@I'm just saying it's okay man. English isn't my first language either. By 'senses heightened' they meant that since they have hearing disability, people think that they can see or smell better. And GAYDAR means gay-radar. It's like being able to tell if someone is attracted to their same sex. Jessica is gay (or bi/pan I dunno, she's married to a woman though) So she's saying that she has an excellent gaydar.

I like watching movies with subtitles as a hearing person. It makes it easier to understand accents and if its loud you dont need to turn up your volume to hear.

[@redmanish]

Yep I have auditory processing issues (not deaf, but just cannot process sounds into words fast enough sometimes) and subtitles are a lifesaver. I was so happy when voiced computer games started adding subtitles in because I always felt kind of left out as a kid lol.

[@25chloe]

I can hear perfectly fine but I still always have always had the subtitles on just because it's easier to know what they are saying

[@enfysiridescent]

@@redmanish Same here! I've always been very good at understanding visual information (subtitles, for example) but auditory information... doesn't compute well. I always have subtitles on, even as a hearing person.

[@timecrayon]

same ... especially when I'm eating ... like if it's something crunchy you can't hear shit.

[@paju3244]

Same, and I use subtitles also because English is my second language, so I have to focus more if I don't use subtitles.

"Do you have to be here?" Damn I love that girl😂

[@kwpp7]

I was so confused why anyone would make that comment to a Deaf person!!

[@CometAura]

This comment section is 99% people pointing out the "mistake" in the title. Saying something to someone doesn't have to mean it's verbal, it's literally a synonym for communicate.

[@weeardguy]

There's also a big mistake in the subtitles/captions/whatever you call them KZbin provides. Suddenly at about a minute in the video, all subtitles from KZbin from the beginning re-appeared, but now over the burned in captions from the video itself. Pity.

"Do we have to have the subtitles on?" "Do we have to have the sound on?" Dead Also, BSL and ASL are so stinking different and it's fascinating.

[@jaysonpadilla9063]

Holly Dorn so when I️ saw the one woman using two hands kissing as “A” I️ was so interested. Because in ASL, “A” is a fist(like black power fist) but with the thumb on top of the fingers. Lol weird.

[@belladirisi5867]

Holly Dorn I know right! I’m learning a little ASL and I would notice simple signs suck please, are completely different

[@willoweloise6036]

Jayson Padilla the "2 hands kissing" was actually B😆 for the vowels, we point to a finger. So A is your thumb, E is your pointer finger, I is your middle finger and so on! But youre right, it is super interesting to look at the differences in sign language-i think theres more than 300 in the world?🤔

Oh maybe that's why I always liked subtitles too. I'm not deaf, but I was recently diagnosed with autism and I'm still learning about the condition and how it affects me and others around me.

[@zackgeldhof1206]

Autistic, and learning ASL has really helped me when I have trouble speaking. Sometimes I shut down and it's hard to speak, but using ASL not only helps me communicate, but can act as a form of stimming because it's giving my hands something to do so I'm not so overwhelmed.

[@jade4232]

I'm not deaf, but I love subtitles. It helps me catch things that I sometimes miss without subtitles. I also like it when they describe sound effects oddly 😂

[@buffycatnip]

my sister is hearing and uses subtitles when watching tv or netflix because sometimes she misses out when the actor is talking too quiet or speaking in a heavy accent so she doesn't have to constantly rewind to catch what the actor is saying.

[@syannasylwiaanna7468]

By German you mean like German Sign Language? I'd like to learn some of it but sign languages look so difficult because they're 3D and I'm used to kind of 1D languages/versions of languages. Spoken language is just a string of sounds following one another, written language is about letters or in line. But sign languages are just happening everywhere and they involve hands and mimics and body language. I'd love to learn some of the Deutsche Gebärdensprache though, I'm planning to go to a course in a couple of months. I'd love to be able to talk to a deaf or hard of hearing person, overstep this communication barrier without any 3rd person translator help. So far I can only read signed letters (I'm not that good in signing them yet), tell my/hia/her name and ask about yours. I wish I could learn more.

I'd love the chance to take a sign language class again. It was one of the most important languages to me because I grew up meeting a lot of deaf children and wanted so badly to be able to talk to them. I was able to take it for 2 years when I first entered high school, but wasn't able to keep learning in that environment when I moved.

[@weeardguy]

When I was in primary school there were 2 children (brother and sister, the sister being the oldest) who both could hear, but needed hearing-aides to be able to understand what people said. (this part is for everyone under 30, you have no idea how technology has advanced) His devices incorporated possibilities for the now so common loop facilities but on a very small scale. In the daily 'circle-talk' in class (maybe that's something Dutch, I don't know), the person speaking had to be wearing a heavy box with lavalier mic, which would radio the sound to him, while he was wearing a similar box but then without the mic but the cord that held the box around your neck facilitating a loop so his aides could pick up the radio and he could hear what the person speaking was saying. It was only a few years ago I realised deaf people probably don't take much joy in most videos as there are no subtitles and explanations of things going on in the video. Since then I just provide subtitles in two languages (Dutch, my native language, and English) The same I'm still looking for a way to provide audio-transcription...

about a month ago i got the confirmation that im going to be deaf by the time i hit 25(18 now). My hearing has always been fine, but this past year it has been slipping away. Its funny i always said that "id love to learn sign language". Now its pretty much a reality that i have to familiarize myself with. This video has been helpful though it took away some of the fear that i have been holding on too.

Look into a cochlear implant. Since you were born hearing, it won't be as huge of an adjustment.

Hiya! Couple of bits of advice which could help.... Check with your local council about sign language courses, Many councils do them at a great discount. Also, check out BSLZone online. They have great documentaries, tv shows etc that will help with the transition... and they're well produced and great fun to watch! Also, maybe look up your local Deaf club so you can go and meet new people. It was a bit daunting for me the first time, but you'll find some lovely people and make friends who can understand the experiences and concerns you are facing. Good luck in the future x

[@iluvzurara2]

exactly!! i watch a lot of anime and korean dramas (im american with latin american heritage and from nyc so im used to being surrounded by multiple languages) and im so used to subtitles idk why ppl are so stupid with subtitles. maybe watch something other than your native language for once. i can guarantee you though that thats a very american mentality unfortunately. sometimes ill watch a movie ive watched so many times with subtitles only to realize that ive understood a line or a lyric in a disney movie song wrong for so many years!

[@weeardguy]

@@iluvzurara2 Oh no, it happens in the Netherlands as well, trust me. I have been to friends were I would watch some movie and quickly someone would start complaining about the subtitles... But especially when characters in a movie or serie mention a brand, store or locally known commercial-slogan or whatever, you can get lost easily. I got the dvd-boxset of Friends. Well, for me, as a Dutch guy, there are so many references to local commercials, brands, stores and what not that it's hard to follow along, thus subtitles are always on. I don't care what other people think.

One thing that always amazes me with deaf people is when they can articulate really good. It takes real dedication and hard practice to articulate without hearing the sounds coming out of your mouth.

Always challenging themselves and succeeding in what they do, I could never...

Can’t I just be either deaf in both ears or not deaf at all?!” But I live my life as is, being partially deaf.

[@sugerbabesrock123]

Oh my god! All this time, it's just been a phase?! Thank you, For Hinguerez, for enlightening me! I wish you'd told me sooner though. It would have saved all the trouble of going to constant audiology appointments since the age of 3 and having doctors shove weird telescopes down my ear. If I'd known my half-deafness was only temporary then maybe I could have skipped that operation I had 4 years ago when they drugged me and put grommets in my ear. Oh if only I'd known! Smh.

Yes, the title should have been altered slightly as it is just room for people to make fun of it, but what people in the comments don't understand is that every Deaf/deaf/HOH person is different. Some of us want a cochlear implant and some of us feel it changes our identity, some of us are happy being Deaf (even if this is hard for hearing people to understand) and some of us are not. The point of this video was to educate on the differences of people with hearing loss so that these silly, uneducated comments were not made. Unfortunate that even after we voice/sign what we want the rest of the world to know we are still not taken notice of!
