Fingerspelling Practice (American Sign Language) (ASL) (Charissa) (Level 1)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ก.ย. 2024
- ASL Receptive Fingerspelling Practice.
Intended Audience: Mid-semester, Level 1 (Beginner)
Dr. Bill of ASL University (Lifeprint.com) drills a volunteer student (Charissa) on fingerspelling.
--------------------------------------
Note from Dr. Bill: Yes, I know that at times I spell "very fast" to beginner level students. I do that on purpose to help them get past always trying to read "letter by letter." The goal is to learn to recognize the shape and flow of fingerspelled words. I intentionally challenge the students to see how much they are capable of accomplishing.

Hello ASL Heroes!!!
Hey, I could really use your help.
If you’ve enjoyed having access to an expert in ASL you can help me continue my work for you.
A donation from you would instantly make a big difference here at the studio because teachers don’t earn much and I could use some help paying for server and domain hosting for Lifeprint.com.
Right now you can help out a humble (not to mention kind, caring, generous, compassionate, helpful, friendly, fair, and hard-working) ASL teacher -- just go here and a few clicks later you too will be a true “ASL Hero!”

Please keep making videos of finger spelling its one of my weakness and its actually helping Thank u💕
She did a great! I will have to replay this video over and over. I have such a difficult time restructuring my mind to read and decode FS. Thank you this will be very helpful.
Bill, I love the way you teach. I try and teach the same way! I have really good facial expressions and my students tell me that helps a lot!
I can't believe this is level one!!!! I am in ASL 2 and I feel soooo left behind hahaha. I love your videos and I absolutely enjoy your energy.
The secret is that the mind is built to recognize patterns. You can start with two different words (or "choices") and then spell them blazingly fast and the brain only needs to pick out the overall shape or any other clue and decide that "this" is not "that."
Thus bat, cat, fat, hat, mat, pat, sat, & vat can be spelled at pretty much "any" speed once the brain knows that the second and third letters are a pattern and it only needs to discern the first letter and "the pattern." At that point it is not much harder than recognizing a single letter.
Then you systematically introduce "more patterns."

Dude I get that! I hit lesson 40 and I'm so lost when he turbi spells, I'm going back to binge these and level up my FingerSpelling game. Gotta grind to get better sometimes, I guess 🤷♂️

Hi Bill. I love your videos, and just ordered your "SuperUSB". I am learning ASL, and look forward to having a course that will give me a systematic form of study. I am just beginning, learned the alphabet this week, but have some personal reasons to learn ASL as soon as I can, but correctly too. Thank you for making your expertise available on the forum.
Delucent, Hello :)
Also make sure to visit: th-cam.com/users/billvicarsvideos and find the search tab to the right of the "about" tab. Then do a search for the "lesson" you are on -- to see any related videos to that lesson. Oh sure, I'm in the process of always trying to organize my resources more clearly and will continue to do so -- but Google provides their amazing search functions "intra-channel" if you use that search tab to the right of the "about" tab. Worth checking out.
Excellent resource for practice! Thank YOU
i just staring learning ASL and I love that way your teach you are an amazing teacher I need to learn because I have two sisters and two brothers deaf, we are from Mexico so is different signs. but now i want to learn ASL and I doing it with your videos. Thank you, thank you. We love you so much.
You are so welcome!
Bill u have teach a lot students. Good job

This was very helpful!
Fast fingerspelling is the HARDEST to learn for an older hearing person. Are there more videos of FS practice? 😁👍
See: www.lifeprint.com/asl101/fingerspelling/
Also see: th-cam.com/video/va1aAXpVr2w/w-d-xo.html
3:08 not me dying cuz i thought durrrr instead of dr 🤣
👌👌👌👌👌
This makes me feel like I will never learn. It is soo fast.
You may need to stop trying to catch individual letters and instead see it as an overall handshape.
Or perhaps start with a slower video?
See: th-cam.com/video/va1aAXpVr2w/w-d-xo.html
-- that is the fingerspelling playlist. I'm sure you can find something more your speed.
Or watch the video on a desktop computer and click on the gear icon (or settings button) and tell TH-cam to play it at half speed or one-quarter speed.
Also consider using your back arrow key to jump back in time a few seconds when you miss one and re-watch it a few times to see if the word jumps out at you.
Or visit my practice website at asl.ms/mobile
or on a desktop use asl.ms
Or (again, on desktop or laptop computer) see:
www.lifeprint.com/asl101/fingerspelling/
and try one of the slower paced quizzes by going here: www.lifeprint.com/asl101/fingerspelling/practicequizzes.htm
and start with quiz 1 and work your way up.
She's such a lovely 😂😂❤
Maan I can't follow :( why is this harder than names. Guess my brain was guessing most letters at the names part. I don't knooow wow
Why do not you create your own site and put lessons according to levels and allow subscription annually , This would be great for learners And thank you for the great lessons

@@sign-language thank you
Is nyob an acronym or just random letters?
NYOB is a mutated acronym. It originated as None Of Your Business but it is easier to spell NYOB than NOYB.
Thus these days it is more like an acronym of None of YOur Business. Some people drop the "O" and just do NYB!
At 4:39 Bill, your R looks like a K.
Gregory:
Nah. It looks like an "R" spelled at high speed.
Just to make sure we are discussing the same "letter" -- you are referring to the letter I do between the M and the S at the 4:38 mark yes?
If you'd like to bet money on this, say $10 (or more if you are feeling confident) I'd be happy to take your money (as a donation to ASLU of course).
I'll do a frame grab of the letter I show between the M and the S.
We can then post it out of context and with an ambiguous file name to the Lifeprint.ASLU FB group and ask: What letter do you think is being spelled in this frame? I bet 51% or more (of skilled signers) who weigh in during a 24 hour period will say an "R."
Here's a link to the framegrab:
lifeprint.com/asl101/signjpegs/r/r-lexicalized-02.jpg
For the bet we would cut out the context so as to not influence their opinion by seeing the "R" typed on the screen behind me:
lifeprint.com/asl101/signjpegs/r/lexicalized-letter-example.jpg
Plus it would be a fresh upload so as to avoid the "r" in the internet address path.
lifeprint.com/asl101/signjpegs/r/lexicalized-letter-example.jpg
;-)
@@sign-language My understanding of R in regards to ASL is that the fingers are meant to be together, not with space in between. High speeds or not, your forming of this letter could be seen as what I saw: moving fingers to form a letter. Unfortunately, nothing specific. Now I'm sure there is a understanding with "experienced" signers about what is acceptable about how fingers should be placed and then understood, but I was hoping to find little to no ambiguity.
You will encounter lots and lots of ambiguity in the type of fingerspelling that is done amongst those of us who spend our days interacting in the Deaf community. Sure, we can slow down and be unambiguous when necessary (such as when conveying passwords, phone numbers, addresses, or similar information) but for most everyday life interaction it just isn't efficient to clearly articulate each letter of each fingerpelled word.
The fingerspelling drill videos I did with Charissa and other students that day showed that with practice it is possible to catch words spelled at very high speed. Charissa (and the other students that day) were in my ASL 1 class -- literally in their first semester course -- and after a few minutes of intense drilling were able to catch my fingerspelling of short words at high speed. Sure, it was mostly pattern recognition and context -- but pattern recognition and context are used outside of the classroom as well.
Warm regards and best wishes to you in your studies.
Thank you for that. I realize now that I was mistaken and also realize how inflexible I've been about something new that I am trying to be proficient at. I have learned a lot from your videos and wish to continue to do so. It must be very difficult having to spend your own money on this project and having someone like myself demonstrating what we don't know can't help matters. You've been very understanding and tolerant and I thank you for that.
Greg
this makes me realize just how bad i am at this
Go through the fingerspelling playlist and I bet you will become quite a bit better before you get done:

@@sign-language I’ll try to stay determined, thank you Bill!!
