Katrina asked me to pick a scripture from the Bible and then memorize it in ASL. I originally thought this was a good idea, but I realized that I could memorize the words, but I didn’t actually know which signs were which words and I had no idea how to figure that out. I knew what I should have been saying, but I didn’t know the actual words involved, which was disconcerting.
Side note: on jw.org, there is a video version of the Bible in ASL and that is how I knew which signs to use, even if I wasn’t entirely sure what each sign meant. There is even an jw.org ASL app, which has been very helpful.
