      I made an ASL discord server. It has a teen only area and an adult area as well as sections for beginners, intermediate, advanced, and fluent as well as a mixed level and age area. I hope to see y’all there so that we learn, practice, and grow together.   https://discord.gg/CmQrzAhf

      fingerspelling game

      By SYd_ · Posted

      I just got 45! I'm getting really good I feel! I always like to find a good speed, then just read off the letters as they come up, and spell the word, then once i'm good at recognizing what letter it is, I try to pronounce the word as it comes through, I find that helps the most when it comes to learning with this game! hopefully I can get to 50 in 2 mins by the end of the week.

      Hi Raf! Nice to meet you. This is definitely the right place to learn sign, but I also heavily recommend Learn How To Sign on YouTube for the first basic beginner signs and sentences. Meredith, the host, is an excellent educator and does a great job. Good luck!

      Is this idea I had ok?

      By HD-MT · Posted

      I think something that helps deaf people to "hear" what people are saying could definitely work. I'm not super sure on this, but from what I've researched there are glasses that caption what other people are saying. I was thinking something like that could work, or another idea I had was that the gloves detect what is being said, and turns that into a series of pulses or some sort of sensory input onto the fingertips, kind of like reading braille. The problem with that idea though is that the us
