Deaf people have a better understanding of things like classifiers, signer’s perspective, and how facial expressions contribute to grammar, which results in a more immersive interpretation. Hearing people or very beginning signers tend to think interpreting is just turning every English word into a sign but in reality it’s so much more than that!!
I m hard of hearing since birth and at 28 yo am almost totally deaf and cant wear hearing aids due to how progressed my chronic otitis media is. (Its fine I prefer my quiet world lol) im watching how Deaf people sign and trying to mimic that. Ive taken two asl courses on skillshare and the rest is from Bill vicars, tiktok lives of Deaf people talking with voice off, and my interpreters over the years. (Sign pse , learned as an adult. Grew up knowing i was deaf but with no access to hearing aids (even when I could wear them before it progressed this bad) nor the deaf community or asl. My kids are codas and its sign language in my house as a form of communication. Your vids are very inspiring. ❤)
Why are some ppl being kinda rude. The 'hearing' is actually trying and is clearly proud of herself. She's obvi not gonna be like the most experienced person who did great btw. So don't discourage her
I am hearing and i've been learning ASL for a couple of years and I can tell you the hearing girl here signs way better than i've been able to. I'm still so stiff
I'm sorry but why does the difference matter, the hearing girl just looks happy she learned how to sign this song, while the deaf side is just doing it with more sadness and emotion, why does it matter??
One of my profs once worked at a school for the deaf. She has a very strong way of speaking, she said her students got scared of her at first because the interpretor was signing her as if she was mad to get her tone across 😂

I mean
At least she tried💔
Is that asl or bsl
what is the hearing girls page? she looks very happy!
deaf is right sign as well to movement. Hearing is rushing signs and wrong way.
My best friend millia got hearing aids for the first time 3 months ago and said she liked the. Beat of the song when she signed it better.

Hearing person looks like she’s talking rather than signing a song
This performance is really helpful I did not expect it to be this good.
The facial expressions in ASL is similar to the emphasis and tone in spoken languages. It is SO important to get it right.
i watched this vidoe three times.
the first two times i read ‘deaf’ as ‘dad.’
the third time i relized it wasnt ‘dad’😭
How did you see the screen if you're deaf?
Why is everyone acting like she’s hating 😭😭 she’s just COMPARING
For a split sec i thought the girl in the left was the fl from "when the phone rings"

Difference between a language and an exaggeration
I was taught asl by a deaf friend and deaf teacher
The one on the hearing side looks cool

isnt the hearng girl signing PSE?
the hearing girl's palm orientation is confusing me
The one with hearing goes with the beat. Obviously

IM LITERALLY LISTENING TO THAT SONG RN

the hearing person is signing the words as they hear them, the deaf person is signing them to the rythm they've been told it goes in
This performance is amazing I will come back to watch it again.
