Last time I mentioned my English to ASL translator I only had a few signs. Now I have 3025. I made a few changes and it works much better . If you want to see the ASL output for "Wow! This wonderful, me happy!" visit the page...

Hi all, I'd appreciate a review of my site:www.pudl.info. I've just reorganized the layout. I've also added my first online card game: Black Jack Run www.pudl.info/games/bjr My database of SignWriting is really small and limited, so don't expect much from the English to ASL...

deafdyke, you can hope that improvements in hearing replacement stop. And you can hope that the hearing population becomes enlightened. I just don't see it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- National Campaign for Hearing Health...

Imagine in the future, a parent is told that their new baby is deaf. The parent is given 2 options. First, the parents can learn a second language, send the child to a special school, join a new culture, and possibly provide special training to the child so the child can speak and lip read...

I hope you are right deafdyke, but I've just read too much science fiction. Technology will improve. The success rate will improve. Because, medically there are several problems with the body that would cause deafness and HOH. The problem is with the ear, the nerves, or lack of brain...

I believe within 20 years, there will exist a hearing replacement device that will be equal to the ear or even superior. When a child gets this device as an infant, they will not require any rehabilitation. They will learn to use this device the same as any other child learns to use their...

In this argument, you must start with the FACT that there is nothing wrong with being hearing or being deaf. A deaf child is of equal value as a hearing child. So why is there any controversy? Hearing or deaf, if the child is part of a healthy loving family that child is not being harmed...

Personally, I think hearing should have hearing children. They are ill prepared to raise deaf children. They view deaf children as tragic. More often than not, they succeed in raising handicapped hearing, not deaf. But to be fair, there are great success stories: from the parents who learn ASL...

That's really cool. Where's the artwork? So has anyone tried the Sign Writing Playing Cards? I'll make an offer. I'll send a deck of Sign Writing Playing Cards to the first 5 people who send me a private message with their address. But you have to agree to use the cards and post...

One of the major reasons to write in ASL is so that other people can read it. Reading and writing are very important. Face to face is not always possible. And a video does not have the same power as the written sign. For a few examples... You could write about the Protest at Gallaudet...

Sorry. Context does matter. Sign Writing Sign Writing is a graphical notation for writing a signed language on paper. Visit the Official Sign Writing Home Page or Pittsburgh United for Deaf Litteracy for more information about Sign Writing. Sign Writing Playing Cards There is a lot to...

Hi, I'm back to talk about Sign Writing. Many people consider Sign Writing to be too complicated or a waste of time. If an adult can read and write English, why learn to read and write ASL. The problem is that Sign Writing will only be used when it is used. And Sign Writing will never be...

Exactly the question. I believe written will be the easiest way for Deaf to learn English. In theory, a Deaf child could be educated in ASL, then switched over to English half way through to complete their education. How old would a Deaf child need to be before that child could understand...
