Sign Language Isn’t the Same Around the World
©Provided by Constative
This one isn’t surprising in the least. For one thing, we use different words and body language worldwide. For instance, you don’t nod your head for yes in India. It’s more of a wobble. That wouldn’t change if you were deaf. American Sign Language relies heavily on our alphabet, which wouldn’t work for many languages.
Obviously, certain words will be the same globally, but you can’t expect sign language to be the universal language. The truth is that there isn’t a universal language due to the variances in pronunciation and culture. I happen to think that’s a good thing. We should all strive to learn more about different cultures without becoming a vast melting pot of the same thing everywhere!

Saw this post on LinkedIn… so much truth!

Have you ever wondered what it's like inside an interpreter's brain? Here’s what happens:

🤹‍♀️ Multitasking: interpreters listen, analyse, translate and speak almost simultaneously. It is like juggling several tasks, each of which demands their full attention.
⚡ Split-second decision-making: Interpreting means processing words in real time. Interpreters make decisions in milliseconds, selecting the right words without losing sight of cultural context and tone. This requires not only linguistic knowledge, but also fast cognitive processing.
🧠 Memory capacity: Interpreters have to remember phrases and terms, retain them while interpreting and retrieve them just as quickly. It is like having an organised mental library for quick reference.
😌 Stress management: Managing cognitive load while maintaining composure under pressure is essential.

Next time you listen to an interpreter at work, remember that they are doing much more than switching from one language to another. They are performing a complex mental process, balancing multiple elements with the precision of a Cirque du Soleil performer— all in real time!

Did you know that ASL Interpreters have a "Uniform"?

Your top must be solid, no print, and a color that is opposite of your skin tone.
Bottom is a little more flexible but it must always be appropriate for the situation!

Business Meeting - Business Outfit
Theater Performance - Professional and not eye catching in any way
Sports Game - Casual is ok, depending on where and what you are interpreting.

But one thing remains the same... When not interpreting we are free to express all the colors we want!!!

Make History Repeat Itself Every Day!

Ella Fitzgerald was not allowed to perform in Hollywood's most popular nightclub, The Mocambo, because of her race & body size. Marilyn Monroe, who was a big fan, called the owner and explained that if he booked Ella, she would be there every night, which guaranteed huge press coverage. He booked Ella and Marilyn was there, front table, every single night as promised. Ella said, "After that, I never had to play a small jazz club again. She was an unusual woman, a little ahead of her time, and she didn’t even know it.”

Real women support other women. ♥️💯
