Glossing – Lesson 3 Omit English words that do not exist in ASL
Lesson 3 • There will be times when English words are not needed to convey a concept • Specifically a, an, the and to • To Be Verbs • When they appear only in a sentence omit them • Movies are fun • Can indicate tense (pasts, present, future)
Things to remember • Present progressive – currently ongoing • To Be verbs used with a verb ending in -ing • Change is, am, and are to the gloss word NOW • Is sleeping = • Are practicing = • Past progressive – ongoing in the past • To Be verbs used with a verb ending in -ing • Drop was or were • Context will tell that the sentence is past tense
Things to remember • Present perfect or past perfect • Has been ______ing or had been ______ing • Use the gloss word SINCE • Examples: • The baby has been eating well. • Past • The PAST sign indicates something occurred in the past • Continue • The CONTINUE sign indicates the action continues
Lesson 3A Examples • An apple is good for you. • The best students read the book. • They are bad, but my friend is good.
Lesson 3B Examples • My son can’t wait to see his cousin. • My uncle needs to control his dog.
Lesson 4 Using pronouns
Lesson 4A – Modifying personal pronouns • English • Subject pronouns: I, you, he, she, it, we, and they • Object pronouns: me, you, him, her it, us and them • ASL • I = • He = • She = • We = • They = • Gloss personal pronouns as ME, YOU, HE, SHE, IT, WE, THEY
Lesson 4B – Modifying Possessive Pronouns • Possessive nouns end with ‘s or s’ • It is possible for adjectives to appear between the possessive noun and the thing associated with the noun. • The tree’s green leaves • Their team’s old bus • Gloss possessive nouns without ‘s or s’ • Replace deleted ‘s or s’ with possessive pronoun • HIS, HERS, ITS, or THEIRS • If there is an adjective it should be glossed following the item it describes.
Examples: • Our principal’s responsibility • The interpreter’s skills. • The girl’s bicycle. • The tree’s green leaves. • Their team’s old bus.
Things to remember • In English the word her can be personal or possessive. • Give the book to her. • That is her book. • To help remember the difference gloss the personal “her” as SHE and the possessive “her” as HERS • Yours vs. yours plural • Gloss: YOURS or YOURS-pl
Things to remember • Pronouns are signed in space according to where the related noun is placed. • Only one referent = no notation • Second referent on the ND side = noun/pronoun-n • Third referent placed in a distinct place = noun/pronoun-cd or noun/pronoun-cn • Fourth referent = non used –cn or –cd • Example: • The father wants his son to go to bed. • Exception to the rule: Real space should reflect actual events
Lesson 4A - Examples • Please read for her. • I like him.
Lesson 4B - Examples • Is the boy’s bike broken? Q Q BOY HIS BIKE BREAK • Where are your teacher’s books? WHQ WHQ WHERE YOURS-pl TEACHER HIS BOOK+ • The car near the tree is ours.
