🧐 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...
Metaphor in Language / Internal Logic / Linguistic Patterns
If you're speaking English, or signing in ASL, you're likely often expressing yourself in metaphor, unbeknownst to you!
Have you ever noticed...
Compare the above metaphors embedded in ASL, with examples of ubiquitous English metaphors below:
TIME IS MONEY
-I can't spend more time with you!
-That's not worth the time
-I invested too much time in that relationship
ARGUMENT IS WAR
-I shot down his argument
-Her claim is indefensible
-He tried attacking my position
IDEAS ARE BUILDINGS
-He tore down that antiquated theory
-Let's build on that idea
What metaphors are embedded in YOUR "mother tongue"?

🌄☕️GM!
Long time, no see!
Today, we'll learn about an interesting aspect of, what I call, "internal logic" in ASL.
A little "cheat code" for learning...
So, sip some ☕️ + get your 🧠 ready...

If I find the answer, I'll pass it on!
(ah, yes- The interpreter on the 📺... I've been offered such interpreting assignments (emergency/health broadcasts), but never liked the idea of being on 📺. A few of my colleagues enjoy it, though)
Most of my interpreting experience is in Education HS/Uni, Healthcare (Hospitals, Psychiatric Facilities), Law Enforecement (police/investigations), social work visits, etc. - a dynamic career, for sure!

💯- I'm actually (voice) interpreting for a Deaf teacher right now + asked her if she knows why Americans developed a one-handed alphabet, being that LSQ is foundational to ASL...
She, too, is at a loss.
🤷♀️
Yes, the ASL alphabet uses just one hand; Others like French Sign, Australian Sign, etc use two hands simultaneously.
And yes- Things like the fun "artsy" play-with-signs/jokes will be affected if one becomes Captain Hook 🪝
Well... *some* of us are ambidextrous, so we could spare one hand (though, definitely optimal)
