can anyone tell me where I could buy this video??? plz email me ty
This video…just really didn’t help me. I have 3 aunts who are deaf and I want them to know that I’m not ignoring them when they are trying to communicate with me.
@naddiegirl1 … that was kinda mean. “don’t act deaf”….
it didnt help
i didnt learn anything here…..
I want to learn how to speak sign language… then I want to make friends with a deaf person, and together we will sign our way to world domination!
All I know is Melissa Shank should feel really horrid about that ” Basics of Signing” poster… I mean, are you kidding me?! Let’s at least attempt to be a little professional please… I stopped the video at 22 seconds in just because of that crap… Let me know you’re thoughts, feel free to message me… Thanks! :o)
Actually, she gets paid to create these videos. She’s not doing it from “the goodness of her heart.” Rather she is blatantly teaching things incorrectly and could care less because ExpertVillage is paying her to do it.
It is NOT common to mouth when signing. In fact, it is inappropriate. There are specific “non-manual signs” (mouth movements) that have meaning. Thus “mouthing” words interferes with using these NMS. I would strongly suggest looking for other sources to learn ASL rather than from this woman.
I have a question:
Commonly, when using sign language, people mouth out the words so that the person can read your lips if they are new to signing, confused by your signing, etc. But does that apply to foreigners who sign? Should you mouth out the words at all, or would it just confuse them, since the language they are used to seeing spoken is different. It’s an unlikely event, but how would that go about?
thanks.. it really helps me to learn how to sign..
I think shes being very helpful thanks a mil for these videos they are very helpful 🙂
Thanks for the lessons. You are great for trying to help others. I am elarning from you.
Some of you are being very judgmental about a person whom is just trying to provide a benefit to others.
Thanks for the videos!!
Oh come on guys, have some respect. She is doing this at no benefit for her own and without her seies of clips there would be very little help you could get without having to pay for it. Don’t dis the effort.
are you joking, she isn’t very hot.
