You know how foreign language books give you key phrases to use in other countries. Well, often they are phrases that automatically make you look like a foreigner. For example, my friend from Europe was taught that when you meet an English speaker you say "How do you do?" Most people say How are you - or in Boston where I'm from it's pronounced how ah ya?
If I look in an ASL book am I going to encounter signed phrases like that- useful, but not the normal way of saying something?
Just curious.
