What Should I Wear Ina Tornado

signs are international or local ...

In previous post we dimostarto that there is no international sign language, and although they belong to different regions or cities deaf Italian easily and quickly able to understand each other despite differences in dialect.
The groups with the largest number of variations are the days of the week, months of the year, colors and nouns are not frequent.

Some examples:
>> Let's see how in many Italian cities they say the word "yellow":
>> The same sign can have completely different meanings in different languages signs, we see the sample below:

Nell'immagine a sinistra il gesto significa "Roma" in Lis mentre nell'immagine a destra significa "nome" in Asl

>> Uno stesso significato viene espresso in modo diverso nelle varie lingue, vediamo le diversità del segno per “mamma”:

Nel primo caso la parola "mamma" è detta in Lingua dei segni Danese, nel secondo caso Lingua dei segni Italiana, successivamente Lingua dei segni Cinese e infine Americana.

In your opinion, all these differences between nations or cities are caused by some specific factors?

brief history of language through signs ...

"... hands that move safer and sent into the air,
taking shape and appearance,
painted figures that seem invisible and occupy spaces,
changing faces, marked by a thousand words, eyes wide open,
s empre alert and attentive ... "
Returning to address issues related to sign language I think is interesting and essential to address a short historical excursus to come then to see some curiosity.

The gestural communication of deaf people has been known since antiquity, but is beginning to be studied from a linguistic point of view only since the '60s. The researcher William Stokoe was the first to demonstrate that this form of communication is not a simple gesture, but a true language , a visual language with its own vocabulary and its grammar, able to express any message.

One of the most common clichés continues to be the belief that it can be universal. As with oral languages, sign language, in reality, it differs from country to country and within each country can still find various dialectal forms.
spoken thus: Langue des Signes Français
(LSF)
American Sign Language (ASL)
Brithis Sign Language (BSL)
Italian Sign Language (LIS), etc. ..

curious attempt by the World Federation of the Deaf who in 1975 published a book "Gestuno" containing a list of signs "international". The goal was to create a sort of sign language shared global use in meetings and exchanges international.
Subsequently the use of sign language in education was finally banned. This meant that the signs, in Italy, not only differ from region to region but from city to city and even from school to school where the children used sign language in secret during breaks in their dormitories or at home (in the case of deaf parents or relatives).
Only in the last thirty years' in Italy recommenced studies of sign language, deaf people have begun to recover consapevolezzache that theirs is a real language through which they can interact with each other, communicate intentions and emotions, and transmit culture, knowledge, values \u200b\u200band art from generation to generation.

How To Program A Remote For Emerson Ewf2006

The strength of a family and a child full of desire! The

As you all know, these days, as every year on television are raising funds for Telethon. A 'to help the less fortunate people, usually children.
I would like to take this opportunity to open a small parenthesis in my blog and talk to Frank, a child with serious problems that have arisen as a result of complications during childbirth.
This child is currently in California to attend the special care. Frank's mother has made many appeals, including on television, asking for aid is involved from all of us so that this child could undergo therapies that are only abroad.
responded to these calls by many people and even my small town where his grandparents live in St. Francis.
Unfortunately I have not had the opportunity to personally meet this wonderful boy but my parents and other acquaintances said they were surprised by how much a simple smile of this child we have made happy. Francis does not speak, not moving, not eating (an almost vegetative state) until a few months ago and responded with small sounds, looks and smiles only to caressing mother that she has always been close.
Today, as I said earlier, is in California where he is following the specific treatments that have allowed small to make strides. The small hours unable to eat (the swallowing problems were mitigated), is able even to sit for several minutes, holding up the skull and many other achievements.
Parents are very happy, hopeful but also concerned about possible repercussions. The love of these parents is enormous, given the many "adventures" that have and are facing daily. The mother of Francis
site http://www.superfrancesco.it/ updated daily, in a sort of diary, improvements, they are experiencing difficult times.
Every so often I stop to read these extraordinary remains strong with admiration. The strength of this family is amazing.
I hope to have the opportunity to meet in a few months when this baby will be back in Italy. I only had a little experience last year in a community of boys and men with disabilities or carrier of some disease and was fascinated by love, joy broadcasting.
Unfortunately, sometimes you forget they were "very fortunate", or are remembered only occasionally. If any of you want to know the experience of Francis visit the site I mentioned before ... It is the pain! You will find the story of this child, his achievements, difficult times, many photos and video.

I propose in this post some photos of this .. In a sample of which you see the time when it failed for the first time (even if supported by the support of the sofa) to sit for a few minutes ... Superfrancesco Force! !

technology helps or hinders the communication?

In the previous post I wanted to emphasize the importance of a look, a smile ... Which I can often convey much more than just words ...

But do not you think that maybe now, this is hampered by the new media? think of using mobile phones, or chat?
I am tied to this new medium, like most young i, and frankly I would struggle to imagine life without ... Today you can hear any person anywhere but when you are face-to- face "with it ..." all falls down "... it feels a little awkward at times ... especially if it is a person who sees and knows very little.
I think the phone or chat rooms are very useful resources on the one hand but at the same time "obscure" some features of Communication. These new media can "mask" with ease what you feel or think and have time to question ...

currently participating in a sustained debate about 'usefulness and risks that could lead to the' use of cell phones, chat in the development of the person.
In this form of debate I think that there are two very different extremes.
one side lie those who defend the use of mobile phones or instant messaging because they believe that these means can not in any way be considered a barrier. According to this view "digital communication does not replace the relationships between people but rather it increases the breadth and makes ongoing communication and harmony."
the other extreme are those who are hostile to the use of such means. In this' perspective highlights the negative aspects that are related to the use of means such as mobile phones, chat, etc. .. It is believed that "Cell phones are bad," producing an endless list of damage they cause to health: they emit radiation that can continuously be harmful to humans. Can cause memory loss, headaches, mutations in the DNA even cancer etc etc ... In this context arises the question: "Would not it be better to give an appointment to see each other in person?"

I personally think that they are two extremist views. The truth lies somewhere in between. What do you think?
