Conjunctions • One of the features ASL shares with English is the use of conjunctions to join simple sentences. Many students can’t stop signing in English word order because they feel “wedded” to these conjunctions: • i. e. and, but, because, although, however etc. • Most of these are not ASL signs. ASL conjunctions are like those listed in the next slide.

ASL Conjunctions • • WRONG (without warning, suddenly) FRUSTRATE (to be prevented from) HIT (unexpectedly, turned out that) FIND (find out that) HAPPEN (happened that) FINISH (then, completed) THINK+APPEAR (remember, recall) “UNDERSTAND” (however, but, although)
