English has influenced American Sign Language (ASL) through borrowing of signs for English words, syntax, and idiomatic expressions. ASL users may incorporate fingerspelling for English words that do not have a corresponding sign, and sentence structure in ASL often mirrors that of English. However, ASL remains a distinct language with its own grammar and syntax.

How do you translate English sentences into asl sentences?
To translate English sentences into American Sign Language (ASL), you first need to understand the concepts being conveyed in the English sentence. Then, you would select signs and gestures in ASL that best represent those concepts, and arrange them in the proper order to form an ASL sentence. It's important to remember that ASL is a visual-gestural language with its own grammar structure distinct from English.
Where can you find an online American Sign Language translator?
I am not aware of a program that can interpret English text to ASL. There are programs that change the English word into an ASL sign but this is not ASL: what you get is series of signs in English word order, which is not ASL. ASL is not based on English grammar, structure; it has it's own grammar and structure. If you look at certain websites you can see how certain common phrases are signed.

AnswerYes it does make you bilingual because ASL is not English. It has its own grammar and rules. Pure ASL does not convey English; it conveys ASL, as it is a separate language in its own right. Therefore, you are technically bilingual if you know both English and ASL. ANSWER/FOOTNOTETo know both a sign language and a spoken language is to be technically considered a "bimodal bilingual" (spoken and signed are the "modes" to which "bimodal" refers).In some secondary schools, colleges, and universities in the U.S.A., students can offer (or study) ASL to meet a foreign language requirement.
