#SignLanguage
When I was taking #asl classes in high school, I was taught that you were not allowed to create your own sign name -- that it had to be given to you by a #Deaf person. At the time, I didn't really question it. But since then, I've spent a lot of time learning from #trans people and being part of the #nonbinary community, and from those experiences, I've learned to place a very high value on being able to decide for yourself how people refer to you -- especially names. That has made the situation with sign names a sticking point for me.
I haven't had any involvement in the Deaf community. I had recently wondered if attitudes toward sign names had changed now that the world as a whole is more cognizant of trans and nonbinary experiences, but I watched the Furality panel on #signlanguage in VR today, and it seems like the stance is the same as when I was in high school. It feels hostile in a way, especially to trans and NB people.
I think right now I really need people to tell me things
Rather than finding it by accident, I went looking for info on Albanian sign language and found a few things. The language is relatively young.
Unfortunately my long-ago semester in ASL doesn't help me spot how related or not it is to ASL.
Diesel engines are noisy.
If boaters could sign even 20 words, we could communicate with each other.
Perhaps such warnings as:
• Person In Water.
• Unpowered Craft.
• Underwater Obstacle.
• Boat Behind Me (out of view).
• X Feet Clearance (at a bank or lock).
Or such messages as:
• I'm Mooring Here/Now.
• Your Boat Will Fit Here.
• I Want To Pass You.
What phrases would you want every boater to know?

It's been a long, but good day. Following my usual morning e-mail catch-up, I managed to do about an hour's worth of research-related work before cycling to a workshop on International Sign organised as part of the #LingCologne2025 conference. Fascinating workshop, very well taught, but, boy, is my memory of signs bad! 🙈
Eurovision - how do you convey those songs, full of attitude, emotions, and sexual innuendo...through sign language?

My youngest appears to have selective mutism. She often goes silent when she's hungry or emotionally distraught. Does anybody have suggestions as to some good resources for basic signing? I could also use some suggestions as to which signs are the most useful to learn. I'm thinking that if I can learn some, I can teach her as well, and it will really smooth things out when she's unable to speak.

I made the mistake of pressing the "Translate" button on that post. It didn't exactly help. LOL! :-)

The proud Puerto Rican rapper, doctor and author exudes enthusiasm and smiles, accompanied by vocalists, flute, piano, trumpet, tenor sax, guitar, bass and more. PJ is the first artist to incorporate a sign language interpreter (Alexssa Hernández) into a Tiny Desk show. We're sharing this link with everyone we know.

🚀 Professor Dr Pamela Perniss, Chair of Sign Language Interpreting: German Sign Language - German, talks about her love for her research and educational work, her colleagues and students and the special contribution sign language makes to people's inclusion in society, education and life.
If I ever wanted to learn ASL, I wonder how it would work if I'm blind if its hand gestures that require sight to actually respond to? Genuinely curious. #Blind, #ASL, #SignLanguage
🎞️ "The Way We Talk" (HK 2024, dir. Adam Wong). A wonderful film, very cinematic, with a great script and cast. A profound exploration of identity and the complexities of deaf culture through the experiences of its young characters. Super interesting to see the tension here between cochlear implants and sign language in the deaf community.
