So if you said I want an apple, in sign language it would be me want apple or apple me want? Can you please help me figure it out!

Yw! my best friend is deaf and usually around her friends that do know ASL, she doesn’t wear her hearing aids so that’s why I’m learning it for her and that’s how I know.

That's sweet! I have don't have a family member or friend who is deaf but I have met someone at a playground once who couldn't bear and I played with her but we couldn't communicate that is why I wanted to learn sign language

communication

I am wondering when… *The person you are talking about is not present* Say your in a conversation and your talking about “him” or “her”, do you specify in the conversation, “girl” before you point on the side of you or “boy” to be specific in who you are talking about? Thx

sign order

I am not sure about sign order. One of the questions in a section exam is to pick the sign order for the phrase “My car is black.” I have tried every combination of selecting the signs for my, car, black … rearranging the signs like “car black my” or “my car black” or “car my black” … and none of them are correct. What is the correct order? My main critique of this app is that it does not adequately teach sentence structure. It mentions it like once and gives no continued instruction to understand how to handle new adjectives.
