if i were deaf... i would like it.... because then i could understand them and they would understand me
Deaf people may feel relieved and appreciative when a hearing person approaches them using sign language in public, as it shows effort to communicate and establish a connection across language barriers. It can also create a sense of inclusion and understanding for the deaf individual, leading to a positive interaction.
Everyone is different. It would depend on the person and on the context. In most cases, a friendly bit of conversation is always welcome.
No, when deaf people who can hear talk to hearing people, it does not necessarily imply that sign language is less important. Sign language is a crucial communication tool for many deaf individuals, and its importance is recognized and valued by the deaf community. The use of spoken language by some deaf individuals who can hear does not diminish the significance of sign language.
Anyone can learn sign language, but sign language is mostly associated with deaf and hard of hearing people which is their native language. (Although quite a few don't know sign language and learned language via oralism method.)
Sign language is primarily used by people who are deaf or hard of hearing as their primary mode of communication. It allows individuals to express thoughts, ideas, and emotions through a visual-manual modality rather than relying on auditory or spoken language. Additionally, sign language can also be used by hearing individuals who may have communication barriers, such as those with speech or developmental disabilities.
Deaf individuals may modify their signing when around hearing people to make it easier for the hearing person to understand or to avoid making the hearing person uncomfortable. They may also adjust their signing to match the communication needs of the hearing person, such as using more facial expressions or gestures to supplement their signs. It's a form of code-switching to facilitate communication across different language and cultural backgrounds.
By writing it down. Also understand that being deaf does not mean people can not speak.

Deaf people do not lose language, they can read just the same as a hearing person and can also lip read and sign. Also most deaf people can also speak a little too. However, if the person is deaf from birth it is harder to learn language.
A person or animal that is aurally challenged is deaf or hard of hearing. In humans, if hearing is not corrected with a hearing aide, the person usually communicates with sign language.

He speaks whatever his native language is, the same as a hearing man.If he was fortunate, he would have been taught a sign language in his childhood. Some deaf people are taught spoken language, which they perceive differently than hearing people.In some countries, deaf people are still treated as mentally ill and often not taught any language. If this is the case, the person would be non-verbal, and would have a thought process we verbal people can't understand.

Being able to speak vocally works OK when a deaf person is speaking TO a hearing person but when both people are deaf neither can hear what the other person is saying. Signing therefore enables communication between deaf people and would be a better way for a hearing person to say something TO a deaf person. If you can hear why don't you learn how to sign!
They do; if the hearing person knows ASL. If the hearing person does not know ASL, it really wouldn't make any sense for them to do so.
so that not only can they hear the person, if there hard of hearing they can also lip read if they have to or sign it (language). also old people may not be ale to travel as much this is a opportunity to speak to there family and friends.
Paranoia.
