Hi there, excited to be here!

Hello, my name is Lyall but my friends call me Lye (My sign name is Caustic because of this haha). I'm a 19 year old dude currently taking a course in BSL which is something that means a lot to me and I've wanted to learn since I was a little kid. I also struggle processing speach, my volume is fine my brain just strugles to hear some sounds, especially constonants.

I've known fingerspelling and 1-10 for as long as I can remeber, I also know the basics and a few other random signs I picked up in school as I went to one for HoH and visually impared kids for a short time. I've always been passionate about inclusivity and communication, I've just never had the money to do a certification course until now and would just learn a few new words using a sign dictionary when I found the time and remebered. 

I'm really ecited to be here, learn as much as I can, and get my certification!

(Tried my best with the video, please let me know if I made any mistakes!! It was really difficult trying to do it flipped haha)

    • You're right—British Sign Language (BSL) does not include a standardised set of medical terms, which can make it challenging for healthcare professionals to communicate specific medical concepts directly with Deaf patients. However, many BSL users and healthcare providers work together to establish common signs for medical terminology, and interpreters can often bridge the gap in medical settings. If you're learning BSL for healthcare or a related field, it's important to either collaborate

    • Hi, I am now studying BSL level 2, just one more exam to go for this year!! Is there anyone else from Scotland who would be willing to have basic conversations by video? I am aware of the regional differences in signs and would like to expand my knowledge from around Scotland.  Thank you, SJ
