Hello ASL Heroes!!! Hey, I could really use your help. If you’ve enjoyed having access to an expert in ASL you can help me continue my work for you. A small monthly donation from you would instantly make a big difference here at the studio because teachers don’t earn much and I could use some help paying for server and domain hosting for Lifeprint.com. Right now you can help out a humble (not to mention kind, caring, generous, compassionate, helpful, friendly, fair, and hard-working) ASL teacher -- just go here and a few clicks later you too will be a true “ASL Hero!” www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=64QMBRBXQSV6G Thanks! - Dr. Bill p.s. Want to have your very own USB drive with four semesters worth of ASL instruction (that’s the equivalent of two years of colleges classes) for just $79.95? See "SuperUSB" in the ASLUniversity bookstore at: lifeprint.com/bookstore/bookstore.htm Take care and love to you all. :)

Question: Why don't we need to use USE in "MUST C-A-S-H"? As in: "MUST USE C-A-S-H)?" Answer: Because context makes the sentence clear without using the sign "USE." Understand? (Note: I didn't have to type "Do you understand?") (I also didn't have to type, "Do you understand what I'm saying at this precise moment in time as opposed to some other moment in time?" Nor did I have to type: "Do you understand because your brain has processed what I'm saying at this precise moment in time as opposed to some other moment in time?"

Question: Can you elaborate a little more on why/when/how to use WRONG in the way it's being used in the video? Answer: Stop thinking of WRONG as being the dictionary equivalent of the English word "wrong." There exists some overlap, sure, but WRONG has some meanings that are not listed under the English dictionary headword "wrong." Some English synonyms: Unexpectedly... All of a sudden... Out of the blue... I was mistaken... Oh crap! (Or the other word) I didn't plan for that! That was a mistake! Whoops! A breach or infringement Crap hit the fan! An unsuitable or undesirable happening.

Question: "Is there a particular construct that's preferable to use with "nor" and "neither"?" Answer: You are asking for a "one size fits all" approach to "nor" and/or "neither." Sorry. You've gotta work for it. In this case (the video) the second CAN'T functions as the "nor." CAN'T CASH. CAN'T CREDIT-CARD. The closest you will come to a generic approach is to repeat your negative concept: CAN'T THIS, CAN'T THAT NOT THIS, NOT THAT WON'T THIS, WON'T THAT You might see something like: not-HAVE EITHER. You might see: NONE Or general lists followed by a negation: THESE-[index-list] I don't-WANT!

How do I get a private lesson with you, or are you not doing those anymore because of the Corona virus?

Hello Abigale! I'm generally not doing any new one-on-one work until the pandemic is over -- and even then any one-on-one work will typically only be to cover new topics or work on passion projects. (By passion projects I mean projects that I personally feel excited and passionate about.) Zoom-based training typically results in low video quality of 1280 by 720 resolution and occasional video lags as well as other issues that do not allow for creation of videos that I would want to use in future products or projects. On a personal level, instead of trading my time for money doing one-on-one tutoring -- I would rather invest an hour building curriculum or web pages that can benefit society While I very much enjoy teaching anyone pretty much anywhere / anytime -- doing one-on-one tutoring takes time away from scalable / cloneable projects that can be posted for thousands to see and benefit (instead of just one person). If I spend a half hour with a beginner I benefit only that one person. If I spend that same half-hour building a video or online resource (covering an advanced topic I haven't already covered) and post it publicly -- it has the potential to help many people -- ranging from several thousand to (in the case of some of my more popular videos) millions. Oh sure, there is a price-point at which I can become as excited about trading my time for money as I can about working on passion projects -- but that price point is commensurate with what you would expect charged by someone with a doctorate degree, decades of experience, and lots of fun projects competing for available time. If a person has the funds to do so and is seriously interested in hiring me away from such projects they are welcome to bid for my time. My email address can be found on my contact page (listed in the information below). Warm regards, - Dr. Bill ============================ How to use ASL University to learn sign language for free: 1.
