A Deaf Person and English Language in the Society
By: Rajiv Root
I was born in the world of “broken parts”. . .
I am profoundly deaf and
communications are challenging yet
I have excellent English skills.
People will see that I am capable of doing things like everyone else
English is the common language in the world and I am
grateful that my folks taught me English in the right way.
I can communicate with anyone and I do not view my
deafness as a disability.
I view myself like everyone else with same capabilities even though
enormous challenges do exist everywhere regardless of who we are!
