Replying to Avatar ASL Terp + Teach

🧐 I don't know South African Sign Language, but I do notice a few similarities b/w it + ASL (ie signs like "to-look-forward [into the future]), as well as some ASL letters.

W/o being fluent in S.African Sign, I can only say the interpreter *looks* like she's keeping up w/ the source mssg (👍), and displays appropriate non-manual markers (facial expressions/shoulder shift/body mvmnts)-

You can compare it to this notorious fake South African "interpreter"- Even without knowing the language, you can see BIG differences b/w your video + this one...

Was that before or after he claimed to be schizophrenic? (Apparently, he was so distracted by the voices in his head, that he couldn't interpret accurately... you know how it is)😑
