20 ASL Signs You Need to Know! - Sign Language 

We just hired an employee who is deaf. I want him to feel comfortable and as his supervisor, I’m determined to be able to communicate with him. Thank you!

I am DETERMINED to learn ASL. I took one year in college, but I didn't really have anyone to talk to and practice with.

I truely appreciate the repeatitive signs at different angles! I tend yo struggle with confidence in signing without a full view of proper form!!!

The way you explain, put into context with a sentence or example, then repeat several times and finish with the spoken word and sign have made this 10000000 times easier for me to learn online. I have used basic sign for infant communication for 12+ years but in 2 days have more than doubled the amount of signs I know and now use regularly. Keep posting, keep sharing, and your page will grow! I’m sure of it! My ADHD brain is so relieved having found this page! Thank you so so so much!

I want to learn ASL and I take all that you teach me in your videos and practice them all throughout the day. By doing this I even practice with my family. Whenever I see my dad I sign "Hi dad" and he signs "Hi beautiful" and I teach him the different signs I learned from your videos. Thank you!

Creed brought me here... I think I'll stay too.

This was so helpful. You explain so well very easy to understand.

This is awesome, so helpful. Thank you 🙏🏼

I'm not really learning sign language per se but I find it really cool, props for the good work ❤

Thank you so much I can use those sighs to talk to my deaf friend.😄😃😃😄

I watch all your videos with my daughter Ty

Love your videos! when signing, does it matter which hand you use for signing? Left? Right? Thank you!

Thank you for the amazing videos; I've just started learning ASL and have found your videos are very easy to understand. You state the word and present the sign clearly so it is easy to follow. I appreciate that you do a few repetitions so I can try it and then you move on. Some people videos go on and on until you want to skip forward, which inevitably gets you lost in the middle of the next section. I find I can follow along in your videos and then replay a couple of times and I've got it down. If I need a few more tries on just one sign your videos make it easy to jump right to the section I would like to re-watch. I have one question about the sign for "help". You show how to make the sign by placing your dominant hand in a thumbs up on your other palm and then bring them both up. Next you say if when "help" used directionally you have the thumbs-up-on-palm and bring it towards yourself or towards the direction of the task/area with which you need help. My question is, when using "help" directionally, do you bring your hands straight towards yourself or do you bring them up and in towards yourself/up and in at a diagonal? Basically, do you still bring the hands Up? Sorry for what I'm sure is a very rudimentary question and thank you again for your videos. I'm hoping to get familiarized with some basic ASL signs before taking a course in the spring and your content is great.

Your method definitely makes it easier to learn ASL. Thank you.

Gooood! I'm going to train myself, is sign language universal? will they understand me in Portuguese?

When you are saying please, does it matter in which direction you go? (Clockwise or Counterclockwise)

hey i cant lower my finger close to my pinky is there any way to say i love you another way or should i use my other hand to lower the finger it got injured in a street fight

How can I sign "fill in the blank" answer correctly?

For yours do we touch their chest or just push forward?

Very beginner friendly. Thanks

Is there a way to sign help with only one hand?

Cool

Wow

Thanks again. I have seen a deaf woman who uses the letter "B" handshape along with a salute to say hello as well. Is that an acceptable alternative sign to the two signs you show in this video?

Every time I do thank you I always do a little kissy with my lips haha

I have tiny bites and pieces of sign language. I was trying to help an employee at a store with a customer that started to yell at him because he thought he was being ignored. Long story short I used the wrong sign for deaf… I signed using a letter d going from my ear to chin, but later remember it was just supposed to be my index finger…. Did I say something offensive?

question, what's the difference between good and thank you?

Hi, this is very helpful but I think you may have missed a couple of important words like you're welcome or sorry. Just a thought!

really glad i found your channel. Very helpful.

I really wanna learn ASL (even though there's nobody to practice it with lol) and your videos have helped me a ton no real reason or whatever just wanted you to know that your videos are cool and you deserve more subs :DDD

Thank you so much!! 🙏🏻 I am excited that I have all of these words mastered!! Onward I go!

I want to learn this

👍👍👍👍❤️ from INDIA

Taking basic ASL in a group, total immersion style which is great, but I am using your videos for refresh and practice. THANK YOU for the repetitive signing and signing from different directions.

Thank you miss

Great job! I will use them. Hello, finished, Help you, etc. Thank you! God bless you

Dude your content is so great. Thanks for making ASL learning feel intuitive and fun. Appreciate you!

Love your channel! You are the best!

I love this video 😊super helpful

Thank you so much for these... 💕

Lovely, thank you!

So happy I just came across your post. I took 3 semesters in college year's ago but it's hard when you're not using it on a regular basis. I think everyone should at least learn the basics. You never know when you may need to use ASL. I have been in a situation where I was able to help someone that was deaf but I've also been in a situation where I needed it to be able to communicate after a mini stroke. Thanks again😉

I loved it! Thanls!
