    Hello, I’m trying to make pins for friends that sign Quebec sign language as a gift. I do not speak any French dialect, myself. I know one pin with full words would say “J'utilise la langue des signes québécoise” (please correct me if there are any errors) If I were to make a pin with something shorter, would it say “J'utilise LSQ”, “J'utilise la LSQ”, or something else? Thank you in advance to anyone and everyone that can help :)

    Hello, I have purchased a gift for my Polish-American partner, but he’s not completely fluent in Polish like his father. I’d like what I got for him to be a surprise, so I can‘t really ask the family for help translating, and I don’t know enough Polish to try to type out what is hand-written. Some of the paid translation services I found stopped being active around 2016. Would someone be willing to help me translate the letter? Thank you in advance.

    Introduce myself

    Hello!

    I'm Konatsu from Japan.

    I live in Taiwan now,  (comma not needed here) and study movie production at University (do not capitalise 'university' unless specifying which one, such as University of Massachusetts).

    I like watching movies, traveling, dancing, singing, and eating around.

    I've (add 'been' between 'I've' and 'tutoring') tutoring Japanese for more than four years.

    Let's talking Japanese with me (you could just say 'Let's speak Japanese together' or 'Let's talk Japanese together' since this sounds a little closer to a native speaker) !

    and making friends! (instead, say 'Let's be friends!' or 'Want to be friends?' or 'I also like to make new friends!' since most written - not spoken - English would not start a new sentence with the word 'And')

    Deutsch: What is the difference between 'Schauspieler' und 'Darsteller'? Hello all, When I was studying, I had learned that 'Schauspieler' meant 'actor.' However, when I was watching a behind the scenes video of the König der Löwen, the child actors were called 'Kinderdarstellar.' My questions is: Are there only certain scenarios where one word is more appropriate to use than the other? Is 'Darstellar' only used for children? Is 'Schauspieler' only used for actors doing Shakespeare and other classic works? Any input would be appreciated! Here is the video: "König der Löwen"-Musical: Die perfekte Illusion | Wie geht das? | NDR https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoRSJg5ymiM&index=1&list=PLLl5p4J0wrIAGER1DG3AU_JJKT8QPNJEi - Meagan

    Thank you so much for the help! My school's wifi won't actually let me open the link, but I'll get the chance to see it sometime this weekend.

     

    I've taken a few sign language courses and read a few Deaf culture books, so I know a little bit about how ASL came from Old French Sign Language (Martha's Vineyard, Clerc, Gallaudet University, etc.). I was just hoping to get a little bit more than stories like Abbé de l'Épée. More stories about Old French Deaf culture. I've read a version of Cinderella with magical gloves that made her signing elegant and perfect for the Deaf prince she met, but I'm not sure how far back that version of the story goes.

     

    I know I'm not ready to actually learn French sign yet (I still have to learn the French language itself), I was just hoping to find some sources to study from when I think I'm ready to start learning it.

     

    Thank you for the help Susan! Are you learning any signed languages right now?

    Signed Languages

    Hello all,

     

    Having looked through the italki site, it has come to my attention that most people (if not all people) that are interested in learning Sign Language are actually interested in learning <em>American</em> Sign Language (ASL).

     

    There are many signed languages as well as countless dialects of signed languages, which is also the case for spoken languages. You can search for images of the 'sign language family tree' to see how some of the signed languages are related to each other.

     

    I wanted to know if anyone has studied or is interested in studying British Sign Language (BSL) and/or French Sign Language (<em>la langue des signes française</em>, LSF) on italki. If anyone can make any recommendations about what sites to go to or books to get on BSL and LSF I would very much appreciate it!

     

    It would also be cool to talk to someone on italki who knows/can talk about the history and evolution of Old French Sign Language.

     

    I don't know how to end this note.... so..... <em>fin</em>.
