Yup, how many here have learned or are learning ASL? I am learning it right now, but i've learned quite a lot about deaf culture and such, and how it is quite a small deaf world, due to the limited ammounts of schools that they can go to(unless they can hear well enough that they can go to normal school).
I really like ASL because it's a visual language, not a spoken one. I'm more visually oriented, so it's easier for me to understand the concepts and such.
It's pretty fun to be in a conversation, but some deaf people just talk and talk and talk, since they all know each other so well. ^^
Most of the Deaf people where I live all meet at like, Starbucks near the city mall, and they meet there for like, 4-5 hours every saturday. They really have some long convos. It's insane. gonk 3nodding
What are your thoughts on ASL?
Oh yes, and an edit.
ASL is quite different from the American language, since a lot of the word order is different, and also some of the grammatical features such as explaining things which in normal english are because we would say something like:
````````````````````````````````````````````-Whq?- This good table (point to right to establish a place for it). Why? It very-cheap.
This is written ASL though. ^^
