I took ASL in college, nowadays I can still fingerspell and maybe sign a few other words or phrases - I can mostly remember the grammar and sentence structure too. But I gotta be lucky to string together even a fragmented conversation, at least until I can fluently whip out "I don't know how to sign" or "I don't know ASL" :lol:. I should probably brush up on it, maybe reach out to some old professors.

These two sites are good for looking up specific signs and syntax, they may also have some helpful resources on how to learn the language too. Hopefully this is of any guidance, but good luck regardless, hope you can learn it too!

English is my native language and it's the only one that I speak fluently, let alone use on a daily basis.

I can speak some French and I know enough that if you hand me a piece of paper and told me to read it to an audience, I can probably get the gist right, even if I don't know what the hell most of the words mean. I'm trying to learn it, given that it is important for me to be able to speak both languages if I want to enter federal politics at a high level.

I knew some Spanish phrases, but that's entirely due to one television program when I was a kid, and I know far less of it than I did then.

Finally, I would like to learn Plains Cree, because it is one of the indigenous languages spoken where I live, and I would like to see it become more widespread in day-to-day life.
