“Wanna Know Love” by Kristy Lee in Sign Language (SEE/PSE)


Another FINALLY as I complete my last Kristy Lee request (too much Red Bull tonight)! Alright, I did have a little help from my scene-stealin’ kitty 😉 I haven’t looked to see who requested that yet, but I know it was one of my first requests – one that I lost when I had to open up this new channel. Was it you, rainbowscraps??? Thanks for being so patient! LYRICS BELOW My story: To begin, Ichose my YT name so that my friend could find it easily — & I could remember it! It just made sense. However, now that it’s found it’s way to over 29000 people, I don’t like that it sounds like I’m an expert selling something. I am neither. I cannot change the name or I lose the videos, as well as the great, supportive comments I’ve received. I am not deaf. I was inspired to learn from my cousin & my ASL instructor, both of whom are deaf, as well as from a friend’s child. I am not an interpreter, although that may be a route I chose someday when my children are older. I have a long way to go to become even close to fluent in ASL, so I admire those that are. I also took classes to learn Signed Exact English (SEE) as some schools here use SEE to teach young children who are also learning to read. Signing here is not enough practice versus having real conversations with someone who is deaf; that is the best way to learn. I started signing to songs with my daughter for fun, then did my friend’s fav song for her birthday (“My Wish”). My email couldn’t handle the video, so I popped it up ….

im learning sign language. does anyone have any tips for me?

just anything about the language or how to make it easier to learn a new language. any general knowledge would help.

also, if anyone knows the answer to this question:
if little words (a, i, it, is… ect) are not exactly “relevant” to the understanding of the sentance, are they still Always signed?
just a thought.

thankyou thankyou thankyou =)

What Percent of the world speak and understand ASL (American Sign Language)?

Hello,

We have a 19 month old son, and he has been learning American Sign Language since he was 6 months old. He is not deaf, but we feel that by learning sign language he could communicate with a population in the world that he would not be able to otherwise. Since he is young, he is learning fast.

The question is, we are not sure if he would necessarily live in America when he grows up, so we would like him to learn a sign language which is mostly universal around the world – if at all there is a such a thing. If not, is ASL a good option, or should we concider a different sign language?

Thanks in advance for your input.

Regards,
Hooman-
