Lovely video, I understood you completely.

Your mum is called Sally.

You have 1 brother. He is called Martin.

You are married and your husband's name is James. He is tall with a beard and blue eyes!

One piece of advice I can give is try not to add 'what' to everything. It's known as a rhetorical question in BSL and is much better used here and there. For example, 'mum, name..' nod your head. Hope that makes sense 😃

    • Hi there. If you're still looking for a signing buddy, please send me a message as I'd be happy to help in practising some BSL.
    • that's interesting.
    • Hi guys. I'm new here too
    • Hello. I am learning sign language for my DofE award and am currently enjoying it. I am keen to learn it and personally think I am learning it quite well. There is  deaf community centre near me so after I have nailed BSL i intend on visiting and interpreting for my local park run as a volunteer
    • I am learning BSL because I want to feel more connected to the Deaf community. Even though I am deaf and use a cochlear implant, I grew up using spoken language, so I never fully learned sign language. Over time, I started to feel left out in Deaf spaces where people communicate through BSL. Learning BSL feels important to me not just for communication, but for belonging. I want to be able to express myself freely, understand others and be part of conversations without barriers. It is also important for my work, as I support people with different needs, and I want to provide more inclusive and accessible support in the future.
    • Hi everyone, My name is Devanshi and I’m currently living in Nottingham. I work as a support worker and I’m really passionate about inclusion and supporting people with different needs. I am deaf and use a cochlear implant. I was not born deaf, my speech developed as I was growing up, so I have mainly communicated using spoken language. However, over time I started to feel a bit excluded in Deaf spaces, as many people communicate through BSL and I wasn’t confident in it. That’s one of the main reasons I decided to start learning British Sign Language. I want to feel more connected to the Deaf community, communicate better and be part of conversations without feeling left out. I also hope it will help me support others better in my work and future career. I’m currently learning at a basic level, so I’m still very new — but I’m excited to learn and improve 😊 Looking forward to connecting with you all!
    • Hi! I'm Kay and i've decided to learn BSL as i have always found it interesting and find it a way to make others feel included 😁 it's also a great way to spend my evening as i am learning something new everyday!
    • Hi there. Just working my way through introto British sign language online course. Wanted to learn something useful of an evening. Elizabeth x
