I've updated the old ASLFL black, grey and red look and changed it to black, white, grey and blue! I think the new appearance gives it a fresh look.
More news, which is probably much more important to all of you, is that I've made new pages and updated the A Brief Page On Facial Expression page to include facial expression when marking the topic in a sentence.
The new pages include Role-Shifting, and Listing and Ranking/Birth Order.
Role-Shifting involves situations when you are discussing what you did for the day or for a day in the past, or what you have planned in the future. It's also important when telling a story!
Listing and Ranking/Birth Order is important when discussing family, perhaps your children and the ages they are at the time, as well as when you want to list things. In ASL, the word AND is not used. So, you would not say, "I love dogs and cats and birds." You would create a list using your hand, then list each one.
But, I don't believe I need to continue further on that in this post, because now you have a page to go to! Good luck and thanks for your support!

New Updates to ASL For Life Pages
Hello, everyone!
Note that there have been updates to the ASL for Life pages, particularly Questions in ASL and ASL Format: How it is Signed and Written. There have been changes and improvements made with inclusions of more information.
ASL is a constantly changing language. Note that some signs may always become old in the videos, and new signs arise. If a deaf or hard-of-hearing person shows you a new sign for something, be sure to use it and/or use that sign with that person due to their preferences!

Welcome To The ASL For Life Blog : About ASL For Life
Welcome to the American Sign Language for Life (ASLFL) blog. ASLFL began as a Facebook group. Now it has its' own blog.
It is for everyone, no matter if you're hearing, hard or hearing, or deaf. Not only can you learn about sign and deaf culture, but you can make some new friends. What People Don't Know
There are actually many people today who don't even know sign language exists, or do, but they don't know much about it. Many people think they don't have a social life, good jobs, a close bond with their families, etc. But this is not true. Many deaf people communicate with their families and others, and have good jobs. Deaf people are very capable of doing the things hearing people do, but most hearing people don't realize that.
What Is American Sign Language For Life's Mission?
ASLFL's mission is to help people everywhere learn about sign language and deaf culture, to open their minds and help them see things a different way. It is to help people learn that deaf people are capable of many things and to communicate and learn with each other so that people can have a better understanding of each other. ASLFL will hopefully become a fun group/blog to be in and communicate in.
What Will The Blog Posts And Facebook Group Have In Them?
Both the blog and facebook group will have videos, questions, information about sign and deaf culture, and communication between everyone who participates in the group and/or reads the blog.
Can We Use ASL Format When We Comment In The Facebook Group or Blog?
First, for those who don't know, ASL Format is the way american sign language is written. Yes, of course ASL Format is allowed, and there may be a post about ASL format in the future.
Thank you all for reading this, I hope you will continue to participate in American Sign Language For Life!
