In the hearing world, what is the equivalent of touching another person's hands when having an ASL conversation in
the Deaf community?
O covering a person's mouth while they are speaking
O telling the other person to "stop talking"
O interrupting someone's sentence
O asking the other person, "Can you repeat that?"

Respuesta :

Answer: Covering a persons mouth while speaking.

Explanation: The hands are extremely important for communication in the Deaf community. NEVER touch or hold the hands of a Deaf student who uses ASL to communicate. This is the equivalent of placing your hand over the mouth of a speaking child; Prolonged, sustained eye-contact is a key to communication among the Deaf.
