  2. What are the Parameters of ASL? • P – Palm Orientation • H - Handshape • E - Expressions • L - Location • M - Movement

  3. Palm Orientation • Which way your palm should face • Up • Down • out • in • Left • Right • Example: Table or Baby?

  4. Handshape • Shapes of your hands (using the alphabet and numbers to sign) • Confused hand shapes – 1/D, D/F, E/O • Example: I am Rita vs. My Rita

  5. Facial Expression • Head nods/shakes, eyebrows, nose, eyes, and lips each carry a meaning that can be attached to a sign. • Example:

  6. Location • Begin and end your sign at the correct position • Signs are directional and originate away from the body but end close, or begin close to the body and terminate away • Example: I’ll see you tomorrow

  7. Movement • Types • Arc • Straight line • Circle • Alternating in and out • Twist of the wrist • Finger flick

  8. Changes in Movement • Location change – one or both hand(s) move from one location to another

  9. Changes in Movement • Direction change – one or both hand(s) change direction

  10. Change in Movement • Hand shape change – one or both hand(s) change hand shape in mid-sign

  11. American Sign Language • Is not universal • Is not English • There are several different sign languages but only ASL is the REAL language. • Native language of the North American Deaf population.

  12. 6 different sign languages: • Non-verbal Communication • In-group signs • ASL • PSE (Pidgin Sign English) • Manual English (SEE 1, SEE 2, LOVE) • Rochester Method

  13. Non-verbal communication • Natural gestures • Facial expressions • Body movement • Used internationally • Used when common language is not available

  14. In-group signs • Home signs • School Signs • Local Signs • Signs are unique to a particular group or family • Examples: football, baseball, gang, subway

  15. ASL • Standard Signs • Finger spelling elements of pantomime • Syntax of its own Ideographic • Visual language that is conceptually accurate. • Example: I went to the store yesterday is signed as YESTERDAY I GO STORE.

  16. PSE (Pidgin Sign English) • Standard Signs • Contact language between English and ASL (Hearing and Deaf) • 3 guidelines followed; • ASL in English word order • using articles and verb tenses is optional • noun plurality is deleted. • Example: I went to the store yesterday is signed and mouthed as I GO STORE YESTERDAY

  17. Manual English • SEE 1 • Seeing Essential English: Used in Amarillo and sometimes in Richardson, TX (Amarillo sign System) • One-on-One correlation for changing sound to hand movement. • Uses initialized signs • visual code for Manual English • Example: comfortable, forgetfulness

  18. Manual English • SEE 2 • Signing Exact English • one sign for each morpheme in English • Example: I went to the store yesterday is signed as I GO + ED TO THE STORE YESTERDAY.

  19. Manual English • LOVE • Linguistics of Visual English • Deaf morphemic language that is/was not conceptually accurate. • Example: I went to the store yesterday is signed as I GO + ED TO THE STORE YESTER + DAY.

  20. Rochester Method • Used when a word needs to be expressed but no sign is available. • Finger spell every single word. • Example: I went to the store yesterday is signed as I W-E-N-T T-O T-H-E S-T-O-R-E Y-E-S-T-E-R-D-A-Y.
