Carlos SolísI wonder if <a href="https://hub.azkware.net/search?tag=SignLanguage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SignLanguage</span></a> has a concept of meter and rhyme like verbal languages do, and if so, would it be possible to accurately translate a poem from a verbal language and a sign language while keeping the cadence somehow?

"Sing" is a 1971 song written by #JoeRaposo for the children's television show Sesame Street as its #signatureSong. In 1973, it gained popularity when performed by #theCarpenters, a number 3 hit on the #Billboard Hot 100. Raposo was a staff songwriter for Sesame Street, and the song became one of the most popular on the program, sung in #English, #Spanish and #signLanguage. In its initial appearance, it was sung by the show's adult human cast members and #theMuppets.

🚨 'Sinners' Movie PSA 🚨

“Accessibility within streaming is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Our goal ... is to make these great stories accessible to all audiences in a way that is authentic to the content and the communities we serve ...”

'Sinners' will be streamed on Max in BASL (Black American Sign Language) - the first time a streaming service has ever done this.

'BASL is “a distinct dialect of American Sign Language (ASL) with its own dynamic history and unique grammar, signing space, rhythm, facial expressions and cultural nuances,” and "marks “a major step forward in accessibility, representation and visibility in streaming." '

Rather than finding it by accident, I went looking for info on Albanian sign language and found a few things. The language is relatively young.

Unfortunately my long-ago semester in ASL doesn't help me spot how related or not it is to ASL.

My youngest appears to have selective mutism. She often goes silent when she's hungry or emotionally distraught. Does anybody have suggestions as to some good resources for basic signing? I could also use some suggestions as to which signs are the most useful to learn. I'm thinking that if I can learn some, I can teach her as well, and it will really smooth things out when she's unable to speak.

Anyone feel like listening to some music that's joyful, buoyant and upbeat as we head into the weekend? Here's PJ Sin Suela for @npr's Tiny Desk. The proud Puerto Rican rapper, doctor and author exudes enthusiasm and smiles, accompanied by vocalists, flute, piano, trumpet, tenor sax, guitar, bass and more. PJ is the first artist to incorporate a sign language interpreter (Alexssa Hernández) into a Tiny Desk show. We're sharing this link with everyone we know.

True Biz by Sara Nović is about growing up as a teenager. The special thing about Nović's book is that she follows deaf teenagers through this difficult stage of their lives. She sensitively sheds light on the challenges that arise in a society that at best ignores you and at worst wants to get rid of you. More than is already the case as a young person.
