Can someone interpret what’s being said in sign language?

I came across this short video on YouTube where this guy does this challenge involving manure of sorts, and was curious to know what he’s saying here.

Sign The Beat!

Hi everyone! 💜 I’ve been working on a personal project called Sign the Beat, and I’m finally at a point where I feel comfortable sharing it and getting some outside feedback.

I love ASL, and I also love music, so I wanted to experiment with a way of bringing the two together for people who are learning.

Sign the Beat lets you choose a song, follow along with the lyrics, and tap highlighted words to see and practice the corresponding ASL signs. The idea isn't to suggest that songs can simply be translated word-for-word into ASL. I know ASL has its own grammar, structure, context, and culture. Instead, I want this to be a fun supplemental tool that encourages people to learn individual signs, practice, and hopefully become even more interested in ASL.

I’m still developing it, which is actually why I’m sharing it here. I would genuinely love feedback, especially from Deaf/HoH people, ASL signers, interpreters, students, and anyone involved in the community.

What feels useful? What doesn't? Is anything confusing? And most importantly, is there anything you think I should change or approach differently?

I’m completely open to constructive criticism. I want to build this with respect for the language and the community surrounding it, rather than assuming I already have everything figured out.

💜 Sign the Beat is free to try:

Any reading material?

So I’m learning asl and I cannot understand the sentence structure at all, every time I think I have it down I eventually realize “oh no this is not right.” So I’m wondering if there is anything I can read that is written in asl? If that makes sense? I hoping that if I read something written in the way it would be signed I could get a grip on the sentence structure.

ASL Beginning Tips

Hello! I am new to learning ASL and I was wondering if anyone had any tips and books they could suggest and an efficient way to study it because I can't afford to take classes on it.

I got a dog recently and he was born deaf so I've been practicing signs with him and so far he understands his name, "sit", "come here", "no" and "good boy". But other than that, if anyone could let me know some important things and rules about ASL that'd be great, I want to be able to communicate with my dog better.

Thank you!
