    Mouth morphemes and nonmanaual communication

    Good catch, Southern!! But it shows that they are comfortable around you. I had a long-time hearing friend since 4th grade (different schools, etc but always stay in touch), and in 10th grade, we got a class together at the same school-- so we were talking (in ASL ofc) and she asked me a...

    Tent-Cities Across the World

    Ditto here. :-) For San Diego, we got a different sign since it was a tent-beach-- with one hand for "tent" while the another hand mimics the wave being crashed next to the tent hand. Nifty, huh? San Diego Deaf Community for FSSA if you want to see the sign itself in the vlog clip...

    I'm hearing, you're Deaf, i'm sorry

    I got something to top the phrase "oh i am sorry" when you meet a hearing person-- After realizing you are Deaf, the most typical response is: "I don't know sign language! I only know this (signing "thank you" but in an odd way), and that (signing "please" or "more" but in baby signs)... but...

    SSDI and Move another state Question

    Some people cannot afford a passport. If they are on SSI, then obviously they don't have enough funds to pay for a passport after paying for the bills, food, et cetera. So it is a catch-22-- you want to save money by living in a cheap country over the border BUT you gotta save up a bit to BUY a...

    5 letter word game

    flame (I notice that DeafSkeptic went off the track with "blare" from "bared" which changed the order of letter-- should we go to the original word of "bared" or keep going with it?)

    What do you think Deaf get CDI?

    not everybody needs a CDI-- right but it is strongly felt that all interpreter companies should send BOTH hearing and CDI and have the CDI *determine* if the Deaf client can relay on the hearing interpreter alone... For many years, the hearing interpreter *REFUSED* to ask for a CDI because...

    What do you think Deaf get CDI?

    In America, we call "CDI" as Certificated Deaf Interpreters. It helps those Deaf clients who don't understand the culture of Hearing people-- when they speak idioms or attitude that the Deaf client may overlook because the hearing interpreter just signs word for word-- no facial expression (we...
