Hello ASL Heroes!!!
Hey, I could really use your help.

Hi Bill, I’d like to buy a T shirt 👕 but it seems to come in only S or XS, any other sizes available? I’m nowhere near that size. Thanks!
Alan,
Hello :)
I took a look and to my eyes it looks like the various spectrum of size choices are available.

I just LOVE your videos! I am not deaf or H.H. but, as a child, I had a coach who's wife was deaf. (I was about 9-10 years old) I was in awe watching them communicate with ASL. It was my first time seeing it in person, and I loved it so much, I had her teach me what she could. Over the years, I tried to practice as much as I could ( I was also learning Spanish), but I lost a lot of what my first teacher had taught me. Once when I was in college, working at an IHOP, I had a man come in who was deaf. His face lit up when he saw that he could put his note pad and pen away. Just like that, it all came flooding back, and I was just so overjoyed. He told me that I had made his night. That he would never forget me. I never forgot him, either. 10 more years down the line, I have two children. A 7 year old girl and a 5 year old boy. Both have their full hearing abilities and both are able to use ASL enough to have a conversation with someone. That is something I want to pass down to each generation. The gift of communication. Because the best way to touch someone's heart, is to speak to their soul. With or without words. Thank you for making these videos. Not only do I watch them, but my children watch with me. We make it a family fun activity! -Madelon
AngryGamerHappyMother HONEST Product Reviews wow such a beautiful story !!
ØmgUrØnFire thank you! It is one that I carry with me in my heart. 💖
What a great story, I have a deaf co-worker who has to write things down sometimes when things get complicated. When I found out he was on my shift and deaf I started looking for youtube videos that I could learn ASL from so that I could communicate with him efficiently. These videos have been a great help to me.
One time at work a food truck came because a business opened up that was close by and they were trying to promote and I was in line and one of my co-workers tapped me on the shoulder and said "I think he wants to ask you about the food". I turned around and it was him and he wanted to know the prices and other things about the food. It makes me so happy to be able to know a decent amount of ASL just from watching this channel. Language learning is very fun and very good for your brain and critical thinking. Thanks for sharing your story with us!
this is so beautiful!
Hello, how are you doing 4 years later?
I think it is so wonderful what you're doing and providing free lessons online.
Hi Bill! I recently found you and I just want to say Thank You! We are adopting a 13 year old, deaf boy from China. He was about to age out of the system and no one wanted him because he was older, he couldn't hear...and he was a boy. I fell in love with him and now we get to be his parents, but we are a hearing family. We sit down in the evening as a family and watch your youtube videos to learn ASL. There isn't much ASL in our community, and if it wasn't for you, we would be lost. Thank you and God bless!
Thank you so much for creating this program!!! My 3 yr old son is deaf in 1 ear. All of the professionals, doctors, speech paths, audiologist, ect. All said he would be fine and would be able to learn how to speak no problem because he can hear in one ear. We went for an evaluation to get him into early childhood education for an evaluation and labeled him as intellectually disabled because he has a speech delay and he didn't understand what they were asking. I decided to take off work to focus on getting him to talk. We are learning sign together! Within one month of signing with him, he is meeting all of his developmental milestones and speaking and signing in sentences. Again, thank you so much. I owe my child's well-being to this wonderful resource.
Hello Lauren!
Letting you know that I have read and appreciate your comment.
Your experience and situation are precisely why I originally developed the "ASL University" curriculum and Lifeprint.com website.
Best wishes to you and your son.

My g’dd
My granddaughter contacted the cmv virus at birth in hospital. Now she is four, they have given her a hearing aid with a pretty rainbow on it that she loves. She is also autistic. She loves it so much that she cries to have it on as soon as she’s done her bath. I’m trying to learn asl just in case, in case. But my eyesight is very bad so . . . But with dr. V’s help, I learn when I can and love it very much.
Dr Bill my best friend recently told me about you ( she is h.h but deaf without her hearing aids) I want to thank you for putting these videos on TH-cam, I told my best friend I’d continue practicing ASL over the summer and I feel pretty confident because of you thank you! I know there’s so much more to learn than just the basics but im willing to take that extra step :D
you re the best sing language teacher Ever ....thankyou for all the lessons
I am sitting here frantically signing "lemon" and my dog gave me a side eye and huffed and walked off. Ha ha! Fun and informative video.
I hope you never stop making videos. You are so so so amazing at what you do and your influence in the world is fantastic and so positive! I just wanted you to know you're the absolute best!!
Dr V...(as your wife) . have superstar status in my eyes...
thank you for being a powerful force in the Deaf community - signed, woman who's doing her best to learn the language and culture
I recently became deaf for unknown reasons. But this is helping me and my friends and family a lot thank you!
Non deaf, but fascinated with everything that holds another culture. I had a lot of deaf co-workers , allways wondering what are they talking about. True, I am not american. But your videos are the only that make sence. Because , like every normal thing, a conversation is between two or more people. Thank you for being also very friendly.
I just wanted to say thank you. My son is autistic and nonverbal. Watching you allowed me to teach him and my daughter. Learning from you has also allowed me to help at work during emergency situations. ❤️
Jay,
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing your comment!
Warm regards to you all!
Thanks Dr Vicars for such wonderful lessons. They are challenging. I enjoy the fact that is void of verbal communication m
I have been taking lessons from Dr. Bill Vicars off and on for several years now. I work in a major department store. Over the years, my right ear has grown progressively deaf and now without a hearing aid it is totally deaf. In the store, sometimes people can be really rude because I still can't clearly hear them; I ask them to speak up because I am hard of hearing and usually they will shout at me. But I have several Deaf customers I help and I enjoy that.
Linda Smith stay strong I’m proud of you❤️ some people just don’t understand
The story about your daughter and the vitamins was so comical. I love that you had to open up the medicine cabinet and figure out what she meant. Now I won't beat myself up when I have to ask the deaf to repeat themselves at times
Holy crap Dr. V!! When you signed grapefruit like Hannah...I freakin' laughed so hard. I'm so glad Hannah got a kick out of it and laughed as well!! You are a great teacher and make learning fun!! We, as a hearing person, need to relax when finger spelling (or at least I do) and just let it flow. I've just started to learn ASL and your videos are a huge help!! Thank you!!
Dr. Vickers is great, watch these video lessons alot. I'm a hearie and am learning a ton thanks
Love watching!!! I’m heard of hearing learning sign. Soon I’ll be Deaf so need to learn. Have 5 kids school asl need to go, time don’t have! Thanks you me teach a lot! Thanks❤️
Bill never stop
I love watching your videos. You are so funny! I have hearing loss. I had no clue. I was told I didn't pay attention to what people said. I went for a hearing test to rule it out and see about getting help with paying attention. I was tested about 4 years ago with no hearing loss what so ever. Now I have moderate-severe hearing loss. I got tired of asking people to repeat themselves...you know "What, What, What???" This is the reason for me learning ASL. I will donate as soon as I can to you. God bless you.
I was born premature and I have cochlea damage. It leaks so I've very slowly been going deaf my whole life. The doctor told me by the time I was about 30 or 40 I'd be completely deaf. I'm 27 now and I can actually tell I'm pretty bad off. so I'm learning for when I do go deaf completely. It's cheaper than surgery and I won't have to worry about my nephews messing up my hearing aid batteries anymore.
My caregiver and I are learning to sign. A little over a week ago I lost my voice due and I don't know why. I'm seeing an ENT about it this morning. Anyway, on the off chance that I'll never be able to speak again we are learning this and doing pretty well. Thank you, Bill.

Thank you SO much! If it wasn't for you I wouldn't know one of my best friends. She is deaf. I am almost fluent today and your videos have helped me so much!
omg! Dr Vicars is SOOO FUNNEH!!!! has me laughing all through this! The parts about going to the store to "TRY" the jam, then the parts about her fingerspelling everywhere, i couldn't stop laughing!
Well I can say I am grateful that I was able to be Enlighten about American Sign Language I am actually taking about history backup on sign language it is a Great world to be in and I love doing sign language so I'm going to study this video and start to upgrade my American Sign Language
Hannah is me when I was learning sign language. It is kind of refreshing.
Absolutely adore these videos. Probably sounds really weird but I was first fascinated by sign language when we learned the ASL alphabet in the third grade and watched The Miracle Worker (the one with Melissa Gilbert and Patty Duke). I was desperate to learn but that was the early 90's, I didn't know anyone who actually used ASL, and had no idea where to find more. I scoured the public library and repeatedly took out the one book and signing that they had for kids but that was as far as I got. Came across your videos after my interest was rekindled by the movie "A Quiet Place" and it has been so incredible and wonderful to slowly piece together little bits of language and understanding. Thank you so much for this. At present, I have nothing in my bank account. I wish that was an exaggeration. But when I finally have some sort of financial stability back in my life, I'll gladly and eagerly send some your way.
When I was in grade 6 and my good friend Sheila Bezan was too. We were at St. Paul’s Lutheran school in San Francisco. We had choir practise in the choir loft and we two were s o naughty that we were set on opposite sides of the loft. We got an encyclopaedia and Learned the asl alphabet. We would talk away thru’ the singing and sometimes co-ordinate to leave by crawling out. I wanted to learn asl ever since.
I Love the JOY in this one particulary ;) I am thankful for You, Bill ;) God bless You ;)
Dr. Bill, thank you so much! I have been learning so much from you! Especially when I am not feeling well enough to go to my local ASL class, and the medical signs, food signs, ok all the signs really help me a lot! Your videos are so helpful, thank you thank you thank you!!!!! My only question is in the title you put "salad" but now I can't remember for sure if "salad" was in there, but now I want to know what salad is, lol. I am hearing, trying to learn so I can better communicate with my best friend's husband and his whole family and friends. I asked my best friend (who is an interpreter and half her family is deaf) about "berry" being the same sign as "cherry" on your pinky but she said she had never seen that and wasn't sure about it, and better to finger spell it out instead. But law of primacy, me learning from you here, I think I will always want to sign berry this way that you've shown. My fingerspelling gets all "tongue tied" and even though I KNOW how to spell a word, I am trying to go so fast, I often fumble my finger spelling, despite loads of practice. *sigh*
You will get there it takes practice 👍🏾
Good one Dr. Bill ... she is too much funny during lesson and you too try your best to laugh her ... i enjoyed this lesson too ... thanks for making such wonderful and lesson able stuff for us
im loving the melon joke that went over her head haha that was adorable!!!
These videos are literally so amazing. You are the best teacher ever. Do you do online classes?
Yes, ASLUniversity (www.Lifeprint.com) offers online courses. See:
www.lifeprint.com/asl101/pages-layout/registration.htm
Bill Vicars is an awesome dude!
Omg. You are so funny! I had carpal tunnel surgery somewhere in the midst of taking ASL classes a million years ago. Fingerspelling is a little hard for me to begin with...
Also, my teacher said I had to use my other hand in the meantime. We had to learn to do whatever we had to do to sign.
I miss those classes so much.
I can't thank enuf.... the more I watch...the more I want to learn..u are amazing ty!,, a thousand times over,,,
i'm a hearing person learning asl and Bill just has me cracking up!
Excellent knowledge American sign language good bill
39:18 So true!!! Words to live by
I love your videos...I do not get a chance to use ASL except in class so it's a good refresher. I'm in Utah...taking classes at Weber State.
Many, many years ago -- I taught ASL at Weber State.
I really enjoy your videos. :O)
Wish more had cc so we can see what your saying the entire time. But I'm still glad I'm learning with you
soy in Colombia in Barranquilla. very good like sign ;)
Your videos help me a lot
But I need you to do a video on the alphabet in sign language
th-cam.com/video/va1aAXpVr2w/w-d-xo.html
Thanks
I have watched this video several times and laughed all through it. Love the lesson, the game, the conversation. The student is so cute. Great video! *kissfist*
Thanks Suzanne!
For those of you reading her comment, "kissfist" is a label (or one of several labels) for a sign in which you literally kiss your fist. It translates to: "Love it!" See:
th-cam.com/video/D4n4OkT_Ft4/w-d-xo.html
I was always curious about how to sign yogurt. I've seen people dip a Y hand into a "cup" haha. For frozen yogurt (which is really popular in new York) me and my Deaf friend just refer to it as "ice cream" but we know we are talking about frozen yogurt. I guess its like an unbrella term. I wonder if its the same for coffee drinks like latte, cappucino, espresso, macchiato. Maybe we would fingerspell it or just sign "coffee" but describe what the drink tastes like.
im learning asl because very interested in a deaf man, deaf in my family, and slowly losing my hearing. i haven't looked at this video yet but will be. my sister said I need one on all foods, ways of cooking them and kitchen signs. will this be what I need Bill? ty

I absolutely love that "cats up" is not a jokey sign. I wonder if the version of "micro wave" (wiggling pinky finger) is going to be considered seriously next.
witness is eyeproof. so clever
I have seen the Yogurt sign with the Y handshape dipping into the opposite hand like a spoon, Thank you for pointing out that Yogurt is fingerspelled.
Elizabeth,
I've been tracking that (eat from a cup:
th-cam.com/video/L19gg5zK9V8/w-d-xo.html ) version of the sign for "yogurt" and it is becoming more and more popular. (There was a time, less than a decade ago, when any non-spelled version of "yogurt" was considered Signed English -- I kid you not. Then Yogurt Shops popped up all over the place and yogurt became popular and the community started discussing yogurt more). I'm getting to the point where I'm thinking that the eat from a cup version is about as popular as the spelled version or even more so! Interpreters should definitely know that version in case they see it being used by a client.
Plus, get this, the other day Bee (my wife) used the eat-from-cup version of "yogurt" as we were discussing going out for yogurt.
So if you feel like using that eat-from-the-cup version go for it!
the sign for melon is so ironic. love it
Love your channel. My problem is sometimes interpreting what you sign. How can I be sure I'd interpret someone correctly if I can't interpret to myself quickly enough? PS...some of your expressions are priceless! Just subscribed & donated...great work
Kaye,
Thank you! As far as how you can "be sure" that you can interpret someone correctly -- there are actual "Interpreter Preparation Programs" at degree granting colleges. There are also interpreter certifications for which you must pass strict and challenging tests. So, the answer to "how can you be sure" -- is for you to go through all of my videos to develop a strong foundation of receptive signing skills, invest many hundreds of hours hanging out with Deaf people, participate in an IPP, and then become certified.
Even "certified" interpreters however can't be 100% sure that they "got the right message." In high-stakes situations it is common to bring in a second Hearing interpreter and sometimes a Deaf person who specializes in interpreting (to assist the Hearing interpreter). Such specialists are physically Deaf, have native or near-native signing skills, and training or experience understanding a wide variety of signing styles. If they have certification we call them Certified Deaf Interpreters (CDI's).
Dr. Bill

I'm excited for this video
I love your lessons. So much value. Everyone has to notice the lack of male students. I'm willing to volunteer, and am open to being made fun of.
Oh hey, no need to wait for a spot on the show -- I can start with the "making fun of" process from a distance: You masochistic glutton for punishment you.
Heh.
(Warm regards and best wishes).
i love your channel
Can berry be signed with either the pointer finger or pinky on the left hand? I see both on the different videos.
Yes. You might see "berry" done with either the pinkie or the index finger.
My recommendation would be to use the index finger as your preferred sign HOWEVER I've noticed that over the years I'm seeing more and more people spell it! This might be due to the influence of one handed signing while holding a phone.
Also it depends on individual circumstances. For example blueberry will do a one-movement version of blue and the segue into the spelling of "berry."
The index finger version tends to default to "strawberry" or just "berry" out of context (thus you need context).
Strawberry has four or five other signs as well.
Lately / these days --I don't recommend the pinkie version of berry. You should recognize it if you see it. Then use the pinkie version for "cherry." (Cherry however has other versions as well -- but the pinkie version is fairly well recognized.)
hi! I'm very happy of learning the sing language of you but I'm very in english me speak french and I want to perfect my english and sing language have better perfect. thanks
I like how she totally missed the joke at 12:45 hahahahaha
(It's because he's deaf and can't hear the melon! I missed that joke on my first viewing too! :P)
I loved that . It reminded me of how sometimes the group from avatar would forget that toph was blind.
Same hearing people talking accents and Deaf has signing ASL accents. Right? All part countries signs different. We just learning as we chat along.
Most Deaf have better peripheral vision than Hearing people have. In general, Deaf drivers have fewer accidents than Hearing drivers.
Also, "horn honking" is generally less about "safety" and more about people expressing their displeasure with others or telling the person in front of them to get moving since the light has turned green. (Which isn't a matter of safety but rather of expediting traffic flow).
My initial reaction to the beginning was thinking that there was something wrong with my headphones...
Then it dawned on me... -___-"
Time for coffee, i think!
This is the best
Are you able to put captions on your videos
Hello Dr vicars
Thank you for your videos.
I hope you see my message.
I am deaf, hh . Grew up in Europe and moved to the US some years ago. I read lips very well but since the pandemic started is has been quite traumatic because I can’t read lips, specially in medical facilities. Which unfortunately, I need almost daily. I have been looking for a place to learn asl in Miami Dade / Broward county in Florida and still did not find a place. Do you teach ASL privately?
Thanks

Dr. Bill, do you have to have a webcam on your computer, for online classes that you have?
My brother is deaf and I noticed how much some of the signs have changed your a great teacher and Happy to have learned the newer sign..i think your GREAT!!!!
Man I such at finger spelling :( I am so slow. Need to learn this stuff because I am also getting really hard of hearing especially in one side :( Scary stuff.
How's your finger spelling now?
how is it now 3 years later
Fun!
me encante este pr9grama sobre aprender ASL pero fuera mejor si estubiera en sub español
Hello, I'm home schooler in 9th grade, and I use ASLU on my computer and was wondering if there was any way I could get college credit for it? I recently discovered I couldn't find a class that fit my pace and decided to teach myself, which led to this situation. Any advice would be wonderful, Thank you :)

Also see: lifeprint.com/asl101/index.htm
Great thank you!!
are you living in Alberta,canada
14:04 Bill, I'll donate 20 dollars for the audio track, just to hear this laugh.
I started watching this particular video because the "cover" for it on TH-cam is of her laughing. I'd love to hear this laugh as well. :)
Her finger spelling is like mine when I first started... trying to go faster than my skill ... it will come..Fingerspelling “mumbling”
She is literally me "oh god no stop thats too fast"
What is name's her? How many old her?
at 2:51 what is "Mikker?"
OH MIRROR! So sorry, not MIKKER. I slowed the video down and watched him sign it several times. It's only when I watch the student that I understood.
What was the thing with the two W's against the mouth at the very beginning of video?
That is a joke sign for "WOW!"
It uses the mouth as the "O" of the word "wow."
11:55 what's the difference between that sign for strawberry versus cannabis?
TJ,
Great question!
The noun version of the sign for cannabis taps the lips twice (using the tip of the F-handshape). The verb form holds the tip up to the lips and literally draws a breath (to mean "inhale cannabis."
Strawberry has many versions but the particular version being discussed is a compound of "red" and "stick a small item into your mouth." that has mutated (evolved) over the years). The movement does a very quick downward flick of the index finger pad at the lips followed by bringing the tip of the F-handshape to or near the lips.
How do you sign "Spread" as in "Spread butter on toast" ?
Is there a sign for that?

I'm trying to keep up, but when you speed the video up it's hard. You can tell when the girls hair moves that its faster
I assure you that I have done nothing on "my end" to speed up the video. The basic fact is--I have no one to impress. There is no reason for me to speed up any of these videos. The videos are intended for beginners. Another reason for them not being sped up is that it would literally take effort for me to do so and I'd rather invest my effort in creating more videos than waste it speeding up an existing video (for no reason). Note that this video plays for 40 minutes and 30 seconds. That coincidences with the original length of my upload. So what I think you may be seeing is your local device's buffer playing catch-up on occasion. If you watch the video from a standard browser you'll have the option (via the little gear cog settings icon) to slow down the video. You might want to try that. Or try starting the video and letting it play all the way through while you go work on some project then come back and RE-play the video to watch it (thus it will likely be totally downloaded and sitting in your internet cache and not need buffering).. Again though any "speed ups" you may be seeing are not part of my upload process.
you can set your youtube slower speed setting :-D
Haha fun very nice good
Is he hearing?
I am Deaf. Technically I'm in the "Deaf/hh" (hard of hearing) spectrum.

I’m sad no one signed DRAGON+FRUIT 🤣
Tip: Consider asking Belinda to ask the Singapore Sign Language (SgSL) Facebook group how to sign "dragonfruit." Or do it yourself. Or check some of the Asian signing resources.
Might help to turn off the auto-focus.
Sure thing. Got a time machine?
@@sign-language Yes, but it only goes forward.
LOL!
My time machine is that same way!
And it feels like it is going forward faster and faster as the years go by!
I would LOVE to take your class - (or your wife's) ... signed, girl in her 40's LOL
Oh hey, indeed -- Bee is an awesome instructor.
Hii
at 38:56 what does that sign mean please?
Frozen (we were talking about frozen yogurt).
@@sign-language thanks a lot! i really really like your channel, very informative, also you are so goddamn hilarious xD
beatiful girl, name instagram?
he signed "sugar free" which should be "sugar none" in signing
I encourage you to not be duped by that myth.
Also don’t confuse how something is signed versus how something is explained.
In real life ASL usage we often sign “sugar free” using the signs “sugar” + “free” -- and then if someone doesn’t understand what that means we can expand or explain it by signing “sugar none.”
You don’t have to take my word (or sign) for it. Instead see this example at the 22 minutes and 52 seconds mark of this video in which a Deaf Dentist, Joe Samona, signs the phrase “sugar free” using the signs “sugar” + “free”

Or see the 7 seconds mark of this video in which we see Tailina Contreras signing “sugar free” using the signs “sugar” + “free” th-cam.com/video/_bOYUyWqXw4/w-d-xo.html
When I was in High School, my ASL teacher showed us a sign for yogurt. She did a Y handshape on her palm and moved it back and forth. Is that correct, or just a regional thing, perhaps?
Additionally, I was taught "pumpkin" as "orange melon". Same with others, such as " squash" is "yellow melon".
See: lifeprint.com/asl101/pages-signs/y/yogurt.htm
Yogurt has a lot of versions.
Pumpkin is the default (low context) interpretation of thumping the back of the non-dominant hand -- so adding the "orange" sign is typically (but not always) a waste of time.
@@sign-language That makes sense, thank you very much. Your videos are very helpful! 😁
