Hi Sophie and Ruth. I got my beginners certificate a few weeks ago - it really has opened up a whole new world for me. I currently work in IT for a large company in Birmingham and I am now looking for ways to connect sign language and IT to make it even more inclusive.

Good morning all. I can do an hour on Saturday (I told the wife she can play on my Nintendo Switch during this time 😛 ).

What time(s) work best for you? I can also host using my work Webex account so will just need email addresses for all those that would like to join.

You are correct about context. Also remember that along with the sign you would mouth the words/meanings where possible.

Good shout Tals . So it would look something like this -

No official sign for midwife but you could try the following -

Hello mate. Try speaking to some of the charities - my first port of call would probably be National Deaf Childrens Society (NDCS) and then go from there.

Just tried recording a video for you but it wont upload it........

Enjoy!

C'mon folks - get talking! Been away for the last couple of days so noticed quite a few new people joining the forum. Lets help each other out  

I think its something like this -

Think Ive got this. Ill do some practice sessions before putting up a final video  

This is awesome! BSL bringing together like-minded people. Welcome!

Nothing in the BSL dictionary that I could find. No sign for "medic" either. Try associations in which case something like this - Ambulance + Doctor which might look like -

PS. Sorry for background noise.

Hi mate only have my work laptop and we’re not allowed to install zoom onto them. Let me see if I can use my work webex account to set something up. I’ll have to ask permission first so bear with please.

Okies so amongst doing work and looking after a 6 year old daughter whos intelligence is waaaay beyond mine I have translated the lyrics to what I think would be a best fit. Let me know your thoughts (first verse left out as already signed it), translation into sign in bold -

Hi Vicky, I joined the forum last week. I believe there are some members who are of a similar age to your daughter so hopefully someone will reach out to you, in the meantime any other questions you have please feel free to ask :).

Hi both, i think a good way to drum up conversation on this site is if we welcome new joiners each time they introduce themselves. I love this forum and so glad that I found it. Lets keep things moving

Thats 100% correct. This is the bit I was looking for TOPIC > SUBJECT > QUESTION but I couldnt find it within the lessons so ended up getting the wrong structure from google 🤦‍♂️
