People think sign language is about hands.
It’s actually about people, connection, culture, and making sure no one is left out of the conversation.
I don’t just interpret words. I help meaning find its way across.

Let your face do the talking.
Questions. Commands. Negation. Emotion.
All on the face.
Hands without expression?
That’s an unfinished sentence.

Interpreting isn’t word-for-word.
It’s meaning-for-meaning.
Tone. Intent. Context.
When done right, information stays accurate, fair, and accessible.
That’s not extra work.
That’s the job.

I had a wonderful opportunity to talk to some Finnish #SignLanguageInterpreting colleagues online this morning, discussing how our work has changed over time. There is still a lot to do, at pan-European level (EU & Council of Europe), & at national level.
Even if they can read #subtitles, those who use #SignLanguage don’t have any of the world’s spoken languages as their native #language.
