(I also remember "cloud" and "community")
I need to find ways to practice Auslan.
I learnt a huge amount of it back in 1998, largely so that I could communicate with unexpected Deaf people I happened to come across. And that's fairly pointless if I don't ever practice it and thus end up in the situation I'm in now, where our conversation would be restricted to "man", "woman", "yes", "thanks", "fast", and "tomorrow".
Unfortunately, despite VicDeaf offering tutoring sessions on their website, whenever I try contacting them, they say "Hi! Come and do an eight-week course!" which is not what I want at all.
I'm thinking of checking out a church with deaf services, but does anyone else have suggestions?
The conversation's happening over at Dreamwidth. Feel free to comment there using OpenID. (
