FOR ASL 3. In this unit, you have learned some of the most common mouth morphemes in ASL Aside
from these types of morphemes, which are an important element of ASL grammar,
consider how your ASL would be impacted if you mouthed English words as you signed in
ASL? How could it be problematic if a person mouthed every word while signing? Give
your opinion based also on what you have seen or learned from the Deaf community,
5. Consider two different settings or situations in which two or more Deaf people may be signing to each other such as in school, walking in the park, when asking for directions in a large city, or at a social event. Briefly explain the setting and the discuss how the behavior and social interactions of a Deaf person in that situation might be unique and/ or different from that of a hearing person in the same situation.

3.Regarding mouthing:

American Sign Language uses facial expressions, head tilts, shoulder raises, and mouth movements in grammatical ways (non-manual markers). If your mouth is busy mouthing English words it will be unavailable to use for grammar purposes.

It is true that many Deaf do mouth many of the words they sign. The appropriateness of mouthing depends on numerous factors. Some of those factors have to do with whether or not a sign is traditionally done with a specific mouth morpheme (for example: NOT-YET uses a slightly open mouth showing the tongue covering the lower teeth) or whether the sign is a multiple-meaning sign, (for example: single/someone/something/alone/only).

A high level of experience is required to know which signs require non-manual markers (NMMs), which signs have the option of being enhanced by which NMMs, and which signs can be mouthed. Many Hearing, ASL as a second language learners, mouth inappropriately by either overexaggerating their mouth movements.
