It would be fun to see a conversation between y’all where Ellen IS expressive and doesn’t use her voice!
Good idea 💡‼️
I had the same thought while watching the video!
Yes!! Agreed!
Yes please!
Totally agree!
Ryan don’t ever apologize for being in teaching mode! You’re literally the best teacher!!! Way more effective than a classroom setting. We love Professor Ryan! 🤣
hard agree! The teaching mode was fantastic.
This is so interesting. The train one reminds me of how people say "that train has left the station." Meaning, it's too late so move on. Lol.
Yes basically! Lol
I was proud of myself for knowing that one!
Yah, it’s the sign equivalent of the phrase “missed the boat”.
THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT! 😲
Reminded me of " Train Go Sorry" ( Deaf Culture book)..from way back ( gosh I'm old)🙂
The "pow" one is the new mic drop.
exactly
Hey just wanted to let you know that my mom uses your drive thru vids with her employees for part of their training
As a Hearing Impaired persons growing up my Parent didn't want me to learn ASL. Your channel is the best. You 2 are so perfect for each other. Thanks for shareing your lives and Java with us!
Im sorry they kept you from that. 😞🤗
If that’s not rude of me, and if you don’t mind me asking, why would they not want you to learn sign language? Wouldn’t it have been easier for you to communicate with others like that? I can hear so my perspective is pretty ignorant, I apologize for that, I’d like to be educated about it if you don’t mind 😅😊
@@nova-kiin I don't find that rude at all. 1) I would have had to be sent to a Special School back in the day 2) it would have been something my parents would have had to learn as well... It really wasn't their thing. I adapted to the environment around me... Leared to read lips however during the Pandemic lip-reading is difficult when others are wearing Mask. Texting and emails have become my new normal.
@@scottatherton2747 I see, I understand, thank you very much for taking the time to explain. I’m so sorry you didn’t have that chance growing up, I didn’t realize it would have been difficult, but I’m glad that today we have the technology to connect and learn much more easily than before. I hope that you found a way to communicate that is comfortable for you now. ☺️
I'm HoH finally learning even tho I've been HoH since 9
But my mom and my aunt rely on lip reading (they are profound hearing) they don't feel the need for the language
I love when you both forget the camera and just communicate ❤
Haha it happened more often in this video for sure
She never sees his hand, her eyes are always on his eyes, this shows how much she loves him ♥️
They both do the same. In one video they talk about eye contact being important in signing, which is interesting considering you’d think you’d want to look at their hands, but I assume it’s because our eyes have a wide enough view to see what’s being signed and the person’s eyes.
ASL slang... Something that I never realized existed but now I feel dumb for not realizing that "Of course it exists!" sooner. Languages are fascinating
The train one reminds me of a Mexican saying “se te fue el tren” that means something like “the train left without you” so it basically means you missed something too! I might start using that sign! Love u both
Danitza Z I haven't heard that saying in a while, its funny hearing it again especially when it's not being said to me😄
Ryan, I just want to describe how soft spoken, loving and calm Ellen's voice is. She sounds very sweet, patient, positive, uplifting... if you know what I mean. You just have some people that sound so calm and like... "everything is going to be ok" type voice.... 😉❤️... just figured I'd let you know.
I’m not sure what Ellen did with her hair but it looks really nice!
I was getting so excited guessing some of these right lol
Me too! 😂😂
That’s awesome!
Okay wow!! ELLEN YOU ARE GLOWING!!!
I always get so excited to see a new post from you two! There’s love, education, and comedy all in one video! 🤣💗💗💗
Me too
Yes! And for me inspiration as well.
When a new word or phrase becomes adopted in the hearing world, like "alternative facts" or "Bootylicious," how does the use of new terms evolve in ASL? Is there a forum where the deaf community decides on a common way to sign the new word or phrase? Do things start with spelling it out before a sign evolves? The slang video was excellent and made me wonder about how new signs develop? Big fans of your channel!
I’d love to see another video where Ellen just signs instead of simcomming, so we can see her facial expressions! But I appreciate that she signs and talks at the same time so I can pick up vocabulary. I really liked this video. Y’all are great.
My husband uses the "trains gone" one ALL THE TIME. I'm hearing and thought it was something he had just made up! Lol
Hello! My name is Isis, I'm from Brazil. I've descovered your channel a few weeks ago, maybe a month, and I would like to say that I love your videos, they have a really good vibe, and you two and Java are so cute!
Watching your videos gave me motivation to study the Brazil sign language, called LIBRAS. I always wanted to, so I decided to start. Now, it's been 3 weeks since I started, I don't know that much yet, but it is really great to study!
Your work is amazing! Thank you for share with us your experiences together! ❤️
They are seriously the cutest!! 😍😍 I love watching them! They’re literally helping me with my ASL.
Glad we can help out ☺️
obsessed with your channel. love what you all put out. thank you for educating and entertaining us. xoxo
Discovered your channel like a month ago and I couldn't stop watching! Love you guys! So glad you're uploading more frequently
I loved this!!! Its really fascinating to see the signs for different areas be a bit different. Love you two and Java. Thank you for the fun perspective on your communication.
I seriously LOVE your videos! Brings a little light to the day and I learn new things, thank you!!!!!
Love it♥️ Thank you for sharing your videos. Please keep them coming 🤟🏼
I love your guys’ videos! I just found y’all’s channel and I’m obsessed 🙌🏻🙌🏻
I always like before watching because the connection you two have makes me so happy. It’s the boost of positivity I need in my day.🙂
Yay!! So glad to see you two are back with more videos! This was really interesting! Thanks :)
I found this couple a few weeks ago and I love them!!
Love it! Learning slang is one of my favorite parts of signing with deaf people. It gives the opportunity to show some personality. :)
Ryan! Do you have things in your apartment (house?) to alert you to noises if Ellen isn't home? Like, the doorbell, someone knocking, intruders, the smoke detector, etc.? Just curious!
This is a great question. I would like to know the answer too becuase I am doing a project on this. An answer from soemone with ecperience would be great.
@@aubreyhughs5839 I know from experience in with the deaf community some people have doorbells that flash a light inside the home to alert you someone is at the door. also some deaf schools have the same structure a flashing light to alert of class change instead of the bell. hope this helped
@@jrbnyc9898 Thanks so much. That's very interesting.
Installing 'Ring' or something similar would be a good idea.
@@amee5364 Oh ok, that is a good idea
Is incredible to see the evolution of your channel! It is so much better in terms of quality! Much love from Brazil ❤
Awww u guys are so wholesome! I just found this channel and i think it is a great way for people like myself to learn asl u earned another subscriber! 💕
I just started to learn asl again. I started a while ago and stopped but when I watched you guys, it inspired me to keep going😊
Fascinating, as always. You two bring signing to life.
Because school is online now I’m having trouble remembering a lot of signs which sucks when I have to do my ASL assignments but watching your videos definitely helps and they are entertaining 👌🏼💯💕
My corporation hosted ASL classes by one of its Deaf employees...I was the only person who finished it.
I went on to continue learning, and can just communicate now. One thing fascinated me was regional dialects.
The word for 'shoe' in Vancouver, Canada, where I live was much different in NYC, a city I visited a lot.
it meant the opening in a person's 'derriere'...very funny, but one certainly must be careful.
Also I never could finger spell fast...Deaf people are super observant...they notice everything.
I also am perceptually enhanced because I am certified Hard of Hearing...You two are very very
graced to have found each other... blessings and regards...
This is brilliant. So informative and entertaining. Thank you. I just discovered you today. Love y'all!
I am so glad you have started back doing new vlogs. I just absolutely love watching you guys. You make my heart smile.
This one as very interesting. I know that teaching the deaf kids I have worked with over the years, there were new regional signs that were made up that were quite clever.
You both are just amazing and so much fun. Hope to see more videos soon. I love to see the rapport you have with each other. Especially when you get tickled with each other about something you say or do.
Another thing. You two are such an adorable and cute looking couple together.
Keep it going. 🤟
I just found y’alls channel a few weeks ago and I love it! I have a deaf coworker and watching your channel made me see the world differently, but i love how you guys handle everything though and I love love y’all’s relationship! 💛
Teacher-mode is great! Thanks to both of you for being so patient and generous with your knowledge.
i’m learning asl in college now, 2 years into it, and i love how educational/informative ur videos are while also being fun and personality-filled at the same time. its so great :))
I’m learning sign and I’ve been watching Ellen’s sign language short lessons from two years ago. They have been very helpful!
This video is sooooo cool!!! We've been talking about slang & it's usage in my ASL & Interpreting theory class more. Have you ever considered doing a video of hearing slang, & seeing how much English/hearing slang Ryan knows? I think that would be cool to see too
I think there's an English saying for "the trains left the station" that's what the "too late" slang sign reminded me of
I ❤❤❤ watching you together. I took 2 years of sign language my junior and senior year of high school so I love I came across your channel. Plus ryan mouthing words is like my asmr lol I relaxed watching this video.
Even though i might never encounter a deaf person in my life, I still want to learn ASL just in case....
This video is the best one yet!!!!! Love u guys!!!🤟🏻🤟🏻
What a great session
I've started learning ASl, because its really a handy thing to know, and so far, I'm enjoying it! I can fingerspell (for the most part) and know a few random signs which aren't something that comes up in a conversation much. I recently found your channel, and already love it! Have a nice day, and please stay safe!
I literally love your guy's channel. I've been really picking up PSE!!! I wanna be a social worker and plan to take a sign language class next semester.
This made my day! I'm so happy you guys are posting more often! 😊
We are too Danielle ☺️
I’m learning more from this video than from my ASL-4 class this year 😭😂 also I agree you are a good teacher, you seem very patient and encouraging
The chemistry between you two... ugh I can't get enough of it!! One question for you guys, when will you be re-stocking your merch? :D sending love from AZ!
Your videos make me so happy. You 2 are so great! Thanks for teaching us ☺️
I really like you guys! You just got a new subscriber! I am trying to learn ASL. My sister learned a lot about the deaf community when she was taking ASL at Uni. Thank you for your great content!
This is only the second video of yours that I've seen. I enjoy learning from you. I started learning ASL about 20 years ago, and one of the first slang signs I learned was the "train gone" sign you just showed. Love that one! Other than some classes, my main teacher is a deaf friend for/with whom I sign regularly. She is probably more familiar with older slang signs, since we're both over 55, so it would be interesting to see Ryan and Joan (my friend) compare notes on regional, and maybe inter-generational, slang.
Oh my goodness I can't even, you two are adorable!! :) Blessings to you both and Java!!
ANOTHER GREAT VIDEOOOOOO! Thanks for the great content 👌. This is the only channel that kept me going through quarantine! I hope that more content is coming! God bless you and your lives! 👏👏😂👍
So glad you enjoyed it👍👍👍🤙🏻 more to come!
You guys have the sweetest chemistry!
i love this and found it so informative! i'd love more videos about Deaf young adult culture, the way friends talk to each other in ASL. super interesting. love your videos guys!!
I really hope you guys start posting again soon! My ASL professor showed us some of your videos, and absolutely love your content! Especially as a Socal girl too. OC isn't far at all so I love that I've learned some more regional sign from you guys!
I love the sound Ryan’s mouth makes when he starts sighing in ASL it’s really soothing and I’m trying to learn ASL and I’ve been watching your videos. Keep up the good work 🤟🏻
im graduating this year and your videos have showed me something i’m really passionate about and its helped me decide i want to major in ASL. THANK YOU!!!
Probably the biggest thing i have learnt from your channel is the heightened conversational and communicative intelligence that is facilitated and becomes necessary to those who are deaf. Truly very admirable and i have a heightened respect and appreciation for people who communicate in this way either by choice or out of necessity. Its quite a beautiful form of communication, in my opinion, and finds a space within communication and personal interaction that amalgamates body language, facial expression, mannerisms, tone, and intention. Very fascinating, in all honesty. As i said, i can only respect these communicators more due to the lessons and information conveyed through your channel. Thank-you for giving up your time to educate others through your experiences! Bless :)
Ah so happy to see notifications from this channel! Sending peace and love your way ❤
You guys are so wonderful, you have inspired many people including me to learn ASL so I can communicate with others!
Love this video!!! So interesting and fun!
Guys! You made me smile, you both are so cool and I hope to see more videos of you pleaseeeeee!!! Greetings from Colombia
I love this channel so much. It brightens my day when I get a notification saying there's a new video posted
I hope sbsk interviews you. You guys are so soothing to watch and I’ve learned a lot. Thank you for creating this channel.
I met a friend who’s deaf and we’ve been texting a lot but I want to communicate with him normally so he taught me some basic ASL and I found this channel and I love it!! it’s really helpful funny cute and taught me a lot for the last 2 years so thank u guys so much
it is always soooo funnn to watch you guys!
and I always comment the same thing but it's truuue!
i have been watching you two ever since I started learning ASL - like more than a year ago, you two used to have less than 10k followers and I would ooonly watch Ryan sign with CC on
Now everytime I get better! Today I understood it all aaaaaahhhh it's sooooo exciting to watch you two without pausing and enjoying it!
Love this! This was refreshing to watch ❤️
I would love to see a video on the signs you guys have come up with just the two of you! Great video!
I just wanted to say that I appreciate what you were doing on this channel helping people with communicating with deaf people and answering questions and just talking about this type of stuff it's very helpful and I saw in a previous video that when the boyfriend (I'm sorry I forget your name I just started watching you guys today) went to get food and he told the McDonald's workers that he was deaf they acted very rude to him that made me feel sad because they shouldn't be like that and then when you went to Starbucks how that guy acted to you and was so nice I wish there more people who are like that. You guys you are really nice and good people and I hope you guys have a good day you guys are awesome thank you for helping us because so people are nice not mean for an example : "When my uncle and my cousin and I were at McDonald's and this was when you could dine in and there was this guy I think he had autism my uncle was very mean to him when he would ask us if we need anything and the guy was just trying to be nice and I was being nice to him because you should be nice to people no matter what and I wish I could have said like hey I'm sorry about my uncle and stuff but I didn't get a chance too." I wish that my uncle wasn't ignorant or racist and very mean like he is because this world needs nice people not mean people. I was raised to treat people how I want to be treated the only time I didn't do that is when people thought they could just walk all over me because of how nice I am I don't like that I have to be mean but we all sometimes have too but I hope that you guys can teach the kids how to treat people right and teach the kids more about people who are deaf and sign language and I wish that this will teach people to be nice more and be respectful.(sorry that it's Alot I hope this makes sence sometimes I don't make sense because of my adhd hopefully you understand what I'm trying to say...)have a good day and be strong I know it can be hard just stay strong.
I love you guys!!! I’m learning asl and am going to be in asl class next semester at school!!♥️
❤️ hope you enjoy it!
Becaus of you guys and skillshare, I’m learning some asl. That’s something I’ve wanted to do for a long time. Thank you! I’m loving it!
You two are great. Thanks for sharing this with us. 💙💚
Omg never been this early, lots of love from chile!💕 Here we have LsCh so is really fun seeing the difference between signs.
Hi I just want to say I love your channel!!!! You guys have inspired me to learn sign language!!! Thank you! 🤟
I just found this channel.....and I kinda wish I found it sooner... because I realized how much I am blessed to be able to hear, and it warmed my heart to see Ellen go out of her way just to understand and communicate to Ryan😊God bless you guys😌😊
They are literally couple goals...so cute together 😊 You can tell they have such good chemistry...she really loves him, so sweet 😍♥️🤟🏼
Wooo! Love it! You guys are so awesome!
Y'all look amazing, enjoyed the video!
12:30 that’s actually what you see in italy every day lol
You two seem so happy and flirty here. I love it 🥰
I always wondered if there was ASL slang! Awesome video! Cheers
This was fun to watch! I don’t know very many deaf people in my area, I learned ASL from my Mom since she used to teach at the school for the deaf and I have books too.
I was surprised i could figure some of these out! And i absolutely love the “too late/you missed out” sign 😯🤗
There are so many Deaf slang and Idioms there could be a part 2, love the content. This one made me nostalgic, my mom was the most expressive person and used a lot of “slang” in conversation and story telling 😊
You guys are so adorable together. Makes me smile 😊
I love your videos so much. You both are so weird and funny, peak content.
I love to watch both of you so soo much!🤩 And I've also started learning ASL!
I'm eagerly waiting for the day when u both will get engaged!!! Best wishes 💕 😊😊
love yalls videos learn a lot of signing from yall , I've been learning sign for my nonverbal autistic son ( my youngest ) lol
Doing SkillShare ASL course and it's great!! Thank you, guys!
Sending love from San Diego
You both look sooo good, Ryan is soo much different more fit compare to the old vids. Keep up the healthy lifestyle!
When this started I assumes it would be more the area you live in but I actually know most of these! I'm an interpreting student. Love it
Awesome video!! You guys are great and so cute to watch!!😄💛🐸
I alway check your channel during school to see if you guys uploaded 🥰.
