Workshop Description:

Lisa Gelineau will present the workshop “COW-THAT: ASL Phraseology.” The translation for COW-THAT in English is “not too crazy about it” or “not my cup of tea.” ASL has a set of expressions and phrases used by native ASL users that often have no simple ASL to English translation equivalent. An ASL user’s choice of words and the manner in which they are blended subtly in the message may cause an interpreter to unconsciously overlook those expressions or skew the translation. The content of this workshop will assist participants in recognizing and mastering the challenge of accurately producing equivalent interpretations. For further assistance, contact AID Vice President Roberto Sandoval at [email protected].
