- The story behind me learning BSL
  
  By seobyLeo · Posted 6 hours ago
  
  Once upon a time, in the digital age of 2023, I found myself embarking on a journey that I never could have predicted.

  Hi! I’m Emily, I was a CoDa (child of deaf adult) between ages of 5 and 12 as we used BSL at home to communicate with my stepdad who was deaf. I recently watched a show with a deaf actress in who used ASL and it reminded me that I know quite a lot of basic BSL but I want to brush up on my skills so I can effectively communicate with any BSL users I come across! It’s also a fun hobby ☺️ <img src='data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%201024%201024%22%20style%3D%22background%3A%2388c462%22%3E%3Cg%3E%3Ctext%20text-anchor%3D%22middle%22%20dy%3D%22.35em%22%20x%3D%22512%22%20y%3D%22512%22%20fill%3D%22%23ffffff%22%20font-size%3D%22700%22%20font-family%3D%22-apple-system%2C%20BlinkMacSystemFont%2C%20Roboto%2C%20Helvetica%2C%20Arial%2C%20sans-serif%22%3EE%3C%2Ftext%3E%3C%2Fg%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E' alt='Emmiebun' loading="lazy"> </a> </div> <div class='ipsDataItem_main'> <div class='ipsType_break ipsContained'><a href="https://www.signlanguageforum.com/bsl/topic/5887-hi-introducing-myself/?do=findComment&comment=8208" title='View the topic Hi! :) introducing myself' class='ipsType_medium ipsTruncate ipsTruncate_line'>Hi! :) introducing myself</a></div> <p class='ipsType_reset ipsType_light ipsType_medium ipsType_blendLinks'>By <a href='https://www.signlanguageforum.com/bsl/profile/11374-emmiebun/' rel="nofollow" data-ipsHover data-ipsHover-width='370' data-ipsHover-target='https://www.signlanguageforum.com/bsl/profile/11374-emmiebun/?do=hovercard&referrer=https%253A%252F%252Fwww.signlanguageforum.com%252Fbsl%252Ftopic%252F2055-introducing-myself%252F' title="Go to Emmiebun's profile" class="ipsType_break">Emmiebun</a> · <a href='https://www.signlanguageforum.com/bsl/topic/5887-hi-introducing-myself/?do=findComment&comment=8208' class='ipsType_blendLinks'>Posted <time datetime='2023-09-27T13:05:33Z' title='27/09/23 13:05 ' data-short='Sep 27'>September 27</time></a></p> <div class='ipsType_medium ipsType_textBlock ipsType_richText ipsType_break ipsContained ipsSpacer_top ipsSpacer_half' data-ipsTruncate data-ipsTruncate-type='hide' data-ipsTruncate-size='230px' data-ipsTruncate-watch='false'> Hi im Emily!
