Note: Suppose your partner asks you, "YOU MAD, FOR-FOR ?" and you are not mad? I recommend
that you respond, "NOT MAD ME (while shaking the head
negatively). Or suppose you don't have a boyfriend, (or girlfriend)
and your signing partner asks you if your boyfriend (or girlfriend) gets jealous easy. You might
reply, "(not)-HAVE BOY-FRIEND."
REMEMBER… If you don’t understand,
use these signs:
HEY, AGAIN, SLOW, SPELL, FORGET

Note: The sign “City” can also be interpreted as “community.”
The sign “FOR-FOR” can be interpreted as “WHY?”
There are two versions of “BEFORE”
1. Before now = “PAST”2. Before something= “Prior to”
Each of these signs also has variations in production.
The concept of “SELF” can be used for various pronouns.
Myself / yourself / himself / itself – automatic / themselves
Sometimes you may see new vocabulary in a signed
sentence.
Be BOLD and ask what certain signs mean. Use your tools: HEY, AGAIN,
SLOW, SPELL, ALL. If they spell too fast, keep your
hand in the air and do it with them.
