ASL SEMANTICS:
Precision of
Expression Series
Focus Word: FALL |
NEW!!! DVD:
$40 |
|
 |
Semantics is
defined as the
study of
meanings
expressed by the
elements of a
language or a
combination of
the elements. A
concept
expressed in an
ASL sign often
cannot be
conveyed by a
single
all-purpose
English word.
Likewise,
English words
and phrases may
have variations
in meaning,
which require
translations
using different
ASL signs. This
workshop helps
the student
advance skills
in translating
the languages of
ASL and English.
