Lesson 1 Family Unit 4 Unit 4 3
Ordinal Numbers First Second Third Fourth Fifth Sixth Seventh Eighth Ninth Numbers that describe order, ordinal numbers, are twisted forward up to ninth. For tenth and up, sign the number then add a fingerspelled “th”. ASL does not use “nd” or “rd” as an ending for the larger ordinal numbers. For example, English uses 22nd but ASL uses 22th. For street names, the ending is sometimes just omitted. Unit 4 Unit 4 4

Lesson 3 Gender Related and Relationship Descriptions Unit 4 Unit 4 29
Gender Distinction in ASL Masculine MASL p. 128 Feminine You may have noticed by now that ASL distinguishes gender aspects of signs by locating a sign in either the masculine or feminine areas of the face, as seen in the illustration. Depending where you place the sign cousin, it means female cousin or male cousin. What other signs do you know with gender distinction? Unit 4 Unit 4 30

Compound Signs MASL p. 133 Many of the signs you recently learned are compound signs, which are two separate signs combined to make an additional meaning. Combining the signs for mother and father creates parents, and girl plus same (in its older form) means sister. When using compounds, sign each portion quickly and smoothly in one motion. Can you think of other compound signs you know? ? parents sister Unit 4 Unit 4 38

Lesson 4 Shoulder Shifting – Contrastive Structure Unit 4 Unit 4 41
Shoulder Shifting“Eyes on ASL #8” There are three main uses for Shoulder-Shifting in ASL. In this section, you will use Shoulder-Shifting to ask and answer questions that incorporate more than one detail or piece of information. Using Shoulder-Shifting in this way is known as contrastive structure. This generally takes the place of “and.” Shoulder-Shifting is related to the concept of deixis in which the index finger points to a person or object which may or may not be visible. It is a way to distinguish several pieces of information in a signed sentence by slightly moving your head and shoulders in a different direction for each detail. Shoulder-Shifting is used for: contrasting: Multiple topics or pieces of information in the same sentence; comparing: What more than on person says or does; separating: More than on idea or concept in the same sentence; MASL p. 131 Unit 4 Unit 4 42
