Do U Know ASL If Yes What The Best Way For A Beginner To Learn And Is Asl The First One Should I Start

Do u know ASL if yes what the best way for a beginner to learn and is asl the first one should i start with even if im not an American, if no i wasn't here and ty anyway

I'd say I'm pretty proficient as I'm taking ASL college classes in the fall, but take this with a grain of salt because everyone is different!! It's completely up to you whether you want to learn American Sign or another country's sign language or even both!! Just start with one and take it slow :) What really got me started is learning how to fingerspell, count, and sign basic words and phrases. You can do this online or take an irl class (BE VERY CAREFUL IF YOU LEARN ONLINE AND MAKE SURE YOUR SOURCES ARE CREDIBLE. My favorite is Bill Vicars on youtube and handspeak.com cus we use him as examples in my irl classes!! Also note that if someone is signing a word and it's different from what you learned, signs are very regional so they might have small differences based on the state or area, dont worry too much about it though, the deaf community is SO understanding and kind when it comes to learning.) I also recommend investing in a book because I find it so engaging and fun to just read it and practice the signs regularly. LASTLY MAKE SURE YOURE CONSUMING ALOT OF MEDIA FROM THE DEAF COMMUNITY like movies, books, and other things!! because it's not just a language, it's a culture and it has its own norms and things like that so not only will it help you learn the language, but you'll know how to manage in the deaf world without being insensitive!! Hope this helps, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask, and I'll bring it up with my instructor if you'd like!! :)

Nothing keeps me alive like a 5 book series with a group of misfits who have their own backstories and trauma and souls and would throw themselves in front of a train to protect each other.

I'm on my deathbed guys I NEED MORE.

"You have to become comfortable with the fact that most people who enjoy your fic will never bother to kudos or comment on it."

Shockingly, I am comfortable with this fact. Lack of kudos or comments doesn't bother me.

That doesn't mean it shouldn't change.

If you enjoy a fic, leave a kudos or a comment.

I've been writing this story with an original world about a group of teens who had been given up by their parents to the government for unethical experiments, and they're basically trying to survive these sets of experiments. (They don't know where they are, what's going on, or who they are) I'm still thinking about it, but you guys think it would be something you'd read?
