[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] BTW, ASL is not easy![/quote] +1. All languages are complex forms of cultural expression and communication. There are many different reasons for choosing to study one over another, but relative "easiness" is not one of them. The only thing that can facilitate faster or more comfortable development in any language is good access to frequent practice, and so learning a language that is more common in one's immediate environment (e.g. Spanish in many parts of the US) can _feel_ easier. But becoming truly capable or even borderline fluent in any new-to-you language, including ASL, takes major commitment across the board, and I'm always impressed by it. - Language prof[/quote] I'm OP and I agree. It is not easy. It is different than other languages. For my child, she feels that ASL for the path she is on (Pre-health career) is a better fit for her and is more useful. [/quote]
