UCB Parents Advice about Babies Baby Sign Language Advice and recommendations from the UCB Parents mailing list. This page is brought to you by UC Berkeley Parents Network Back to Advice about Babies Related page: Sign language lessons Teaching baby to sign ASL vs. baby sign Local baby sign classes Teaching baby to sign Hi, I'm thinking of taking advantage of the proximity of a sign language teacher and having her teach me and possibly my baby to sign. I'd heard that they can learn simple sign at six months, well before they start to speak. Then I started wondering if that might be a problem later that is, would it delay his verbal development because he can already make himself understood by signing? Does anyone have any relevant experience with this? Heather re: Signing and baby read Seeing Voices by Oliver Sacks. He thinks humans may have first commicated by sign and that verbal communication came as a result of a need to do other things with our hands. In any case I really, really doubt that teaching your baby sign could hurt in any way. Have fun. Margy This is to the mom who asked about signing and her 6-month old and whether it would inhibit his verbal language development. There is a great book called "Baby Signs" by Acredolo and Goodwyn. They are psychologists who have studied using primitive signs with infants (hearing, normally developing babies) to actually enhance their communication skills. Infants begin to use nonverbal gestures on their own. The authors encourage parents to become intuned with these gestrues and to encourage them to foster communciation before children have verbal communication. Also, there are many "bilingual" children hearing children born to parents who have hearing impairments learn sign and spoken language. I think it's a great idea to expose your son. Have fun and good luck. Bonnie

146. Taiwanese Sign Language Taipei Ph.D. Student RungHuei Liang introduces some gestures of TSL. Links to his gesture-recognition research. http://www.cmlab.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~f1506028/TSL.html

Rung-Huei Liang Taiwanese Sign Language The Taiwanese Sign Language (TWL) includes 50 fundamental postures. A gesture in TWL consists of one or more postures sequentially moved or posed to some position or direction. For example, "Father" in TWL is gesticulated as making the posture numbered one, which means one, to the cheek and then making the posture numbered twenty-six, which means "male". Each gesture can be thought as a vocabulary in a lexicon, and a sentence is a sequence of gestures. Moreover, there are two styles of gesture in TWL: natural sign language and grammatical sign language. Natural style is mostly used by the disabled, especially the elder generation. Its order of sequence of vocabularies may be different from that of Chinese. The grammatical style is taught in the elementary school and is consistent with the order of word sequence of Chinese. Because of the consistency and regulrity, we tentatively only take grammatical style into account in our research. Detail description can be found in my paper and my proposal

University of Rochester ASL Program Undergraduate ... Contact Us American Sign Language Program American Sign Language (ASL) is the native language for many deaf Americans, particularly those who are congenitally and profoundly deaf. It is a central vehicle for communication among deaf people, and is therefore also a binding force in their culture. Not only is it a full natural language, it is also at the core of a new literary tradition, both in poetry and theater. ASL is not a derivative of English, and its study raises many important scientific questions about the true universals of language as well as their developmental and neurological origins. This fact is reflected in the increasing linguistic and psychological research on ASL, the establishment of a number of ASL programs around the country, and the frequency with which conferences in this field are being held. ASL Undergraduate Program The ASL Program offers a Bachelor's degree (major) or a minor in ASL within the division of the Humanities. Students with majors in other divisions can broaden their education with course clusters in ASL. The ASL Program offers practical preparation for people entering a variety of professions in the field of deafness, such as deaf educators, sign language interpreters, researchers, counselors, government specialists, program administrations, or community service personnel. Major Minor Clusters ASL Curriculum While many ASL courses exist in the United States, very few have the instructional depth found at the University of Rochester (which has 200-level courses taught in ASL). Furthermore, few of these programs are at major universities or approach the study of signed languages as part of the Liberal Arts, analogous to the study of spoken languages. The University of Rochester's ASL Program is a modern language, literature and culture program, and also approaches the study of signed languages from a linguistic and scientific perspective. See the following course descriptions.

156. Language Myths Hugh Young from New Zealand dispels universal myths about sign languages, as well as about Pidgin as Maori. http://www.top.net.nz/~hugh/Vanity/Personal/LanguageMyths.html

Language Myths These language myths all have an underlying theme: " Other people's languages - especially those most different from ours - are inferior to ours. " Our language, the primary way we express ourselves, is one place our insecurities come to a focus, so we feel compelled to minimise the value of other ways of communicating. (This almost automatically gives native bilinguals an edge on the rest of us. They can think in two planes. Learning another language - preferably unrelated to our first - is our best hope of rising above the limitations of our culture.) Below I deal with myths about Pidgin, Sign Languages and Maori Pidgin Myth: "'Bikfala bokis hemi garem plande tit, iu faetem, hemi krae (A big box with many teeth; when you hit it, it cries)' means a piano." (That's what it would be in Solomons Pijin) I have searched far and wide and been unable to find any instance of a speaker of a pidgin ever using an expression like this - nor the corresponding expressions for violin, saw or helicopter. Fact: Life's too short, even in the tropics. The helicopter one ("miksmasta blong Jisas") is further confounded by the fact that helicopters are familiar, mixmasters rare. As someone said, they'd be more likely to call a mixmaster, "helikopta blong Misas." It may be that someone somewhere once
