I've just watched the 150 essential asl because most of my classmates are deaf and i want to communicate with them! I will watch this!! 😍 hope you notice me! I'm trying my best to learn ASL and your videos inspires me to become a teacher in deaf ,thank you and God bless!!

[@brunofuentes3585]

Hi! I've just met someone at work that knows how to sign. I watch your videos to learn to communicate with them. I'm not perfect, but I can maintain a conversation and get a smile out of them. Thanks for the topical videos, it makes engaging a lot easier. Keep it up!

[@n.nobraincells]

My mom died when I was four and it was really hard on me I always wanted to be like her. My grandma would tell me stories about her but the one that I always liked was how she had very hard hearing And she would you sign language to talk to deaf people and I always wanted to learn and see ever since I started watching your videos it’s helped me so much so thank you you’re very much appreciated😊❤️

[@gardeniagirl1374]

I hope you are still following this channel. I hope learning ASL helps you to cope with your mom's death. May you hear stories about her that bring you peace, and may the skill you are developing give you some confidence. I'm sending hugs of comfort.

[@crystalholestine6489]

Thanks so much for these videos!! My kiddo is non verbal and we watch these videos together and are learning to communicate with ASL and it's amazing!

[@v.e.a.h2740]

This has help me more than you can imagine (thank you🥺)

[@OKcryptids]

I have always wanted to learn a different language but never thought in a million years sign language would be it. This is the 5th video I've watched by you and I can confidently say that I have learned so much

[@BlackRoseKYT]

I love how in the end she says my costume is a cat, then signed witch hahaha

[@dogsareawomansbestfriend]

You do so good in explaining how/ why the sign is made!

[@destinypowers1146]

i agree

[@raymondlin8728]

Perfect my 2 favorite things, learning ASL and Halloween 🎃. Thank you

[@grottomatic]

I have been watching your stuff lately and find it useful since my laryngitis this summer. By the way, that boy’s idea for a costume is excellent. _Moana_ is underrated.

[@TMama68]

My grandson is almost 3, has Duchesne Muscular dystrophy and barely speaks. He goes to speech therapy twice a week but I also started teaching him ASL as much as I can. I am learning myself, so we enjoy watching your videos and learning together. ASL had become our own "special/secret language" and he has started teaching his 4yo sister some things too! A bonding experience for us both!

[@ameliadeland-zepeda976]

I was wondering what the sign for Halloween was! Now I know! Thanks! Also, the Halloween song at the end was spooky adorable!

[@kathleenmobley7333]

Slow enough I can see it, a verbal explanation of the signs, and you show the signs from two angles. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

[@pinksky2231]

Thank you so much!,your channel helped me learn how to sign, now im starting to learn more and more. Im just inspired of learning ASL i love it

[@H4L13N]

Thank you so much for your content! You guys are really helpful for me since I’m learning ASL and your teaching just sticks with me, and you guys are really good at showing the signs clearly and you guys have such a good and happy vibe! Happy Halloween!🎃

[@j.p.2493]

Thank you so much for your channel. My 6 y/o niece has Charge Syndrome and we communicate with ASL; you have taught me a lot!

[@LearnHowtoSign]

You are so welcome!

[@lovelybydecay7811]

thank you so much!!! fun ones like this really help my vocab because it reinforces stuff (like haunted + house, or blood [red + dripping]) and is really fun. thank you!! p.s. i just realized the witch sign really needs to be updated :/

[@jeannewesly1723]

Lol why the update is needed?

[@suhhjuice9627]

such a good teacher! explaining ways to remember each sign makes such a difference for me! thank you!

[@ms.zomberz7976]

Honestly get so excited when I learn a new sign! Thank you so much for posting these your amazing

[@destinypowers1146]

this is fun Meredith and including your son made it so much more fun. do you have every last holiday and all in videos? i appreciate you signing in .. since I'm still learning, idk if I say deaf grammar or context... but I appreciate you doing that. most doesn't do that, and then come across someone that is deaf and needing to sign for them their way could get confusing and frustrating for both. tho the deaf in my family very patient. so ty for always doing it that way so we learn it correctly

[@AzDesertFoxx]

[@elizabethschenk3625]

These videos are amazing and help me so much! I work in a clinic and I am learning sign to help with patient communication! Would guys ever consider doing patient/healthcare signs?

[@LearnHowtoSign]

We just had it release today! Go check it out.

[@zaftigone85]

Hi! I am new to your channel! Do you have a video on morphemes? If not, can you make one?! I struggle with remembering which ones have them and I have such a poker face!

[@LearnHowtoSign]

We don't have one on those yet but that is a great idea.

[@ratyratrat]

💀👻🎃

[@syazwaniesuju8639]

Tqsm for all the help... can i req for patient sign language..im working at clinic..

[@tineyfox32]

can you do thanksgiving signs

[@Gary-nt4hg]

Hey, I really love your videos! But I have a question. Do you know other ways to learn Sign language? Like if I was learning Spanish I would use flash cards and tape the cards on that object. You really can’t do that with sign language because it’s hands singles. Do you have any ideas on learning while going on with life? I really want know learn because I was born deaf outta both ears for 16 years, and I was not allowed in a deaf school because I have hearing aids that’s the reason why I don’t know sign and also I’m the only deaf person in my family so I can’t learn from my family. And part being deaf I have a comprehension problem mainly because I’m deaf so it’s really hard for ,e to understand things so I was wondering if you know any tips?

[@Gary-nt4hg]

Like what confuses me what do I learn? ASL, PSE, or pigeon sign language? My hearing teacher told me PSE but my family say ASL. There similar but different. So that’s what im confused on to

[@judihart9658]

🤔thinking candy apple!.😋👍😎

[@tazeensabir6074]

Do you have any online certificate course about sign language..I m willngs to learn asl.. I knows PSL

[@len-gen-darystinson9764]

Hi everyone. I was wondering does anyone know how to sign singular words? For example the sign for bones is in this video but if you were signing bone singular is it a different sign?

[@alvaromaravillas7106]

Christmas and new years sign please?

[@mariapaulaalemanforero5032]

I have a question, since Frankenstein is the one who created the monster are we signing Frankenstein or Frankenstein’s monster ?

[@ashlavigne1520]

Hello, I am from China and I am a volunteer sign language interpreter. Can I share your video to bilibili in China? This can help many of us who want to learn American Sign Language, thank you. Thank you so much for all the help.😊❤️

[@kathemorris4671]

Meredith I enjoy the song your son sang. Could you make a video showing how to sign the song. I think I know how to sign the song but am not sure I am right. I believe others would like to see it to learn how especially children. Please include your children. Happy Haunting 👻

[@ScubaCody]

I learned Halloween could also be the same as signing glasses but using middle and pointer finger instead, is this true?

[@glitching_fox9222]

I just wanted to let you know on the vidoe for the first sentence it says cat instead of witch. I really appreciate your vidoes enjoy your Halloween! :)

[@LearnHowtoSign]

Yes! We realized it after recording, but didn’t want to take away the sentence from you all in the edit! 😾🤦‍♂️

[@dice_clovers4407]

Oo

[@Kayleeorsmthn]

So if I’m signing Frankenstein am I referring to the monster?

[@ilikefattigers8136]

a dumb question even though the right hand was used to demonstrate can I use my left hand to sign instead? would there actually be a difference?

[@davidplatt8308]

No. That would be same if you are left hand or right hand anyway. 😊

[@taylamorris]

So then what's the difference between the sign for pumpkin and melon?

[@klayonekristoffer5740]

It would be so awesome if you showed pictures on the bottom of the screen so I could actually show her. My Deaf daughter can not read so I always have to find pictures.

[@aaronm6674]

You need to be captioning your videos!!

[@debbiewilkinson4277]

What is the sign for dialysis?

[@theresarosanio8654]

7:38

[@bradyheusser6104]

rite when your son Sade he like skidlse i was eating skitlse

[@meioshawilson4897]

during the sentence part of the lesson you said your custom was a cat buy you signed it was a witch confusing for beginners

[@stephennordlinger4112]

Everyone is invited to to come join my Halloweenology Facebook page!

[@SharonHickey0317]

I got confused when you said my costume is a cat but then changed it to my costume is a witch.

[@davidtian7671]

10:24 You switched from cat to witch

[@dem_bears]

Why does it have to be called American Sign Language (ASL)? I’m sure a lot of other countries use it too so why not change it & call it the Universal Sign Language (USL)

[@amaniahmad9099]

Is that boy your son?

[@Creepson_]

dont mind her saying cat and then signing witch. Great video tho

[@elizabethaguirre2592]

U said your costume was a cat then you sign that your costume was a witch you got confused.

[@LearnHowtoSign]

Ya, we didn't catch that error.

[@aeronprosek7963]

Please try to fingerspell "witch." The idea of the hooked nose caricature is an antisemitic (anti-Jewish) stereotype. It's a demonization of a semi-common feature in a lot of white Jewish people and some Jewish people of color. It's extremely offensive and "witch" is an easy one to fingerspell.

[@ShayleeAvaMansfield]

But she should be not teaching, she is NOT deaf. I am 100% deaf and I wanted to tell you guys it is wrong to learn ASL from a hearing person. She is taking advance of our sign language to be famous.

[@jennifergnann9832]

I’m hearing with a deaf child and husband. I followed this channel in the very beginning because I didn’t know better but as soon as I learned deaf culture and immersed myself in the community I learned hearing teaching isn’t ok and I’ve never followed one since. We also have a deaf mentor now and I continue to take classes from only deaf teachers. I’ve learned so much better with voice off! I’m not sure why this channel still shows up but I wish she would stop or hiring someone in the deaf community. She won’t though because I’ve commented about it before and I’m sure others have too. 🎯💯🤟
