person's jaw and generally hearing people are fragile (Roger said that, not me), unlike deaf people, so as the result he broke his jaw. Then Roger went on to tell stories of other people who made attempts to sue ASL because of injuries involved with certain signs. Deaf lawyer came to defend the case by bring up "HASL" which is for hearing people where they can cover certain parts of their face with other hand so that they won't get hurt by ASL.

That's basically the main point of what he said.

Hopefully I am right? Anyone want to correct those?

If no one has brought up a transcript for you in a couple of days, I will be happy to try make one for you. Hopefully someone will because their English might be better than mine.

I believe in equal access so.

** Wave Hands up in the Air ** Marvelous job !!

HASL Hearing America Sign Language uses other hand to protection from your finger point on chin. It looks like that wear a baseball glove.

I love the part long fingernail interpreter lady high class snob up point the nails into the eyes. "Look" I was laughing so hard. I can't image sign with long fingernails. Ooochhh...

Oh yeah and...hahahah.. now I get it! (see me slapping my leg repeatedly and laughing)

Thank you! I needed this explanation. I pick up new signs best by watching
first, reading a transcript and watching again to look for individual signs. (I know we are NOT supposed to do it that way but thats how I learn) You
won't believe how many times I watched Deaf Ninja and each time I become
aware of a new sign. Sigh, sometimes my brain feels as if IT is in slow motion.
I would like a transcript too.

I like to have a transcript for non-ASL users even never seen before on new signs, but, I understand most ASL,
but he may be individual signs or someone taught this sign for him.

I will show what he is said on 0:42. I never saw this sign before.

Lol- nice ending!

Kaboom/smoke from the lighting from God that zapped him for lying(if he lied)

Good joke video, HASL could be very benefical to ASL newbies.
