The Language Sample Series is a collection of interviews with individuals who are d/Deaf or DeafBlind. In some instances, their language may have been impacted by the aging process, language deprivation, learning ASL as a second, third, or even fourth language, and possibly a combination of several factors. We are grateful to these individuals for sharing their language and their lives. These videos provide exposure to a wide range of linguistic variation and may be used by working interpreters and interpreting educators.
