Hi! I think you're maybe adding in to many words when switching the structure from english to BSL? e.g. when translating 'what do you want to eat' into BSL I'm likely to sign 'you eat what' or if you're asking what the preferred food is I'd sign 'you like eat what'. I would be unsure what the correct structure would be for 'do you like to eat fish' but I'd sign 'you like fish eat?' I'd always rely on positive and negative indications from the person I'm chatting with, like nods/head shakes and facial expression. Does this help? If anyone can explain for easily I would be interested to read! Thanks

Hey, my name is Niamh and I've been trying to learn BSL for a few years now. I really need help with expanding my vocabulary, recognising sign and using the correct sentence structure. I hope I can find help on this website!
