My response to "Scotch on the Rocks"
What interest me most about the story "Scotch on the Rocks" is that everyone should not have a lot of drinks in a day especially if the person will drive home. I sometimes drink at least 1 or 2 beers and/or alcohol at a party I go to and drink soda or water the rest of the night. And have a friend drive my car or stay sleepover if I'am too drunk to drive
My Englishes
I some times use different English’s first, I use part of American Sign Language that is different than standard English I use American Sign Language because I am deaf and the deaf people cant speak or hear the Sign Language is use to the vision and hand moving so we can understand what other people says; secondly I use some short words so I don’t want to use long words, and third I sometimes communicate in Spanish and English at the same time to my family.
I sometimes use American Sign Language to communicate with my deaf friends. We communicate by using our hands and not using all the words the Standard English does some example when a person says “Hello what’s your name?” I sometimes using sign language like “Hello your name?” Some deaf people know where to fill out whats in between hello and your. Also there’s different ways deaf people communicate and I also communicate sometimes when I talk to people or using sign language.
Sometimes I use some short words when I am using the chat room or communicate with people. For example I use “see u l8r” for “see you later” or “tmw” for “tomorrow”. There’s a long list of short words I sometimes use or communicate with people include my friends or when I call relay service and the operator knows what to change in Standard English are.
Also sometimes I communicate with Spanish and English mix it up with my family who are Mexicans and my parents speak Mexican. When I talk to my sisters she use English signing and they use Spanish speaking and I communicate by using Spanish to my sister, brothers and parents. I am not good at speaking Spanish and I have help from my sister to using sign language in English and speaking Spanish.
Sometimes when I communicate with hearing people out like in stores or in a restaurant they don’t understand me so I was trying my best to make them understand by speaking more clearer and using my standard English than using American sign language, make it short or using mixed Spanish and English.
