@MusicInMotion67 You are more than welcome, but like I said...know the difference now. And will post a newer version when I get the time.

[WashburnSignGuy]

@MusicInMotion67 I'm in the Sign Language Interpreting Program at Georgia Perimeter College (best program in the state). Got semantics and syntax coming out of...well my hands! (instead of ears)

But I do thank you. I also teach a few classes myself. I should really update this for my students...it would be a great resource.

@MusicInMotion67 No offense taken. And thanks. While both you and I know what SEE (or SEE 2) is, I'm willing to bet not everyone does. So thanks for sharing on my comment section.

@WashburnSignGuy I'm sorry one more thing, If I can ever get myself recorded doing it, I'll do the newer version of Amazing Grace "Amazing Grace (my chains are gone)" and get it posted on here so you can see the difference between the two.

@WashburnSignGuy and interpret for my church as well as teach a class for ASL as well. There are many rules that must be followed and it can be hard to break all those things you learned when first learning because it's all you've known but not impossible :) There are many good places online to go look at rules etc for ASL grammar and structure/syntax. If you'd like to get some just send me an email and I'll get some information out to you. Happy to help however I can. God Bless you.

@WashburnSignGuy I didn't mean anything mean by that statement. The form of sign Language you're using is called SEE sign which stands for "Signed Exact English" which is where they not only use the endings like "ing, ed, etc. They also do things like W-A-S moving towards the back of your head to show it's in the past and the term "is" none of these are ever used in true ASL but like you I too learned that first. I've known Sign Language for 37 years and ASL for ten years

@BlindLed You're welcome, smile.

@MusicInMotion67 Nice putting "smile" after that comment.

[WashburnSignGuy]

@gmgkids Thanks! That's because it's a form of signed english...unfortunately. That's what I learned first. @MusicInMotion67 is right. ASL isn't English...at all. But I'm glad you like it! Keep watching my channel and I'll eventually rerecord this video using ASL.

[WashburnSignGuy]

@MusicInMotion67 I agree. That is why I chose to change the name from "'Amazing Grace' Instructional in ASL" to Sign Language. It is clearly not ASL, and I can not wait to rerecord this video using my new knowledge of ASL.
