Hello everybody!
I am a student of American Sign Language. So far I have quite enjoyed learning ASL. It's such an interesting language/culture. I hope to one day become quite good at it.
I was wondering if some people wouldn't mind answering a few questions for me for a class assignment? I need to get as many people to answer as I can. I would really appreciate the help! Please answer any or all.
1.) Are you deaf or hard of hearing?
2.) Were you born deaf or did you become deaf?
3.) (If applicable) What was it like growing up deaf?
4.) Are the majority of your friends hearing or deaf?
5.) Do you find it hard to communicate with people on a daily basis, like in a grocery store for example?
6.) Do people treat you differently or make you feel different because you are deaf? How so? Do you have any examples?
7.) If there was a "cure" for deafness would you use it or stay deaf?
8.) Are there any personal experiences, stories, or anything at all that you would like to share?
Thank you so much for all your time and effort. I am very interesting in reading your answers.
