Don't blame the sweet and tender hooligan
=]
I don't know if I ever had an audience.. so I don't think it was that much of a problem that I stopped updating.
However if there was someone reading.. OTHER THAN MAHTAB... sorry to keep you waiting?
I know how important the rants of a fourteen year old are to some people...
Have you ever had to learn something that you thought was completely useless bull? (Only everything I learned in grade school! Some people may be thinking..)
Well, have you ever learned the useless garbage only to find out that, useless as it may be to you, it's actually kind of fun? This is how I feel about ASL gloss.
What I'd like to know is how often ASL gloss actually gets used though. Lets say Ted (who is deaf..) was writing a note to his best friend Susan (who is also deaf..) about what he thinks of his new Science teacher. Would Ted write
"I don't think I like him. He seems boring and mean."
Or does he write
"IX-HE BORING AND MEAN IX NOT LIKE IX-HE"
I'm not even sure if that's the correct way to gloss that sentence...
Anyway, Stephanie is coming over so we can write a script for our ASL project which is basically just us standin in front of a camera signing things like
"Do you know where the cafeteria is?"
and
"Are you deaf?"
"No, I'm learning sign"
"Oh, I see. What school do you go to?"
"I go to DHS. My Sign teachers name is Lenny Granda."
"Same!"
"Wow! My Name is So and So'
"Nice meeting you So and So my name is This and That"
"Do you have the time?"
"Yes its this time"
"Oh, I'm late. It was nice meeting you. Goodbye!"
"Bye!"
Amazing, no?
That's almost exactly what our script looks like only with actaul names and in a different order. And we have to gloss it! :D
Okay, so, now I need to go and scream or something because that's just the way things work.
