Have a question?
Does American Sign Language (ASL) rely on word-by-word interpretation, similar to spoken language?

ASL utilizes signs, facial expressions, and body language to express thoughts and ideas more holistically.
What is the primary rule to adhere to when incorporating American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation into events or live streaming?
The paramount rule for ASL interpretation in events or live streaming is to ensure that the interpreter is clearly visible on the screen or stage, allowing Deaf or hard of hearing viewers to have a direct and unobstructed view of the interpretation. This promotes accessibility and a seamless communication experience.
What is the significance of American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation in various contexts?
ASL interpretation is essential as it facilitates effective communication for Deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals, enabling them to access information, engage in conversations, and participate in various activities on an equal basis with hearing individuals. It promotes inclusivity and ensures that no one is left behind in the communication process.
How does translation in American Sign Language (ASL) differ from interpretation?
