Some words to indicate purpose Here are some common signs that indicate purpose: Vocab: Will Won’t Can Can’t Want Don’t want Have Don’t have (here I demonstrate the handshape I’m using) Need Must Should Prefer Because Can’t be bothered (you’ll see that sometimes a whole English phrase is captured with a single sign) In the video I signed ‘prefer’ with several flicks. But really, it should be just two flicks. This video is part of my free online Auslan course. To access the entire course, and additional lessons that are not taught via video, please visit my website, https://helloasphyxia.wordpress.com/ To learn more about what it is really like to be Deaf, details about the Deaf community and how Auslan is used by Deaf people, read my book, Future Girl, https://tinyurl.com/yd27a39k
