DEAF CULTURE VS HEAR CULTURE:🧏

INTRODUCTION: 

deaf culture is very blunt and very bold

so if you're describing a person a deaf

person would you say in English

obviously you see that you're trying to

describe like maybe a little someone

that's a little bit overweight with dark

hair and maybe had like a mole on their

face and in English you'd be like oh

they're like Everett I with like

brownish hair and you try to avoid like

the things that maybe are considered

wrote in English the deaf culture and hearing culture difference . but in Deaf culture

it's not rude it's just what it is so

you'd say the bigger person over there

with the mole on their face you start

with the most distinguished features

about the person it's not rude and

that's how it is with the deaf culture and hearing culture 🤟

it's not rude next someone's being silly

or not understanding you can just say I

don't think you're understanding what

I'm trying to say you know what I mean

like so that's one just same thing with

the missionaries is actually it's a

benefit when you're earning so much name

is you can be very bold with what you're

saying 🗣️

DEAF CULTURE VS HEAR CULTURE:🧏

I'm here because I wanted to shoot

something that's very important to me

and my goal is for you to join the

church because that's exactly what I

want for you there my brother and sister

I don't want you to have this and that's

considered polite that's considered what

you're supposed to do in Deaf culture

you're supposed to be straight forward

with your intentions and clear with what

you're thinking and feeling and I

appreciate that about Deaf culture so

definitely don't get offended by their

boldness don't get intimidated speak

your mind🧠

Conversation:

don't be rude obviously but to be bold

audible brain pulled that's some um

don't apologize all the time for your

signing they know you're learning don't

make them feel like they're different

but also do your best to always let them

know the conversations that are going on

if you have a chance don't just ignore

them don't talk behind their back when

they're in their room and you're

speaking English when they know you know

DEAF CULTURE VS HEAR CULTURE:🧏

Language:

sign language and you could tell them

what's going on that's not very kind

either um sometimes they slip in the

background just because people don't

want to take the time to explain it but

at the same time it's like it's

courteous um but also

same time it's okay be like I'm tired of

interpreting and signing so I'm gonna

say Craig they understand that

COMMUNITY:

community how did that happen was that

like a natural progression or was there

some things that happened yeah it was I

mean it's the deaf community is a

community mainly of deaf people and

family children you probably hearing

children and so as a hearing person

coming into that community there's

there's no real justification for being

part of that community and so having a

role having a productive role to provide

a resource for that community is a

there's a useful mutually beneficial

thing yes and so you you pretty much

part of the deaf community shred away as

you start learning sign language because

you're obviously learning from a deaf

tutor who is part of the community

they're encouraging you to go out and

meet deaf people and deaf events deaf

club things like that occasionally but I

mean I see myself as the deaf community

DEAF CULTURE VS HEAR CULTURE:🧏

is more my community than anything else

I don't have any other groups a lot I

don't go to church I don't necessarily

are not part of a big corporate company

where there's a social collaborate like

that so as far as identity goes yeah you

know I've born in England of a Kiwi but

my community is the deaf community and

so I want to have a useful role in that

community which otherwise has much less

resources than the average community in

his own yes and do you find that the

deaf community you know because

obviously we're its with its we're

DESIGN SOCIETY:

DEAF CULTURE VS HEAR CULTURE:🧏

designed societies designed for spoken

communication rather than gesturing

communication rather than sign language

do you find that that means that it's in

some ways

satis quite close to the deaf community

and that perhaps they more kind of

function as a you know within them their

own community more

what are your thoughts on that yeah I

mean society as you said has designed

more for spoken languages that some

languages mainly just through knowledge

think but it's but it's true I think

because of their the deaf community has

had to provide its own resources yeah so

I think it's made the community quite

robust resilient quite creative

INFORMATION:

inventive so information becomes a

currency so if one person learned some

information they're gonna want to pass

that on I mean if you found a deaf

person that knows something of

importance and they didn't tell anybody

else they're kind of weird cult took

them to do whereas in the mainstream

society you know information is so

abundant that you don't really need to

part on anything else you want you to

pass on pictures of your lunch or there

are some things out there of less

importance yeah and so that you know

that the way society is structured I

think has affected the deaf community in

in frustrating and positive ways yes but

you know a deaf person might have a

different answer to that question

because they're living it rather than

just observing it yes well that's not

the elements you know it's sort of

obviously for you kind of being part of

both communities or you know being able

to be fluent in both languages one of

the things that considerations that you

might when you're communicating sign

language that you'd have to consider

DEAF CULTURE VS HEAR CULTURE:🧏

that you wouldn't consider both I

suppose positive that could be a

positive or negative but what are the

sort of things I'm just thinking sort of

you know even honest a really simplistic

level sort of you know just needing to

face someone which is quite different I

think often in English we can be you

know socially in the work context we can

actually be talking some which isn't

healthy at all we can you know be

INTERPRETING:

working on the imputed someone's talking

to us we're answering back without even

turning around which is not a good

practice but you know what would be the

things then you would sort of consider

then would change translating from one

to the other so there's a couple of

things there I mean one aspect is that

is access to information yeah so when

you're interpreting you can't assume

that a deaf person

has the same sort of general knowledge

that a hearing person might take for

granted because we're just swamped with

information written form on the internet

or newspapers or your phone overhearing

it on the bus friends at parties you

know there's there's information

DEAF CULTURE VS HEAR CULTURE:🧏

everywhere yes and you generally can't

help but pick it up because you can't

close your ears right yes but a deaf

person might not have had that

experience so it's when you're

interpreting and a hearing person is

saying something you're constantly

having to think okay is it likely that

the deaf person knows this and if not

then you need to do a quick little

explanation in some way so sometimes you

CULTURE MEDIATION:

don't depending on the context obviously

if it's a courtroom you don't because

it's much more literal in what you do

but generally we say part of our role is

cultural mediation and so if we just

interpreted like a machine which has

been a model of interpreting in the past

it's literally the word doing precise

with yeah so no context no sort of

semantics attachment yeah it wouldn't

necessarily make sense because if you

took the words of someone from one

culture and just transpose them into

your own culture you might get a vague

understanding of what it's about but you

may not understand all the subtext and

all the real meaning that's trying to be

expressed in that utterance right would

you be able to give an example of

perhaps a phrase or a word and then how

would you translate that into sign

language one common one might be the the

VOCAL RIGHT:

word oral for example it has come up a

few times so the term or also Oh are al

yeah in the hearing world is a fairly

benign term meaning vocal right so if

you give an oral submission to a select

committee yeah just means that you

you're talking to the committee you just

just not having anything written down

necessarily you're they're talking

face-to-face

but you use that word oral in deaf

context and it's got a whole load of

baggage around it because oral or

oralism was a whole form of education

for a hundred years from the late 1880s

through to about the mid seventies in

New Zealand which meant that deaf

children weren't allowed to sign in

schools all right so they had to learn

how to lip read and speak that's close

DEAF CULTURE VS HEAR CULTURE:🧏

to a hearing person as possible

Wow and so that had a massive impact on

their education because it's like so

much time to do that

EDUCATION:

and so I see some children are not able

to pick that up because it's gonna be

difficult to be able to to vocalize and

lip read a language as you're learning

it you mentioned trying to learn

Mandarin only from lip-reading and you'd

miss because if you didn't see someone's

you know executive life so fairly

oppressive very yeah I mean there are

some people that that it suited and and

liked it but the vast majority would

likely say that it was fairly horrific

time certainly for the language and the

culture so fortunately there were

residential schools in Auckland and

Christchurch and that's where the

language the sign language carried on

because as soon as that the teachers

were out the way the kids would still

sign to each other cuz it was just

easier obviously so that's how the

language maintained itself so you so if

someone was to say to a deaf person

oh we'll just you know government's open

they're very keen to hear your oral

submission if you just interpreted that

literally a deaf person might be quite

annoyed and so what I'm not gonna go and

OPPRESSING: 

speak verbally to a committee why would

they do that why they still oppressing

my language yes

so you might just change slightly that

the interpretation well you'd focus on

the meaning of what aural is but it's

not just the term oral yeah so you think

I go oral it actually means you can go

there and you can just silly because

this can be oral as well okay yeah have

to be yes vocal you know yes

DEAF CULTURE VS HEAR CULTURE:🧏

so I think that's amazing but that's the

general no I think that's a good example

absolutely
