    I’m a musician by night, but by day I run a bbq business, and I cater a lot of nights during the week to a chicken plant, and there is some dead people working there. And I see them get frustrated that no one can talk to them. And they have to get their phones 📱 and write out what they need to say. So I’m learning sign as fast as I can

    I watch your videos in my free time as I wanted to start learning sign language a while ago. I, nor no one in my family is deaf, mute, or hard of hearing, but I decided to give learning it a try in case I ever meet someone who uses sign language, and also because knowing another language couldn't hurt. And it's been so fun learning all of these signs! I even use a couple with my little brother like "no," "stop," and I've even shown him the alphabet before

    Hello. I absolutely love and appreciate your channel. Thank you for what you do! I have a question about ASL grammar, specifically regarding "relative clauses" and "subordinate and coordinate conjunctions." I am a linguist and foreign language teacher. So It's been my thinking that these concepts that we use in verbal language may potentially not be what they are called in ASL ( For example, it's possible that these concepts may fall under another syntactic categorical umbrella such as topicalization, etc..). But if these are concepts that are used in ASL, do you know of a book that I could buy that could go into more detail about how they are applied? Because of my background, I desire to identify the scope of all categories of ASL grammar/typology and would love a great resource that can help me with that.

    I sign and talk in some videos specifically when there’s a live audience or when interacting with a deaf or hard of hearing individual. That is Sim-Com which is not ASL, it’s more signed exactly English. Since we utilized CC on KZread and teach ASL, we decided not to confuse Grammar and structure by using Sim-Com. Teaching completely voice off like many Deaf or signing with a voiceover are other ways I could teach. This is just the format we chose for KZread and have stuck to it.

    Disappointed that as a Christian you have "partner" on a FAMILY signs video that I shared with my children. In general, many of these weren't "family" specific but that one carries meaning wrapped up in sin when it's supposed to be about family not something like a business arrangement. Please keep these videos safe for children.

    That is very bold of you to place judgement on us for "trying to insinuate anything". We included several "relationship" signs that aren't necessarily "family" signs just because the bucket they belong to is too small for their own video. Also we didn't teach any deeper meaning of the term "partner". It can refer to a married couple as well, it's a more generalized term. We are teaching a language and that is a common word used to describe a relationship. As parents of young children, and yes Christians, we are very mindful of making content that is safe for the whole family. Yes, you don't have to show our video(s) to your kids, but please don't make your own interpretation, cast judgement and publicly paint a negative picture of who we are and not expect us to defend ourselves.
