ASL | Dialogues With Family Vocab | American Sign Language

IN THIS COURSE, our goal is to learn to sign mini-dialogues in American Sign Language (ASL) like “YOU HANDSOME. SHE BEAUTIFUL. THEY WHO? SHE MY BEAUTIFUL AUNT. HE YOUR PARTNER.” To achieve this, we’ll learn family words, pronouns, adjectives for describing people, ASL grammar, and how to use the question word “who”. We’ll combine what we’ve learned to create phrases, complete sentences, questions, and mini-dialogues. Along the way, I’ll frequently test you to see if you’re able to sign correctly and understand what I’m signing.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:

  • Hello! My name is Michael. When I was three years old, my younger brother became sick with spinal meningitis. In the process, my brother became deaf with an almost complete hearing loss. This difficult situation provided a unique opportunity for my family and I to become fluent in American Sign Language (ASL). Unlike some deaf children, my brother was not sent away to a deaf or hard of hearing school. He grew up with us, his hearing family, and we were active in the deaf community.

  • As a police officer and federal investigator, I often used ASL to communicate with and interpret for witnesses, victims, and perpetrators. I decided to create ASL courses because it’s a useful and practical skill to have. Like learning any language, it opens your mind and creates the ability to communicate with a whole new group of people.

Sign and understand phrases, sentences, questions, and dialogues using ASL family vocabulary, pronouns, and adjectives.
