How to Sign Time in British Sign Language (BSL) 

I'm Argentine. I'm an English teacher in my nation and currently learning Argentine Sign Language and, by curiousity, am I here. Let me tell you that numbers and time-telling in BSL are by far much easier than in LSA (Lengua de Señas Argentina - Argentine Sign Language) 😅 Keep it up!! Greetings from San Luis 🇦🇷

If you watch this video, follow it up with Dan's 'BSL Receptive Quiz: What's the Time?', a fantastic way to really get the hang of telling the time.

If you want some more practice understanding time in BSL, check out this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iQK02InxGso.html

You are the best teacher of sign language. 😊

Yay got all the answers to the quiz right! Your channel is a great resource for learning BSL. Thanks!

Thank you so kindly for sharing and making signing so achievable, brilliant video.

Thank you, this helped to cement some of my learning. The speed and explanation was easy to understand.

These are so useful, thank you!

Love the video as always. Very helpful and clear! Thanks!!!

Thank you very much. So clear, especially as you show the sign from different angles. Much appreciated.

Always clear and concise. Amazing help thank you x

Thanks Dan a brilliant video . Helped me to understand need for context when using sign because many signs mean several things depending on context

Brilliant video! Super clear as always.

I love all of the videos ! My sister and I are working through the videos to learn and build our knowledge of BSL ! 💫💫 I actually got all of them correct wooo

thank you very useful , two new signs did not know hour and clock . great help indeed

Brilliant Dan. So grateful…

" Thanks for the BSL Dan because we are learning practicing to help others to best of my ability "

Great video. Please keep them coming as they are so helpful

Love Dan's tee-shirt today, really nice.

Thank you 😀

Thank you for doing this it's really helped me talk to my friend

Such a great help. Thank you

Very good, please leave 3 seconds instead of 1s between each question for dyslexia.

Very useful, thank you very much. But I’m curious how you make it clear what time during the day it is. E.g 12am and 12pm and can you use the 24hour clock time as well to give a sense of morning and evening. E.g if I wanted to say 1:30pm could I say 13:30 instead to indicate pm? Or is there different ways of signing am/pm/24hr clock time?

Thank you

Love your videos they are always so helpful and easy to follow.

Question, I do better time with military. Would I just use standard 1-24 and point to wrist for watch for that?

I wanna ask how to sign 13 o'clock?

If you don't have a dominant hand, can you use either? Or should you use one?

Isn't 'five o clock' the same as 'ten'?
