You should just ask her questions! I'm sure she would be happy to answer them for you![]()

So, I thought I'd try to get a little more connected with her world, try to find out some things before asking sensitive questions, find imaginative ways to communicate, stuff.
If you are an adult, and she is just a girl, as you first mention, I'd be a bit careful -- maybe talk with her parents first if you have questions -- I know my daughter has been warned about talking with strangers. They will let you know her preferred communication method.
Otherwise, if she's old enough to write, or is a grown woman, notes are an easy way to communicate. Or follow her lead -- how is she interacting with others? Maybe she has HAs on and can pick up speech sounds, maybe she speechreads those who can't use sign, maybe she uses sign ... How do you usually strike up conversations with women?
The OP said she is a woman so there is no need to talk to the parents . And if the OP was an adult and she was a girl I would not think it would wise to talk to her parents , I would think they call the cops!
