Learn how to sign with just your body. Use your body sign words and tense. Also, learn to express yourself with mouth morphemes and why it is important.
We also break down the Time-Topic-Comment grammar structure and apply two different topic orders. First we sign our sentence with subject first, then we sign the same sentence with object first.
We also throw in some deaf slang and an abstract poem in sign. This video packs a wealth of information and is intended for an advanced student with a basic ASL background and wanting to take their skills farther.
For those brand new to ASL, do not panic. We will slow it down in coming videos and readdress each of these topics one at a time.
Knowledge is power and this video is meant to give you a taste of just how much power is in ASL. So, you can be excited knowing you are on your way to mastering this awesome language.
