What are you thinking about? Part V

[DeafCaroline]

Can Angle step up to clear the air, what is she learning - ASL or SEE?
She never clarified in her posts. Posts without enough information like this causes confusion with everyone.

I don't think she even knows herself what she's actually learning.

How many times is to many times to contact an employer over a job?? So far one email and no response that was the 21st of December. Don't want to push it but I seriously want this job!!

21st of December? That was the beginning of the holidays, your email was most likely overlooked and forgotten. Email them again with your CV attached and this time, to ensure you get a response, ask a question that compels an answer.

Okay. Hopefully this works. This is from the SEE dictionary. Hopefully this clear things up. Again- I did not recommend anyone use these signs- I don't care who uses what. Just clarifying that I was not wrong in my statements.

Okay. Hopefully this works.

How weird!!!!! I have SEE dictionary *somewhere*, now I want find it. I think your book steer you wrong CSign. Nobody use circular this way actual practice. I think you get odd looks you use this way. Bounce or eat+noon much more acceptable.

Wow...lots knickers in twists over how sign meals...can we tell is now coldest, darkest, longest stretch winter? Everyone grouchy here too.

I think the coffee is a tad overdue this morning. :P

Actually, I have seen this from friends of my daughter who learned SEE in school.

(Although I foresee a downturn in friendly attitudes since I dare to say so.)

I'm afraid not all dictionaries are created equal and this is from a SEE dictionary no less.

I'm thinking I really really really don't want to go outside! It's so cold today. With wind chill factor, it's -20 Celsius ( -4 F ). Damn it, if only i have food in my fridge and if only the movies were due back tomorrow. Argh. When I was growing up, my mother would slather this Mary Kay wax on my face on days as cold as this so I wouldn't get frostbite from the wind. I wonder if anyone still does that anymore.

Wow, really? Maybe is regional difference?

You learn something new every day I guess!

 

[MyNameIsNO]

better people learn ASL first not SEE. my opinion SEE too confuse.

Sunny- The SEE book did not "steer me wrong". I made a simple statement that in SEE, that is how it is signed. Nothing more, nothing less. My statement has now been corroborated by the pictures I provided from the SEE dictionary. I'm not saying that's how anyone has to sign it. All I was saying is that is how it is signed in SEE, which it seems is what Angle was taught.

Thank you I was thinking the exact same thing, but didn't want to come off as pushy.

Bott- you are you. Exactly who you should be, and I admire your sense of self. I would certainly hope no one would be immature enough to change their ways with you simply because you are the only one willing to acknowledge those signs do exist. You are making a statement of facts- and people shouldn't get funny because another person is making a factual statement.

And I can tell you this since I'm from the same area angle is in and I grew up VERY see. It definitely bounces. There's no circular.

Please don't force us to learn your way when there are regional signs as well. Accept it and move on. Share your knowledge but don't preach it. It was interesting to hear about what you have found, but don't call us wrong.

Right. I understand. But this not how SEE users sign it (as far as I have seen, raise use SEE). Dictionary say eadness valid word mean happiness...dictionary probably right...but who actually use word eadness? Just because dictionary show, not mean correct actual practice.

Sunny- this is from the SEE Dictionary. Whether or not people commonly sign it that way is really not the point. The point is, that is how it is that is how it is signed in SEE which is what I was addressing.

You need a new see dictionary.

When was this dictionary published? From the looks of it, it looks like it was made in the late 70s to the early 80s. My workplace has them in the archives and some of us take them out and marvel how incorrect many of the pictures are.

I didn't call a group of people wrong. I responded directly to AlleyCat's statement that I'm "totally wrong" when in fact I wasn't. For the upteenth time, I was referring specifically to SEE.
