conversational signs
⢠When signing with another person, do not look away from them when the person is signing. This would be considered rude to the signer. If you are with a deaf person who signs, it is not appropriate to stop signing and start speaking with another person that is hearing in the presence of a deaf signer. Make your best attempt to sign as much of what you are voicing as possible.
⢠If you are with a Deaf person (i.e., a person that considers him/herself a part of Deaf Culture) and the person corrects your sign, accept the correction and continue with the conversation. Do not correct a Deaf personâs sign.
⢠To get a deaf personâs attention, you can tap on his/her shoulder, flick on the light switch, or wave once.
Hello, my name is (then fingerspell your name).
TIP: The old adage âIf you donât use it, you lose itâ holds very true with ASL. Continued practice and exposure to people who sign ASL will help you learn and master the language.
