I didn't know your skill level in ASL but if you only use this app then you know less than 1% of what you would need to be fluent so it's totally normal to not be able to watch like for example an ASL interpreter and just follow their signs. so yeah it's totally normal to require lots of time end effort to become good at it so just let building your vocabulary and practicing and you'll get there

Important notice - ABC: Spelling Videos

We’ve received several reports from learners who noticed that the letter O can look like an E in some videos, like in the word “SOUP” in ABC 3, Lesson 2. Miss Lesli, is actually spelling S-O-U-P correctly. However, we completely understand why it can look like S-E-U-P, especially if you are still learning the differences between these handshapes. The confusion comes from the way the letter O is being presented in the video. When Miss Lesli forms the O, her fingertips are facing toward the camera, which makes the circular shape of the O difficult to see from the viewer's perspective. The O and E can look quite similar from this angle, particularly to someone who is still becoming familiar with ASL. There is an important difference: when forming the O, the fingertips come together with the thumb to create a complete closed circle. With the E, the fingertips curl down but do not form that same fully closed circle against the thumb. Unfortunately, the current camera angle makes this distinction much harder to see than it should be. We've actually received similar feedback from learners, so we agree that this is something we need to improve (Same with spelling videos where letters M & N are used). We will be updating these videos and adjusting how the signs are presented so that the handshapes and spelling are much clearer for new learners. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention and helping us improve Intersign!

Signing the Sign

Learning a few ASL signs used in Christian worship can help share faith in a clear and meaningful way. • God – An open hand moves upward from the forehead. The motion points upward, symbolizing God above us. • Jesus – The middle finger touches the center of each palm. This represents the nail wounds from the crucifixion. • Pray – Hands together near the chin in a prayer position, representing speaking to God. • Church – Fingers interlock, symbolizing believers gathered together as one body. • Bible – Hands open like a book, representing the Scriptures being read and shared. • Holy Spirit – A hand moves outward from the mouth like breath or wind, reflecting how Scripture often describes the Spirit. These signs are simple, meaningful, and a beautiful way to express faith through American Sign Language. What is your favorite sign?🤔🤔🔥

Just saying Hi👋👋👋

Hi👋👋 I am new here I am hearing but I have been around sign language all my life since I was little. I want to say that ASL is a way that all of God's people to be able to communicate. Hearing or not. I thank God for this app and for the ability to learn Asl.
