Trix Bruce's English Equivalents and Handshape Workshops Coming!!
Trix Bruce's English Equivalents and Handshape Workshops Coming!!
Saturday, July 24, 2010 @ 5 pm – 8 pm
Handshape Common Misuse:Really? Did I sign that?
The Handshape is probably the most apparent parameter of ASL. Linguists have identified a large number of discrete handshapes, which the signs are most look-like. Trix will demonstrate several categories that demonstrate various degrees of similarity for particular Handshapes, which can lead to misunderstandings. She will also show the proper application of palm orientation, location, and movement for the Handshapes.

ENGLISH EQUIVALENTS: Whoa! Train Zoom Gone. Did You See What She Signed? What did she mean by that and how can I say it in English?
English Equivalents help the student take signs that do not have just one translation in English and help the participant become aware of idiomatic English translations along with some technical vocabulary associated with particular signs. English Equivalents in ASL will help you confidently continue the flow of information exchange from ASL to English and from English to ASL.
