This workshop is intended for working interpreters wanting to improve their ASL
production. Workshop will review several grammatical features of ASL and learn
how to better handle these features linguistically. Topics will Include ASL
features such as; Topic/comment, interrogative questions, rhetorical questions,
group nouns, and discourse markers. Participants will also discuss how to
interpret with meaning and intent while leaving form behind and focusing on
function. Discussion of ASL grammar, linguistic and cultural intent, and

practice for lessons learned.
