  1. I just wanna learn sign language so i can curse out some people without them knowing what im saying. lol!

  2. @beth4chris1 I think its different in different places, I learned car as you make a small steering wheel motion in front of you, and for driving you just make a larger steering wheel motion.

  3. i want to be an inturperter(or however you spell that word) so this helped me start out, one of my best friends is deaf and it’s really nice understanding her sometimes because now i can kinda no what she is saying

  4. Nope, she’s not a teacher, that’s the problem. Canadian signs are ASL, unless they are LSQ. Many of her signs are not ASL or LSQ. I suspect she’s either doing them wrong, learned them wrong from a book she picked out of the library or they’re SEE … a coding system, not a language.

  5. Haha, I wanna hear the radio, because I’m deaf…

    Jk, obviously radio isn’t a completely useless word in ASL, but it’s still kinda funny.

  6. The teacher is Canadian, so she’s probably using Canadian signs which often differ slightly from ASL.

  7. Yeah, just because they can’t hear a radio doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. They’d still need to know how to say it. I’ve never been on a space ship, but I still know what that is, and can say and spell it.

  8. Umm, have you ever been to a deaf club?
    Probably not because your not deaf. They play music outrageously loud because some deaf people can barley hear, but only sounds that are very loud. And, deaf people can’t hear typical radio music, but they do need the sign for radio because they can put their hands on the radio and dance to the vibrations. Or maybe they want to say “Do you want a radio for Christmas?” Then they could ask that

  9. So wait, this is not ASL, just signed english?

    I just wanna learn a couple phrases or words in sign language (idk, i guess teh one deaf people actually use) so is ASL or signed english better for me?

  10. You have to remember that some people that sign can hear but might not be able to speak or at least not speak well.

  11. i agree with that, when your deaf you cant listne to the radio you cant even hear at all so WTF
