      I keep the subtitles on and I'm not hard of hearing, but modern TV is notorious for having really quiet dialogue and huge explosions within seconds of each other which is jarring for any ear. Accents are also difficult for me, especially if someone is speaking quickly.

      Autistic, and learning ASL has really helped me when I have trouble speaking. Sometimes I shut down and it's hard to speak, but using ASL not only helps me communicate, but can act as a form of stimming because it's giving my hands something to do so I'm not so overwhelmed.

      There's also a big mistake in the subtitles/captions/whatever you call them CZcams provides. Suddenly at about a minute in the video, all subtitles from CZcams from the beginning re-appeared, but now over the burned in captions from the video itself. Pity.

      I got the dvd-boxset of Friends. Well, for me, as a Dutch guy, there are so many references to local commercials, brands, stores and what not that it's hard to follow along, thus subtitles are always on. I don't care what other people think.

  • @booberryhoundcake
    @booberryhoundcake Před 4 lety +16

    I'd love the chance to take a sign language class again. It was one of the most important languages to me because I grew up meeting a lot of deaf children and wanted so badly to be able to talk to them. I was able to take it for 2 years when I first entered high school, but wasn't able to keep learning in that environment when I moved.

    • @weeardguy
      @weeardguy Před 3 lety +2

      When I was in primary school there were 2 children (brother and sister, the sister being the oldest) who both could hear, but needed hearing-aides to be able to understand what people said. (this part is for everyone under 30, you have no idea how technology has advanced)
      His devices incorporated possibilities for the now so common loop facilities but on a very small scale. In the daily 'circle-talk' in class (maybe that's something Dutch, I don't know), the person speaking had to be wearing a heavy box with lavalier mic, which would radio the sound to him, while he was wearing a similar box but then without the mic but the cord that held the box around your neck facilitating a loop so his aides could pick up the radio and he could hear what the person speaking was saying.
      It was only a few years ago I realised deaf people probably don't take much joy in most videos as there are no subtitles and explanations of things going on in the video. Since then I just provide subtitles in two languages (Dutch, my native language, and English)
      The same I'm still looking for a way to provide audio-transcription...

    Well, sometimes it is hard for some people to be deaf. I like my life as is but yes, it’s harder to be deaf in one ear. Sometimes I’m a bit just like “Why did I have to be deaf in only one ear? Can’t I just be either deaf in both ears or not deaf at all?!” But I live my life as is, being partially deaf. Some people think I’m lying as I go to a hearing school and don’t use hearing aids tho, it’s hard only depending on my left ear.

But youre right, it is super interesting to look at the differences in sign language-i think theres more than 300 in the world?🤔

      @I'm just saying it's okay man. English isn't my first language either. By 'senses heightened' they meant that since they have hearing disability, people think that they can see or smell better. And GAYDAR means gay-radar. It's like being able to tell if someone is attracted to their same sex. Jessica is gay (or bi/pan I dunno, she's married to a woman though) So she's saying that she has an excellent gaydar.

    The thing I hate the most is when someone finds out you're deaf and puts on that hateful compassionate face and says something like "Oh, I'm very sorry, I didn't knew that, you're so intelligent that you don't seem deaf!". Once I was in class and I got distracted for a second, so I asked my teacher to repeat the thing she had just said. And she rudely asked "Are you deaf?". She had said that multiple times to almost everyone in the class. I was so annoyed by that that I answered :"Yes, I am!". When she understood that I wasn't joking, that compassionate face came out and she suddenly was super sorry and started apologizing and talking to me like I was someone who had to be pitied by everyone. Sorry for my English, it's not my native language

It takes real dedication and hard practice to articulate without hearing the sounds coming out of your mouth. It's different for people who became deaf later in life (I think) but for people who were born deaf and are able to talk are the people I look up to. Always challenging themselves and succeeding in what they do, I could never...

      I know bubble and whatever in ASL because my friend has Aspergers and gets so overwhelmed sometimes she can’t talk or I get so overwhelmed from my emotions that I can’t (cptsd) but we sign each other back and forth when it gets that bad. The main ones I know are because those are our “leave me alone” words. Like when we need space. It’s the line in the sand and they are easy enough to sign that it doesn’t take a lot of energy to do them.

    I am partially deaf and cannot stand the 'You should have listened then' or the 'listen more'. It's so frustrating!
    Also when someone says something and you ask them to repeat it and they say 'it wasn't important'.
    Then I never find out what they wanted to say and the CURIOSITY EATS ME ALIVE.

      Oh my god! All this time, it's just been a phase?! Thank you, For Hinguerez, for enlightening me! I wish you'd told me sooner though. It would have saved all the trouble of going to constant audiology appointments since the age of 3 and having doctors shove weird telescopes down my ear. If I'd known my half-deafness was only temporary then maybe I could have skipped that operation I had 4 years ago when they drugged me and put grommets in my ear. Oh if only I'd known!

      By German you mean like German Sign Language? I'd like to learn some of it but sign languages look so difficult because they're 3D and I'm used to kind of 1D languages/versions of languages. Spoken language is just a string of sounds following one another, written language is about letters or in line. But sign languages are just happening everywhere and they involve hands and mimics and body language. I'd love to learn some of the Deutsche Gebärdensprache though, I'm planning to go to a course in a couple of months. I'd love to be able to talk to a deaf or hard of hearing person, overstep this communication barrier without any 3rd person translator help. So far I can only read signed letters (I'm not that good in signing them yet), tell my/hia/her name and ask about yours. I wish I could learn more.

      Not only that, but the audio levels kept changing, that's infuriating for deaf people too. I'm hard of hearing and have Hyperacusis. I had to keep adjusting the volume level because I wanted to hear the people when they did speak but I had to turn the volume down when it cut to a title card because the music got way louder and it hurt my ears.

    about a month ago i got the confirmation that im going to be deaf by the time i hit 25(18 now). My hearing has always been fine, but this past year it has been slipping away. Its funny i always said that "id love to learn sign language". Now its pretty much a reality that i have to familiarize myself with. This video has been helpful though it took away some of the fear that i have been holding on too.

      Hiya! Couple of bits of advice which could help.... Check with your local council about sign language courses, Many councils do them at a great discount. Also, check out BSLZone online. They have great documentaries, tv shows etc that will help with the transition... and they're well produced and great fun to watch! Also, maybe look up your local Deaf club so you can go and meet new people. It was a bit daunting for me the first time, but you'll find some lovely people and make friends who can understand the experiences and concerns you are facing. Good luck in the future x
