EAR&EYE

Today I was watching a movie on the history of deafness in ASL. And they mentioned that people who can hear live on a planet called EARth, and deaf people live on a planet called EYEth.
Because the population that can hear mostly depend on hearing, but for deaf people, it is sight that helps them.
I thought that was a pretty cool concept to think about and i liked the wordplay.

Japanese:
今日ASLでロウのいきしのエイガを見た。エイゴでEarthはチクウって言うの。(EARは耳のこと。)だから、耳は聞こえる人はEARthにすんでて、耳は聞こえない人はEYEthにすんでるって言ってた。(EYEは目のこと。)
だって、聞こえる人は耳をすっごくつかっていきてるし、耳は聞こえない人は目をつかうから。
おもしろい考え方だと思った。

-LOVE-
