And hard of hearing people will not always know it, but still need subtitles. So an interpreter is not the same as subtitles. Subtitles take so little time to put in, so no excuse not to have them in situations like this

      My aunt is deaf but her family was too poor to enroll her to "special school" for disable people. It was so expensive back around the 60s. So my aunt never learned about sign language. She knows alphabets in ASL from the book she bought but can't make a full sentences using ASL. But thankfully our family and even our neighborhood can read her lips well so we can still communicate. She can speak, not clearly but somehow understandable. There are a lot of deaf people in Indonesia that can't use or never heard about asl especially those who's live in the rural area. I hope Indonesian's government have more education program on ASL for those who need it. I want to be an ASL interpreter too actually

If I want I can apply to get a pass to skip lines and board the plane before everyone else. If diabetes is considered a disability without me being offended, I don’t understand what the problem with being deaf being considered a disability. My uncle is deaf and he takes advantage of it and has gotten upgrades on flights because of it.

      @awesomelyathena7147 4 ปีที่แล้ว +74

      It has evolved over time, just like spoken language has! Flip the question and ask, “Who chose the words for us to speak in English, ‘I’m good. How are you?’” Same question can be asked for Spanish, French, German, etc. All these languages evolved naturally! As for the origins of American Sign Language in particular a lot of it if from LSF (French Sign Language), and Martha’s Vineyard (an island where an overwhelming amount of the population was deaf, and everybody communicated in sign). The two sort of merged together, and over time Americans have modified signs to make them their own!

      @@andremckenzie9746 there are plenty of D/deaf and hoh people who don't sign, are still learning sign, or for whatever reason aren't good at it. many people don't have the access to proper education or are forced to use more 'normal' methods of communication, and for some D/deaf/hoh people sign language just isn't something they want or need to learn.
