Contributing sentiments towards policy:

60% : Often, my preoccupation with language as the primary tool for expression has meant that in talking or writing about my emotions, I have held them at a distance.
59% : When I arrived on the second floor of a commercial building in Manhattan for my first sign-language class, a man took one look at my tentative posture and held up some fingers.
49% : Instead of saying "a dog jumped on my lap," for example, a signing storyteller might show you how big the dog was, the angle it approached from and whether it ran over from a distance or just clumsily plopped down.Letting go of the need for "precise" language, and the need to translate every signed sentence into an English one in my mind, was possible only after I embraced ASL's emotionality.
