BUT, he seems to be saying that Sicard was the first Deaf teacher -- Sicard was not Deaf, he was Hearing.Don G.www.deafhooddiscourses.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773546029227126724.post-83375307031925171252008-06-21T16:49:00.000-07:002008-06-21T16:49:00.000-07:00Hi,As an American Deaf person who is a Francophone...Hi,<BR/><BR/>As an American Deaf person who is a Francophone and who can understand some LSF, your series is positively enthralling for me! Keep it up and THANK YOU for sharing!!<BR/><BR/>I do have a couple of concerns about how you are representing last names and French names/words.<BR/><BR/>1. De l'Épée's last name is not Epee. It's like saying your last name is Kat. It leaves out a very important part - the z. It is necessary to include de l' when referring to Charles-Michel de l'Épée.<BR/><BR/>2. The accent marks are crucial. Without them, the word/name changes completely. You're leaving them out, and that's not good.<BR/><BR/>Aside from these two easily correctable things, I am LOVING your series. Thank you! I can't wait for more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773546029227126724.post-84092020856861969442008-06-21T09:38:00.000-07:002008-06-21T09:38:00.000-07:00I realized I wasn't clear about Berthier trying to...I realized I wasn't clear about Berthier trying to save the statue, I meant that he was sodedicated in collecting money from deaf people to build a statue of L'Epee.

Wow! <BR/><BR/>He said that Berthier was hearing so I watched it again and here it says at the video at 4:43. Is he hearing or deaf? Regardless of this, he must have been a hero as it is obvious that he really tried to save LSF and the statue of L'Epee, wow it is surprising that we don't know much about him which is rather unfortunate as he deserves to be in the limelight.deafmommienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773546029227126724.post-67691258533297387462008-06-21T09:18:00.000-07:002008-06-21T09:18:00.000-07:00DonG,You are correct that Bérthier wasdeaf.

That so angered Victor Hugo, author of Les Misérables that he shouted that the judge's mind was deaf -- "When<BR/>the mind hears" thereafter. Bérthier was a student at St. J.<BR/>(See Clerc's diary in Gallaudet's<BR/>archives).Jean Boutcherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05453552767797746706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773546029227126724.post-33106749721938183702008-06-21T08:58:00.000-07:002008-06-21T08:58:00.000-07:00I have no idea if the poster is sold out or availa...I have no idea if the poster is sold out or available. <BR/><BR/>Berthier hearing?

Guy Bouchauveau is a great signer. I almost understood him! The poster I fell in love with it and I am wondering if he still sells. If so, I would encourage him to do that. I am more than happy to buy one.<BR/><BR/>DeafchipDavidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08843913237044532178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773546029227126724.post-12729156979214301962008-06-21T04:21:00.000-07:002008-06-21T04:21:00.000-07:00What a beautiful art!
