Very nice! Definitely liked your personal touches, the attitude and facial expressions. First time seeing this story. Great practice for people trying to work on role-shifting and keeping track of everyone...while I was watching I was like, OK..now who's next? heh, cool beans.

Oh thank you! :)

That was very entertaining! Thanks for posting this. -- I just finished my first semester of ASL.

There's nothing wrong with PSE, it's better to sign what you feel most natural and comfortable with so it flows. If you're forcing something that isn't natural for you, other people are likely to notice and it just makes it harder on yourself. Go with what's natural and feels most comfortable!

I see. I thought you meant SEE I (which I rarely see) but I have seen a lot of people sign PSE and you make a very good point as to the reason it is so popular. I try my best to sign pure ASL but I tend to "slip up" now and then and revert to PSE because it sometimes feels more natural :).

[cantareadio]

I don't mean SEE, I mean PSE. They're using ASL signs, but in English word order. That's more common now (it seems.)

Think about it. Deaf people don't take ASL (usually), but they have to take 12 years of English in school. So they're more exposed to English grammar than ASL grammar. My projection of why.

Aww well thank you so much! When I had to do this story, I used a butter knife to cut the fox tail off and I sawed it off slowly lol

Beautiful!

I'm in ASL two at my high school and we're doing this same project.

It really helped to see a fluent signer sign it and so much expression really made the story so much more interesting!

Great job

I find it interesting that you were exposed more to english style signing when you interacted in the Deaf community. My first Deaf friend did sign mostly SEE (singing exact english, which uses words such as "is" and "are") but when I finally got the courage up to involve myself in the Deaf community, I noticed most signed pure ASL. I did a report on regional differences of sign language in America and was surprised how vast the differences are. maybe SEE is used more in other cities than others.
