If you can fingerspell you can communicate with any Deaf person - just spell out every word. \n\nWhen you fingerspell, your dominant hand (the one you write with) does most of the moving, and the subordinate hand forms the base positions.\n\nIn the video I'm fingerspelling with my left hand, so if you are right handed, you should do the signs mirror-image to me.\n\nTake care that you don't bend your fingers back unnaturally while fingerspelling. Make each letter smooth - for example, you don't need to shrug your shoulders or take a deep breath for each letter - work on allowing them to flow naturally.\n\nPractise fingerspelling the alphabet until you are confident with all the letters. A good way to help make your fingerspelling smooth is to spell out the lyrics to a favourite song.\n\nIt can seem incredibly cumbersome at first, but if you practise it, it will become smooth. Eventually, you may be able to spell fast enough that you can do it along with the song while it plays in real time. If you drive, practising fingerspelling at the traffic lights is a great habit!\n\nAlso practise reading back fingerspelling from a friend. Learning to read back words is actually harder than learning the letters in the first place.\n\nIt takes practise! Use context and what you know about your conversation to help you work out what the word might be.\n\nThis video is part of my free online Auslan course.

If you can fingerspell you can communicate with any Deaf person - just spell out every word. \n\nWhen you fingerspell, your dominant hand (the one you write with) does most of the moving, and the subordinate hand forms the base positions.\n\nIn the video I'm fingerspelling with my left hand, so if you are right handed, you should do the signs mirror-image to me.\n\nTake care that you don't bend your fingers back unnaturally while fingerspelling. Make each letter smooth - for example, you don't need to shrug your shoulders or take a deep breath for each letter - work on allowing them to flow naturally.\n\nPractise fingerspelling the alphabet until you are confident with all the letters. A good way to help make your fingerspelling smooth is to spell out the lyrics to a favourite song.\n\nIt can seem incredibly cumbersome at first, but if you practise it, it will become smooth. Eventually, you may be able to spell fast enough that you can do it along with the song while it plays in real time. If you drive, practising fingerspelling at the traffic lights is a great habit!\n\nAlso practise reading back fingerspelling from a friend. Learning to read back words is actually harder than learning the letters in the first place.\n\nIt takes practise!
