@castrosux94 this is the Canadian version where we say 'zed' and not 'zee' I made an American version that says 'zee'. We are taught from the British English system where they say 'zed' for the letter Z
@castrosux94 they pronounce it like that in other countries like Britain and India and more I think. It is funny for us when we sing the regular ABC song and sing zed at the end LOL. That's why I wanted to create this version as well. Many schools in Canada use this song because it does use zed. :-)
hi, im in college and have a task to teach myself something new, i decided i'd like to learn the alphabet in sign language jst wondering does it take long or much gettin use too ? thanks
Yes :-) ASL is used in North American. We have some signs that are different (these vary region by region) but we do use ASL in most of Canada (LSQ in Quebec).
Wow, swedish and american sign language is really different. Your B is our D and your C is our S. Too bad sign language isnt more international. Ive been dying to sign with some of my american deaf friends but we just end up confused :)
Yes, sign languages can be very different around the world! BSL (British sign language) is really different from ours as well. But I guess it is the same as any spoken language, they are all different around the world :-)
I thought we are presently creating an international sign language. Well I was in a program about a year ago and one of instructors said that is the goal in order to mesh all the language barriars and make it more universal. If its in the making I think its a splendid idea.
I imagine there is varying opinions on this. Yes it would be nice but it would also be nice if the whole world spoke the same language. However, part of the beauty of each different culture is the language. This is the same with sign languages around the world. I know my deaf friends enjoy learning new signed languages when they travel. It is part of what makes people unique. However, it certainly would make life easier :-)
wonder, my baby will really enjoy this. ill record it and ill put it on my tv so he and she can enjoy the song and learn the meanings while singing, thanks again
This is wonderful, thank you for posting this. We've been looking for a great phonics song and now we've found it!! I also love that it teaches the letters in sign, what a great idea.
are the canadian signs different than the american signs? i don't see them

@castrosux94 I thought the same as I heard the American version. In Europe we learn it the British Way. We are told to say "zed".
Funny thing about that. (:

Hey I'm learning signlanguage as well.
But in Germany though, DGS it's called. The thing is the alphabet is the same. Same thing how cool ist that!
I always wanted to learn since I saw a movie where they signed. So I drive 40 mins every week to learn it and I love it!

I'm german and want to start the sign language and its funny but the german finger alphabet is nearly the same only the T is a bit different.
How is that about the other signs like Cat, Dog, milk and so on? Its quite likely to be the same too isn't it?
