Hi everyone! I’d like to give you a little introduction to what this space is going to be all about. Essentially, I will be posting one phrase per week in ASL. Part of the fun is that I am just learning this language. As suggested by the name, Sign Language for Lovers, I will only be posting loving phrases. The reason for this is that I was wondering what it would be like to only know how to say loving things in a language. Though realistically I know this would limit communication, and though I certainly plan to learn all I can in ASL, I thought at least for now I will allow this notion to inspire a project such as this.

So now for the first phrase…very, very basic, and you may already know it. But I think since it is the most basic of all loving things you could say to someone, it seems fitting to post it first:

I love you!
