Unit 8 - Vocabulary - (Faces, heights, body types)

Im trying to figure out what the difference between big eyes and glasses is. Is it just that you make your eyes really big when you sign for big eyes, and with glasses you leave them normal?

PS Your videos rock. I watch them all the time. Thanks

Thanks so much! So for glasses, you're just showing the shape of the frames (no expression required) and for big eyes, you would open your eyes a bit wider to exaggerate the size of the eyes. It's also helpful to mouth the words that you're signing (this is often the distinguishing feature between 2 similar signs).

Thanks again for watching! I'm so glad they're helpful!

your videos are Very helpful. I actually missed my ASL class the other day, this part of unit 8 was the subject, and the book is absolutely useless to learn from. Thank you.
