Hi!  My name is Nancy, and I’m new to this site, and hoping there might be some good advice here.  I learned finger spelling in ASL as I was growing up from a school friend who was patient enough to teach me.  Recently I was looking up the meaning of the word online, and somehow I found a great online dictionary that included pronunciation, meanings, alternate spellings and the ASL finger spelling of it at the bottom.  It was phenomenal, but I cannot find it now, after multiple searches.  I know it exists...just can’t find it again, argh.  I’ve worked in health care (as a nursing assistant, and a nurse) and have found ASL invaluable...so glad I learned at least the finger spelling level.  It has been invaluable. If I could find that dictionary again, I think there is interest for a lot of people who may not have been as lucky as I was to have learned it in childhood.  That dictionary I felt also raised awareness of the need to be open to learning this level.  I wish all dictionaries were so thoughtful!  Now that I’ve searched for this particular dictionary, I sadly see that is not the case.  Has anyone got an idea about this dictionary resource?  If so, I would so appreciate a link.  Thank you so much.

    • That’s wonderful! Starting ASL for your daughter is such a meaningful way to support her communication, and it’s great that she’s already picking up signs alongside her AAC device. Learning alongside her not only strengthens your own skills but also models communication in a natural, encouraging way. Focusing on facial expressions and fluid signing will make your interactions even richer, and your example could definitely inspire other parents to explore ASL with their children. This community sounds like a great place to grow and practice together.      
    • To get the best results from Kamagra Oral Jelly, it is usually taken about 15–30 minutes before planned sexual activity. The jelly comes in a small sachet and can be consumed directly without water, making it easy to use compared to traditional tablets. For maximum effectiveness, it is recommended to take Kamagra Oral Jelly on a relatively empty stomach because heavy or fatty meals may delay its effect. Only one dose should be taken within a 24-hour period, and sexual stimulation is still required for the medicine to work properly. Many informational pharmacy platforms, including Genericvilla, also highlight the importance of following recommended dosage guidelines and consulting a healthcare professional before using ED medications.
