Week 3 2/23

So far, I have done a lot of research on how sign language varies in its different forms and the reasons why it works. It is actually way more complicated than I expected it to be. It’s a lot deeper than just hand signals. You also have to incorporate facial expressions, body language, and the space around yourself. I found videos online to help teach it to myself. I’ve been watching them. SO far I can do the alphabet with my hands and a few other basic words but otherwise I don’t know much. I still need to learn how to form sentences and use the grammar rules. I understand that learning an entire language in one semester is a near impossible feat. However, I don’t want to learn the whole language, well I do, but I’m hoping that by the end of the semester I can carry on a basic conversation in sign language.
