It's been a while since I last wrote about sign language, but some interesting YouTube videos by Alice (???) recently pulled me back into it.
Below is the video that I found most fascinating. It's subtitled in Chinese, but worth a watch even if you don't read Chinese. I'll sum up the main points in English below the video.
Before I list Alice's main points, I need to first explain some background. In the video, Alice discusses the Chinese sign language counterparts of the Chinese words ??? (literally, "deaf mute person") and ?? ("Deaf person"). The former is the most common way to refer to a Deaf person in Chinese, whereas the latter is the word many in the Chinese Deaf community wishes everyone would use. ?? is the word for "mute," and it's definitely not polite.
Alice's main points are: * The Deaf Chinese are used to using signs for "deaf-mute" (???) and "mute" (??) but these signs are not respectful to Deaf people. * Overseas, Deaf communities stopped using the expression "deaf-mute" 20 years ago, and only China persists. * It was foreigners that appreciated that within the character for deaf, "?," is the character ?, meaning "dragon," a traditional mythological protector being. That's pretty cool! * The traditional Chinese sign for "deaf-mute" (???) is loaded with negative connotations, but there is an international symbol for for "Deaf person" (??) that we should be using. * The word "deaf-mute" (???) should also be rejected because "deaf" and "mute" are two separate concepts; deaf does not have to mean unable to speak, and being unable to speak does not mean one must be deaf. * Some Deaf people believe basic, improvised signs are lowly and spoil the aesthetics of the language. This is wrong, because sign language is the language of the Deaf, developed by the Deaf, with its own grammar and special characteristics. * There are two kinds of sign language: literary sign language (????), used to reflect mainstream written language, and natural sign language (????), the everyday language of the Deaf. * Deaf people are not handicapped people (???). We have our own culture and language. Let's unite and improve ourselves. * The Chinese Deaf community needs to be bolder, to candidly discuss issues and to struggle together. * Remember, it's ??, not ???. Spread the word: ??.
I have to say, this video fascinated me. There's so much there, linguistically (not to mention that it was filmed next to a sushi conveyor belt, which is just damn cool). I think you can tell when a gifted orator makes a stirring speech in a foreign language, and this is the same feeling I get watching Alice deliver her message. It's inspiring.
My favorite part of the video is the stretch from 1:12 to 1:22. You can easily tell from Alice's facial expression that the sign for "deaf-mute" (???), which uses the pinky finger, is distasteful, and that one should use the index finger instead to say "Deaf person" (??). It's not just a matter of arbitrary signs, though. In Chinese sign language, the sign for "good" (?) is the "thumbs up" sign. The opposite of that is thumb in, pinky out. That's the sign for "bad" (??). So the meaning of the sign for "deaf-mute" is clear: "ears bad, mouth bad." Quite negative. The newer sign uses the index finger, drawing attention to the ear and mouth without disparaging it. You can watch Alice put down the negativity of the pinky finger and choose the index finger instead.
Check out Alice's other videos. Not all of them have Chinese subtitles, but one interesting one that does is an interview with Deaf rapper Signmark. Alice interviews him in international sign language.
I haven't watched them all, but it looks like none of Alice's videos to date have English subtitles. I'm working on convincing her that it would be worthwhile.

I discovered you by an accident I searched for Umbrella and I saw this video feauturing your song so I searched for your name and there is it I got stuck to all of your videos and songs. I'm one of your biggest fan. I told my friends about you then they became your fans. You're really great! I'll do anything to buy your album but for now I'll do anything to win your guitar.
