Another Language ♥

Recommended Posts

My name is Miriam - no surprises there & I learnt basic BSL many years ago, but never had anyone to converse with since.

I am EXTREMELY rusty with it now.  But every now & again, I surprise myself when little bits poke out through the cobwebs of my brain, when I am in social situations.,

For the last 4½ years I have volunteered at a local open-air museum & find that I am coming into contact with sign-world more & more. So, as I was raised with 'ignorance is no excuse' ♥, I decided to give my butt a severe kick & 're-learn' myself.

I originally learned basic BSL because I had already learned basic Spanish & basic German, so why not a third language :)

So here I am &, if it's okay with you, I would like to just meander around the forum for a few days, just to find my way around & familiarise myself with sign again?

 

ps - I can't find a sign which portrays the word 'basic' - as in 'basic sign language'

I also can't get the finger-spell challenge to work - it accepts my name entry, but won't allow 'GO' to be selected.

    • Hello, My name's Lucy and I used to be a learning support assistant to young adults with special educational needs. I used to sign to some of the students using Makaton, basic BSL and Signalong. I achieved a certificate in Signalong but would like to learn BSL to a high standard. I have now started a new job so it's hard to practice it with others. I'm based in Manchester.
    • Hey I'm DJ!  I'm very new to BSL but it is something I'm having a great time learning and would love to be able to practice in real life (I don't have anyone in my life that knows or uses BSL). I'm in Hungerford but happy to travel in the areas in and around Swindon/Newbury frequently.  Feel free to chat with me if you might be interested! 
    • Hi, I’m Donna-Louise I’m currently studying my BSL level 6 and would love to meet someone on a regular basis (face to face if possible - I live in Wiltshire but willing to travel) to keep up the flow of Signing and conversations. Thank you

    • Hi everyone. Name me what, Jeff. I've been basic signing for about 10 years now after getting a basic lesson from the company that I used to work for. My aim now, is to become fully competent within BSL and gain a qualification, and then look for any kind of employment that relates to BSL.
