Hi! My name is Miri and I'm a journalist and baker living in Stirling, Scotland. I'm learning BSL because I feel like its a skill I should have, considering how many people use it as their first language. I wouldn't want to miss out on a friendship with someone! That's it really. If anyone can help me sign the following things more easily than finger spelling that would be amazing!

Hi Miri! My name is Matilda ☺️ I think your reason for learning BSL is really lovely :) I have always wanted to learn to BSL (and now I finally am), but hadn't even considered the possibility that I could be missing out on friendships!

      Hello - New learner here

      Hi - new learner ( later in life perhaps - I’m 50+ ) have done about 3 months BSL with an awesome teacher and am looking for practice buddies - i find the dexterity and speed of fluent speakers amazing - I’m really really slow 😂 - the key I’m told is practice practice and more practice - I’d love to have a video chat buddy to practice with. Please drop me a line if interested. I’m a company owner in the technology / social value / climate sector.

      Why I decided to learn BSL

      By Tarnya · Posted

      Hey, I work as an Early years practitioner for the NHS where we use Makaton within our setting. Although I am enjoying learning and using Makaton I decided I wanted to try learning BSL. Although I am only about to start lesson 5, so far so good with the BSL, in fact I love it! and now we have a child who has a hearing difficulty. I am hard on myself ensuring I am very sure of the signs I have learnt before using them at work. I often recap previous lessons to confirm my retainment and set myself (what I call) a remember challenge for words that are challenging for me to memorise which I have found useful. I am already finding that I can read some language signed on television and feel very excited / proud. This leaves me thinking, within inclusion, why is BSL not on the curriculum for children to learn at school?

      Great this is very appreciable. I personally believe learning anything new in life is our achievement, so whether we use this language or not, we should give a try learning BSL.   _____________________________________ Anthony Constantinou

      Does this sign mean anything in BSL?

      By TriAngelsHolisticHealing · Posted

      A friend of mine is a Clairvoyant and she had this person appear when she was with clients.  He seems to be using a form of sign language, but I have no idea what it is. Can anyone clarify what the hands are saying? Your help is greatly appreciated. Penelope

      Okay cool!  Discord is like an app that is really good for "group chats". You can use it on a computer too. I will message you the invite link to the server (think of a server like a group chat) I have made. It will guide you to make a discord account and then join you into the server! Slow is okay
