Thanks, everyone! That helps me figure out who I am going to model myself after. ~ Audrey Arndt, hearing, ITP student

Hi, everyone! I have a question relating to an interpreter's habits. Does it bother you when an interpreter is signing ASL, but mouthing the English word equivalents at the same time? Example: (signing) STORE ME GO-TO (mouthing) store me go-to. They may be accurately portraying the message and...

Hi, Olu! Thanks! And definitely! ~ Audrey Arndt, hearing, ITP student

I've had it explained as a bad "all-of-a-sudden" when you do it with a twist. To my knowledge, it's used as a transition marker signifying an unfortunate turn of events in the story. Thus, metalangel's example is right. "I was working in a restaurant and carrying a pitcher of water when WRONG...

Hi, Alyssa! Welcome!

Becki, I'll be at Deaf Night Out on Friday at JB's Pour House. We can talk then, if you like.

Thanks, Bebonang and Reba! ~ Audrey Arndt, hearing, ITP student

Thank you! I've enjoyed exploding AD a lot already. ~ Audrey Arndt, hearing, ITP student

Fair enough, Anji. It's all about the interpretation and interpretation is going to differ as much in English-ASL as it does in Biblical theology (I noticed your profile said that you're in seminary school). How I read it is this: A man is so distraught and frustrated that his love is...

"I'd go through all this pain" She's trying to turn poetry in English into poetry into ASL, so it's not a direct word to sign correlation, but rather the meaning of the phrase. ASHAMED fits in the sense that he's ashamed to admit that he would commit these acts for the love of this woman even...

Strange. I just looked at the Facebook group board and at least two interpreters were there, and there's usually a contingent of older Deaf who show up. I'll try to be there at the end of February. Also, if you're interested, Deaf Night Out is this Friday at JB's Pour House in Hermitage from...

Actually, ASL was born from a mixture of Old French Sign Language, Martha's Vineyard Sign Language, and home sign. This language mixture is commonly pointed out when reading anything about the history of ASL. Since then, the language has evolved to become its own unique language so that if you...

Another way to approach sentence structure is setting up the biggest thing first and working your way to the smallest. English: The towels are on the shelf in the closet in the upstairs bathroom. ASL: ___________________________________t UPSTAIRS BATHROOM CLOSET SHELF TOWEL THERE.A very...

Just watched it. I think she's signing HUMILIATION. Basically, "I go through all this humiliation for you". I believe her roommate in college was Deaf (when Greer made all these videos), so her videos tend to be stronger ASL than the average ITP student. ~ Audrey Arndt, hearing, ITP student

Really sorry to hear that, hon. Trans life is tough. What about hostels in the area? There's also a couple of couch surfing websites out there you can Google. If the issue is money, Craigslist also has a section called "gigs" that has people post all sorts of short tasks you can do. For example...
