That's not really the point. Its more like... if I had a 1/10th of a penny for every time someone said they'd learn sign language to talk to me, bill gates would be asking me how I made my success. When I stopped believing people would learn sign language for me, I had a new brand of people, after ...

As for the grammar, English doesn't have a lot of inflection (stuff like declensions, gender, plurals, tense, ...) and has very regular systems for plurals and tense, so you can hack together a bunch of words and as long as they're in close to the right order you should be understood. Has anyone re...

Caesius: If Hisao could stop and stare at Emi's legs, he shouldn't have needed to stop to mention "and Shizune pulled a PDA from her pocket, and after typing something on it he gave it to me. It said Just look around us: the sky, the city! And the fireworks are about to begin, too. ." If ...

I'd want to give Shizune the ability to hear, and the first piece of music that I would have her listen to would be an 8-minute vocal/melodic trance track - hopefully having her go from "hearing is dumb" to "hearing is awesome" in those 8 minutes. Or at the very least not "h...

And while I've heard somewhere around here that the game happens in 2007, technologically they are more likely around the early 1980's: no cellphones, no laptops, Hisao doesn't even wonder about owning a PC, no computer class. Hanako was disfigured by not having her burns treated with Gore-Tex whil...

You should consider offering to become an adviser of sorts to the dev team. I'm sure they don't have many (if any) people with the actual disabilities that the girls have giving them a realistic perspective of how they would handle their disabilities. Not that you should expect them to put a high em...

[unrelated]I've lived this world for 666 times (no hidden meaning for you dumb asses out there) and very single fucking time those god damned iranians bombed israel with A-bombs and FUCKING KILLED ME!! i hope this time will be different, well i did say that at all the other times still I wanna hope...

He said he went deaf after having acquired speech.

Although for those notes Shizune had, maybe Misha proofread them? That would also mean Misha "proofread" everything she's signing as she speaks, which isn't the case considering she has trouble interpreting "dis-in-gen-ious". Maybe a language is a wrong word. A completely alien ...

Wouldn't a deaf person be able to improve their English skills by reading a lot? Even comic books (which have a lot of dialog)? Would reading an alien language you've never heard spoken make you appreciate its intricacies? If it's impossible for humans to speak or hear the alien language, they woul...

Wouldn't a deaf person be able to improve their English skills by reading a lot? Even comic books (which have a lot of dialog)? Not really. I mean look at how many hearing people end up in high school and can barely write a coherent sentence. Deaf people are just like that too, except with a even l...

Misha's real first name can be interpreted as "not a name". About her nickname "Misha", I doubletaked when I saw her name because I'm used to seeing it as the diminutive form of the Russian male name "Mikhail". Russian names tend to sound effeminate to English speakers...

Especially if they're naturally gifted with language anyway, despite (ironically) being deaf.
