Thank you for continuing to share so I may learn as my hearing in my one good ear declines.

Very helpful video but too fast and hard to see each sign so I'll be rewatching many times. I'm always afraid I'll use the wrong sign but hopefully I'm growing in my ASL enough that any deaf/HOH person can understand me good enough. I'd love to see some more of these homonym videos please. 🤟

I’ve been learning Japanese for a few years but I’ve made much better progress with Portuguese and ASL recently because I could never figure out how to “think” in Japanese. It’s a game changer.

Thank you for these videos! I have auditory processing disorder and this helps me communicate when I can't talk or need clarifications. The other common one I could think of are "Two" and "Too" or "To." Also "Hot" like the temperature and "Hot" as in flirting.

I would LOVE to see a sign video about disability or mental health- I’m a Deaf person and a cane user. I’m also autistic and have PTSD and OCD. A video about disability signs, adaptive sign language, or mental health signs would be so helpful!

I really enjoyed this video and I'll be watching it many times. I agree with someone above that it goes very fast and on my phone not easy to see the hand form for each sign. I am learning so much through your videos. Thank you so much for sharing them.
