Directionality: Verbs that show who or where

Directionality The meanings of some signs in ASL change depending on the way the signs are moved. For example, the sign help can mean I help you or You help me if the movement is towards the signer or someone else. This feature of ASL is called directionality. You need to memorize which ASL signs are directional to use them correctly. Here’s a hint: If you want to sign something being done to, for, or with you, then the sign tends to be directional.

to Give to – DV to you to me DV = directional verb to all of you

to Help - DV to you to me to all of you

to Move (an object) - DV right left towards me away from me

to Tell, announce - DV to you to me to all of you

to Ask, inquire - DV ask you ask me ask everyone

to Show, demonstrate - DV to me to you to all of you Unit 2

to Bring, carry - DV to me, here To the right, over there

to Look at, watch -DVD Look at me Make eye contact Look away, break eye contact

The WH-Face (complex questions) Knowing how to ask for help is important in any language. In ASL, two key phrases are mean what and explain again. Both phrases use a specific non-manual signal called the WH-Face that resembles the simple (Yes/No) Question Face. Use the WH question face when you are uncertain, unclear, or asking a question using signs for who, what, where, when, why, etc.

I want to know Isn’t ASL just gestures or making “pictures” in the air? Some people believe ASL is a simple language of gestures like don’t do that. Using some gestures doesn’t make ASL any less of a language than English, which also sees gestures. Can you think of gestures or signs that ASL and English have in common? Some signs resemble the meaning behind the sign (like book). These are called Iconic signs, but most signs are not iconic. To close/open (door) To turn on/off (lights) Person(standing, to get up/stand up, jump, to sit down)

Asking Asking questions. Ask a partner the following questions in ASL. When done, switch roles an repeat. Remember to answer questions in a complete sentence. Are you learning ASL? 6. Do you want to meet tomorrow? Do you understand me? 7. Are you sitting down? Do you mind opening the door? 8. Are you going to school today? I’m tired. Are you? 9. What’s for homework? Who is that? 10. What does it mean?
