6 months agoIm deaf and it’s real weird seeing you get downvoted for saying you can’t translate english to sign language verbatim, cause it’s true. Sign language is a lot more like broken english combined with body language, you don’t word for word translate english to sign, there’s too many words for starters, and lost in translation is a thing that exists.
Deaf people that can’t hear at all, still read and write, please stop speaking for a lifestyle you don’t know anything about.
