If you are using this article because you cannot access your instructor’s answer key, here are three legitimate ways to check your 9.11 work:
In Unit 9.11, a major grammatical focus is using the phrase "DO YOU MIND?" or "IS IT OKAY?" Use classifiers to show object motion and placement
Responding to "You Mind":
Simply copying the answers from a key will harm your progress. In ASL, the way you sign is more important than the answer itself. Let’s break down the linguistic features of 9.11 you must master.
To help you prepare, here is a typical exam question your teacher might ask based on this section: Answer comprehension questions about a signed story
Prompt: Watch the video of Signer A and Signer B. Signer A asks for the post office. Signer B gives directions: "Go straight two blocks. Turn right at the school. Post office on the left." Signer A follows the directions but ends up at the police station.
Question: What did Signer B do wrong in the initial directions?
Correct Answer: Signer B should have said "Turn left at the school" or "Post office on the right." The landmark (school) is correct, but the turn direction is wrong.
Why this tests 9.11: It checks if you can track spatial information, notice a directional error, and mentally correct it.
Even with the answers in front of them, students get flagged for these errors:
| Mistake | Consequence | Correction | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Signing "LEFT TURN" without a classifier | Looks like Yoda from Star Wars ("Left turn, you will do") | Use CL:3 to show the vehicle’s path turning left | | Forgetting the negative headshake when correcting | The other signer thinks you are affirming the wrong direction | Shake head while signing NOT or WRONG | | Pointing to a real object (a wall) instead of using space | The other signer cannot follow your map | Use an imaginary flat space in front of you (tabletop perspective) | | Signing "LIBRARY" without indicating its location | Lacks spatial agreement | Sign LIBRARY, then point to an empty space (IX-there). That spot now means "library." |
