sign names
I am not deaf and I’d like to understand why half of the deaf community feels very protective over the concept of sign names and the other half feels very neutral towards it saying it’s just like a nickname.

I know you're supposed to get your sign name from a deaf person. My baby passed away at three months, and I hadn't gotten a chance to find the deaf community around me so she didn't get her name sign. I really would like for her to have a cool one. I want to be able to talk about her without finger spelling her name. I wasn't born deaf so I want to respect the culture. Does anyone know how I can get her name sign? Her name is Jaden. She was happy, curious, and calm. She loved music, being read to, baths, and her swing. She passed away due to a heart problem. I was learning ASL for her, but now I'm continuing to learn in memory of her, to be able to communicate with the deaf community, and because I'm having problems with my ears. Please if anyone can help I'd be so very thankful.

The sentence to interpret was “Lily’s younger brother is getting taller.” I didn’t see where there is a sign for “getting.” I had interpreted it as “Lily’s younger brother is taller” which was considered wrong.

In section 14, lesson 4 had a grammar issue with one of the sentences that needed to be interpreted. The word offered to select was vacation so the verb I chose was singular, is, but the answer said that was wrong and it should’ve been vacations are, but there was no plural “vacations” to choose. Also in the exam for first set of lessons in the first part of section 14, one of the sentences to be interpreted, the sign for the fruit given looked like lemon, but the only two fruit words offered to choose from were mango or strawberry berries, but the sign was neither mango nor strawberries. The answer wanted strawberries, but the sign used was not strawberries.

Hello guys, I just started learning ASL the other day and is it normal to not be able to read fast in ASL? I’m having a hard time reading their sign languages, is there any way I can improve—or does it improve over time?

My daughter has finally reached the same level as me in the leagues. We are both currently champion 3. This is her first time being there and going for grand champion. Congrats to her. I'm very proud of her. I have noticed that I am not playing as aggressively as I normally do because I want her to reach grand champion so it looks like I am sacrificing my position. Sacrifice is probably too strong of a word. 🤣 Anyway, I just wanted to put that out there. Being a parent does weird things to your normal competitive behavior I guess. 🤷♀️

When they sign m or n and they have there fingers pointing out is that the way you are supposed to do it cause I have seen it other ways.

I still don't understand sentences. It feels like the structure changes for each sentence. How would I sign "The blue book is under the big table"? Or "The beautiful cat is near the tree"?
Hedwig Granger8/6/2026 1 0Handedness
I noticed the directions for signs refers to “dominant” hand vs “non-dominant” hand instead of right vs left. I am right handed but 2 of my siblings are left handed. So do left handers sign the mirror opposite of right handers given their left hand is their dominant hand?
Kathy G8/5/2026 2 1🌺🌸What does ASL community mean to you?🌸🌺
The ASL community includes deaf people, hard of hearing people, children of deaf adults, allies of a deaf person, family members who have a deaf relative and people who know ASL. This community means belonging, caring, loving, and understanding to me.

Ella Rae ♡8/4/2026 8 4How Do Sentences Work?
How do sentences work? I can't figure out the correct structure. For example, I saw a question asking to sign "A big white house." I didn't know I had to put the signs as "House big white."

When signing numbers, my palm should be facing me for all of the numbers right ? Ex: number 25
