According with my experiences with my LSA teachers (always one hearing/one deaf) they alwasy said during the 3 years of the course, that, "we'll have to adapt to almost every deaf, since, everyone signs differently", also that "the signs we teach you here, are not the only ones, because most...

i've been thinking for weeks now... what if SL would had still developed without the deaf? maybe... we wont know. my theory? it could had. one day, the world will get a click. 100 years after that, you might find SL as POPULAR (that's the reason why ppl dont know it, because it is not) as...

ASL is probably the most studied SL in the world today.. BUT... For those opened to good ideas please read this http://www.acfos.org/publication/ourarticles/pdf/acfos2/svartholm.pdf IMO, ALL deaf in the world should be taught with their local SL, and then, as second language, the local...

:lol: lovely i'm building my own on PDF :)

all languages are dynamic, non static and constantly evolving and adapting. either oral ones or signed ones

hey.. thanks! i'm argentine, though :lol: :aw: ok. all that info duly noted.

ah.. ok thanks

night like the sign for night?

thanks ive youtube banned, here at work :(

yeah.. i thought so, it would be similar to ours. ive a small talk in LSA to give about how important to speak to ppl in their own language, and i wanted to start with "goodnigh. how are you" in ASL, so the audience understand the importance of using our language.

Good morning... :P I'm looking for the way of saying Goodnight, but not the one you say when you go to sleep, but the one for giving the welcome for a confference, for example. I've looked at ASLpro, but it seems for how the sign ends, is the one that you say when you go to sleep? or am i...

indeed. it has been around us just like any other language. It seems to be "new" because it actually started to be studied like almost 200 years ago. But, IMO, it existed in its form and variety since forever. :wave:

:lol: :h5:

wow. is there any way you can describe these sounds? im very intrigued...

i know... that's why i specified :)

I personally wish, borned deaf ppl could hear the sound of the water falling in a cascade.. Music (all kind) The wind Thunders Rain (on different surfaces) Voice of their beloved How poetry sounds The sound of the balls in different sports If you love cars, the sound of a powerfull Ferrari &/or...

i'm sorry if i seem rude or too straight forward (or too basic, if you want) I just believe we, hearings, got to make it up to them, after 200 years of our imperialism (and dictatorship) Let them be completely free, let them develope and adapt and realize by theyselves that they need some kind...

are you asking the deaf to react as we do? that's not the way it works. gee. If we'd meet, you'd be very surprised when i hug you and kiss you in the face (instead of the "cold", to me, hand shake that non southamericans use to drop) and should i expect? a kiss back? no. because thats not your...

As the Deaf fellas put it straight right in the previews posts, I'll just add my limited and humble (hearing) opinion and thoughts. I think you're right, and wrong at the same time. I'll drop you one. My wife started to think (since the time that she became fluent with the language) that...

wow... you really are agry, pal.:hmm:
