I’ve seen a lot of fake sign language interpreters and I have never learned sign language but notice this guy. He’s very expressive. Is this real?

    I’ve only taken an ASL class at the high school level, but facial expression is an important part of signing and adds tone to what you’re saying, so that by itself isn’t really a red flag. He seems to be moving quickly through specific signs rather than just sort of flailing around like fake translators usually do. I can’t understand any of it, but if I had to guess I’d say he’s probably a real translator.
