I chose to learn BSL because I wanted to learn another language. The problem is that I don't know anyone else who knows it, which makes practicing a conversation difficult. Any suggestions please?

Hi guys, I had an idea for a sign language recognition app/platform, where sign language users can input and train their own signs easily and they can be recognised easily and accurately (assume this). What are your thoughts on this, its use-cases and the receptiveness of the community in using this?

I am aware that the NRCPD have accredited translation courses listed alongside their interpreting courses for BSL, often as a different pathway at the same place. I would like to hear from anyone who works as a BSL translator as opposed to an interpreter. When I look at the what jobs are out there related to BSL, I have yet to see any translation jobs listed that I recall. Can anyone enlighten me? Are they listed in specialist places? Is there much demand? Are translation jobs mainly done by deaf people, hearing people, a mix?

Hi all,

Hope it's ok to ask on here (please let me know if I've posted in the wrong place) - I'm looking for some clarification on the phrase "thanks for watching" i.e., that you might say at the end of a presentation.

Am I right in thinking it should be along the lines of "thank you"+"watch me" (directional verb "to watch" but pointed at myself)? Or is there a better way to phrase this?

Thanks in advance.
