Hi Mel, I don't think you need to apologise...just so grateful for your time. Interesting video today, really emphasises how much 'everything' contributes to the story. I watched a second time with the subtitles off and you really paint the picture well, even though I didn't know all the signs! Thank you.

Thank you Nigel, you're very welcome. I'm really pleased the video was helpful. I must admit I love story telling, probably since very young so role shift is one of my favourite things. Thank you very much for your nice comment.

Thank you so much for your content! After watching a few videos, in 40 minutes, I think I have sentence structure down- do you mind checking this to see if it makes sense? English: My name is Stephanie. I am 15 years old. I like listening to music because it’s fun. I want to be an engineer because I like maths, physics and computers BSL: my name Stephanie. I am 15. Music listening like, why? Fun. Engineer want, why? Because I like maths, physics and computers. Thanks so much for your useful videos

[@bsllearningwithmel4459]

Hi Stephanie, thank you for your message. The sentence needs changing slightly. " Name me Stephanie. Music listening like why, fun. Future engineer work why? Maths, physics, computer like." But well done though.

[@bsllearningwithmel4459]

Hi Stephanie, I just noticed you put, I am 15. All you need to sign is"15". If you nod your head slightly it indicates that you're talking about yourself. When signing about age it comes from the nose, when signing about money, i.e £1 it comes from the chin.

[@stephanie2461]

@@bsllearningwithmel4459 ah okay; so I’d tap my nose before signing 15, and if I was signing £15, I’d tap my chin?

@@stephanie2461 Hi Stephanie, you don't need to tap your nose, rather the sign comes from your nose.
