ASL Idioms
Hey, interpreters!! Earlier, I posted on ASL Idioms, and thought “hey, why not explore this topic a little more broadly”. So here we are. Next to jokes, Idioms are one of the hardest things to me interpret, and I’m sure I’m not the only one. The English language has a lot of Idioms, unfortunately that are used in everyday language. So to help explore Idioms, let’s get some help from Taylor. Taylor actually has a three part segment on Idioms. Try using some of these in your daily signing! Happy Interpreting!!
ASL Resources
Hey, Interpreters!!! So just to provide you guys with a few online resources for sign language, YouTube has a few playlist that involves subjects that range from Deaf Gain, Black ASL, Proximalization, and many different vocabulary. These are three that I thought might be helpful in your Interpreting Journey. Happy Interpreting!!
