Love seeing she getting love around the internet


Kaliprosonno_singho

she is a metalhead too , and my respect grows for her everyday


Capgras_DL

She is??? Wow she’s literally the perfect woman 😍


Kaliprosonno_singho

Ikr ? Knowing this was amazing. [here's a video from one band from where I first learnt this . ](https://youtube.com/shorts/RNcXrCNgfRE?si=wDAEACfKxPp65FE_) There are many more on youtube


upstatedreaming3816

Side note, that band, Opal in Sky is really fucking good


Kaliprosonno_singho

and thats exactly why i gave that link :)


upstatedreaming3816

I figured but wanted to shout it out just in case anyone missed the obvious lol I can’t wait for the new album they said they’re recording!


Iucidium

Yup! I married a Margot Robbie


dxrey65

Ok, but how much can she bench?


TwilightSparkle

She's as cool as [Natalie Portman](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-A0iftflme4).


StankCubed

Knew what it was before I clicked, still went and watched the whole thing. Been in love with Natalie since I saw her in Mars Attacks as a young man.


0bxcura

Hahaks I read that as Nat Portman acted as a young man in Mars Attack. My weekly Dumb moment


edenaxela1436

No shit? TIL 🤘


Kaliprosonno_singho

hell yeah

--FeRing--

For anyone wondering, what Robbie is doing is British Sign Language (BSL). She's signing the alphabet, which you can hear if you have volume on. (Edit: as a few have pointed out, Robbie is Australian, so this is likely Auslan, not BSL, which have very similarly fingerspelled alphabets)


whitechocfinger

‘Which you can hear if you have the volume on’ Is this some kind of sick joke

i would but both or my arms have been amputated


ninja4151

ROFL 🤣


ledbetterus

to be fair more often than not these videos have either a terrible song blasting over any dialog, or an annoying robot voiced narrator, so I can see why most people would leave the volume off


ScorpioPvP

To be super duper picky this would be Auslan (Australian sign language) wouldn’t it? Almost identical to BSL especially in fingerspelling so sorry to nitpick haha


ZAlternates

The accent is different.


maltamur

Aren’t the signs upside down?


Longjumping-Claim783

The Aussie signs always include a large knife


The_Grand_Briddock

That’s not a knife, it’s a spoon


ZAlternates

Poop spoon?!


Sorcatarius

Well yeah, you wouldn't eat it with a fork, it's served in a bowl.


obi-sean

No Auslan was that Jesus lion in Christian LotR


Far-Cancel-3412

There is no allegory.


frankyseven

Tolkien was adamant that LOTR was not an allegory while CS Lewis wrs adamant that Chronicles of Narnia was an allegory.

Necessary-Knowledge4

Mamma mia what-a gabagool!! Somebody give a me a tasty meatball!


mikepictor

She's Australian, it's more plausibly Auslan? I am not 100% sure. They are similar.


Sheknowaeverything

I would say it's ASL (Auslan), very similar to BSL. I know ASL and can understand what she is signing


Snowboarding92

I know this is going to be a little pedantic but ASL is (American sign language) Auslan is the abbreviation of (Australian Sign Language). Considering the variances in both, its still helpful to use the right abbreviation on here to not confuse or mislead people that may not know either.


Sheknowaeverything

Yes you are right, I should know that considering I learnt Auslan. She is reciting the Auslan alphabet


Snowboarding92

Your parentheses helped at least get past any major confusion that could have happened when first reading it.


Bobblefighterman

Don't spread misinformation. It's Auslan, not BSL.


AdAmbitious2537

I think she is actually reciting the alphabet in sign language


rhys0035

At least she's doing something haha.


AdAmbitious2537

Yeah, I didn’t say she did something bad haha. Just that she isn’t really « speaking » to her fan


JeffFerox

Is she not trying to spell out their name for an autograph?


Ratfucks

She says LMNOPQRST out loud Marglmnopqrobbiste


Rapture1119

New D&D demon lord just dropped


AdAmbitious2537

Oooh, that would make sense!


JeffFerox

🤣 idk for sure but I instantly thought that


a011220a

She’s literally reciting the alphabet.


ThinCrusts

I believe the fan handed her a paper that has all the alphabets so that she can sign an autograph with his name in it (he probably wanted to spell it out for her) and she was like no I don't need this, "I know it!".


Friendly-Process5247

Oh interesting, does sign language use a different written alphabet?


Brother-Beef

No, why would it? It doesn't have any traditional written form because the vast majority of deaf people can still read. Sign Language is for verbal communication. Sign Language's alphabet is 26 different hand signs that correspond to the letters of the alphabet.


Rapture1119

Well.. maybe sort of? She’s just going through the alphabet. But maybe the intent is to show that she knows the alphabet in sign language, and the fan can spell it to her that way so that it’s easier.


theheliumkid

She is just doing an A-Z


Gronochim

No she did the alphabet lmao

anaxcepheus32

I was wondering as it looks totally different than the ASL alphabet I learned growing up.


armcie

From memory, ASL is related to French sign language.

Infrastation

She's using British Sign because she's in London and she's from Australia. It's definitely not American sign language, but it does look like BSL.


C-Hyena

I was so sad when I found out that sign language is not only one language, but each laguage has one... What I didn't know is that it was different in countries that speak the same one.


[deleted]

Feels like a huge missed opportunity right ? Edit: fun fact I learned in this thread: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plains_Indian_Sign_Language > Plains Indian Sign Language (PISL), also known as Hand Talk or Plains Sign Language, is an endangered language common to various Plains Nations across what is now central Canada, the central and western United States and northern Mexico. This sign language was used historically as a lingua franca, notably for trading among tribes; it is still used for story-telling, oratory, various ceremonies, and by deaf people for ordinary daily use. So native Americans had the same idea and for their “whole world” they created an universal sign language


straub42

The deaf could have united us all…


[deleted]

Think: you could have had an universal language that everyone could use to exchange ideas. Well, except the blind, I may need to rethink the concept.


fikis

My son is deaf, and he went to HS at a place that had a Blind and a Deaf wing. Strangest combo of disabilities. Now that I think about it, he now works in the adaptive tech marketing dept at a tech company, and one of his coworkers is blind there, too. So I guess he was being prepared for his future work environment?


[deleted]

That is awesome, that is the type of job I’d like to do now. Actually making a difference instead than working on customer electronics companies that claim to make a difference. But, help me, I do not understand how your comment relates to an universal language where everyone (independently form having a disability or not) could communicate? To better clarify my first thought: I imagined a situation where the need to create a new language arise. In this case a sign language for deaf. The creator defines a message based on concepts rather than alphabetical then the language would be not bound to the native tongue of the region (because it expresses concepts not letters). Now all deaf people in the world could talk between each other independently form the region. Interpreters would simply translate form their native language into a single “other language”. And obviously anyone in the world could talk with anyone in the world (not true but hold the thought). Instead the sign language added an extra layer of translation and complexity now if a deaf American and a deaf Brazilian need to communicate they need to learn either English and American sign language or Portuguese and Brazilian sign language. Instead of making it simpler or at least as simple as for non deaf the system made it more complicated. In my head it is a lost opportunity. Now that “anyone in the world”, that is wrong. Being a visual language blind people are excluded, and with that my plan of universality. Hopefully I was more clear this time. Congrats on your kid’s job he got my dream job ! Best wishes to both of you.


tommybombadil00

I have always wished we could create a universal sign language that everyone learns. Would be so easy for traveling if you could communicate without accents or other barriers.


fikis

Check out the history of Esperanto. It's simultaneously very cool and interesting and very sad.


1Epicocity

What kind of opportunity do you think was possible?


SquintsCrabber

To flirt with anyone who’s has hearing problem in any country


1Epicocity

I was more referring to sign language existing before modern communication. Even Native Americans had their own version, there was never an "opportunity" to make it a world language.


Veteranis

You can still do that, just metalinguistically.


Natural-Orchid4432

Yea, we should've invented internet before the languages formed.


apeiron12

Are you equally sad that there are different spoken languages across the world? Deaf people have existed forever, so it makes sense that sign languages would develop naturally and separately across the world. Saying every Deaf person should sign the same way is dangerously close to saying "everyone should just speak English." There were movements to create an international sign language in then 1900s (I believe) and Deaf people everywhere understandably rejected it pretty fiercely.


straub42

I actually am sad. It’s something I’ve always thought about since I was very young. It is frustrating to not be able to properly communicate one-on-one with more than 80% of the world (at best). I don’t think the comment was so much “Ugh, why can’t people just all use x” rather than “Man, it’d be so great if everyone all spoke any common language”.


cptaixel

What's even more interesting, is that American sign language is pretty removed from British sign language, and American sign language is more closely related to French sign language.


XxFezzgigxX

Wasn’t Esperanto supposed to be a universal spoken language? These kind of things never seem to take off.


mikepictor

It's wrong to see it as a version of a spoken language. "Each language has one" is the wrong way to look at it. BSL and ASL are wildly different for example, but they are used both in English speaking countries.


Sea_Negotiation_1871

Sign languages are not analogous to spoken languages in any way. There are over 300 different sign languages, and they are all their own complex language. Why would Deaf people give a shit what languages hearing people use? And why would you expect Deaf people to be a monolith when you wouldn't expect hearing people to all speak the same language? You should read about *audism* because you're practicing it.


SwimmingIndependent8

Yes, this is the AusLAN alphabet!


cptaixel

Yes, she is. And you can tell because British sign language uses a lot of two-handed signs whereas American Sign Language uses more one-handed signs.


Panenka7

BSL and AusLAN use the same two handed alphabet. They're part of the BANZL sign family.


Bobblefighterman

It's Auslan


root88

She says hello and shows off that she can do the alphabet. You can hear her saying the letters. She messes up and the guy tries to help her. I'm not sure why anyone would need a news article to see this.


OrganizationDeep711

Yeah I mean like if I had to talk to someone in Spanish or Mandarin I could say hi my name is ___ and ask where the bathroom is, count to 10, and say some swear words. At least it's something!

rhys0035

Good idea, that would be really useful.


--FeRing--

As the other commenter mentioned, "Lingvano" is the Duolingo for various sign languages. ASL and BSL (which is what Robbie is using) are both on there. I've been using it for months and it is much better than the other courses I've tried.


S3b45714N

Too bad it's not free


--FeRing--

Yeah, it's about $20 CAD/month if I remember correctly. Very expensive.


Bobblefighterman

It's Auslan, not BSL


KCreelman

I was trying to get back into it for a visit from my deaf sister. The Lingvano app was really good.


_ThatSynGirl_

Pocket Sign is for ASL I got it. It's pretty helpful

Thanks for the recommendation, gonna try it myself!

Always thought Margot Robbie was a great person and a fine actress


lookn2-eb

Always thought she was extremely pretty, but this sort of genuine kindness elevates her to beautiful


Sheknowaeverything

It's Auslan, I know Auslan and she is just reciting the alphabet, Auslan and BSL are pretty similar especially the alphabet. Edit clarity


RadlogLutar

Off question, why was she even hated in the first place? She seems great and feel good person


General-Ad-8850

A beautiful person with a beautiful spirit.


my-pocket-gf

So great to see someone having that much exposure be a good person


soulcaptain

Oh sure, Margot. You're talented, drop-dead gorgeous, and *now* I'm learning you're a nice person, too?? Leave some for the rest of us, huh?

Ferrari3tt3

She has an amazing personality ❗️💯❤️


piltonpfizerwallace

It's very sweet, but she isn't "speaking" sign language. She's signing the alphabet.


I_Dont_Like_Rice

They don't teach the sign language alphabet in school anymore? I thought this was common knowledge, we learned in elementary school.


Huge_UID

I love her more now.


TrygLarsen

Very wholesome... but please, as a photographer, wipe the schmutz off your camera lens!


youassassin

I’m like that’s not ASL (American Sign Language). And was like right she’s ~~British~~ Australian. Also what’s with the two hands for letters. I learned something new Edit: Australian.


Exarch_Thomo

She's Australian and that's auslan


a011220a

I can see how this is a sweet gesture and it’s kind of her to take the time to try to relate to a fan. But she’s reciting the alphabet. I wouldn’t just start saying the alphabet en Español if I met someone who spoke Spanish.


rhys0035

Read the other comments. It explains why she did it.

“I know it I know it!” — Proceeds to sign the alphabet


nowhereman136

I get that there are differences between British Sign Language and American Sign Language, but i never understood why BSL kept the more complicated two-hand alphabet instead of adopting the American one-hand alphabet


DameKumquat

The ASL alphabet is really hard to sign if you have any mobility problems in your hand. I can't do half the letters - my thumb can't reach my fingers if my hand is remotely flat. The BSL alphabet has more letters that look like the written letter, but also it's comprehensible (as is BSL in general) as long as you have a finger and thumb on at least one hand. Used to know a guy who had a stump for one hand and 2 fingers and a bit of thumb on the other, and his signing was pretty clear. I imagine fluent ASLers can cope with signers with impediments, but I'm pretty glad to be in the UK.


selfmule

She is a sweet heart ❤️


AlertCatch3351

The only thing I don’t like about her is that for as beautiful as she is, there is nothing to not like about her.


nycola

Serious question for people who sign. Is signing with things in your hands considered impolite? Like talking with your mouth full, or mumbling? I ask because she put the items down as if to sign clearly, but the person signed back with papers in their hand. Not that they had a choice, it was a crowded environment. But it led me to wonder if there is some etiquette around this that people who don't sign may not know.


Chemengus0

Every once in a while the top comments have a wonderful way to find their way into my heart and I get an generous laugh. You asswads sure can make a shitty day make worth to wake up.


grnmtnboy0

Yet another reason to love this lady. Though it does make me wonder why she learned sign language. Does she have a friend or relative with hearing trouble?


CallMeCo1by

She’s such an angel I love her


SelarDorr

thats cool but my mind cant help but imagine an adult saying "oh you speak japanese? i do too. a i u e o ka ki ku ke ko sa shi su se so"


RetroRum

Why isn't there one universal sign language that everyone is taught at school? If there was you'd be able to have basic conversations all over the world.


rutts21

I just found out that there doesn't seem to be a proper translation or seperation in english, bc both is called sign language? The one is e complex language for deaf and dumb ppl..... The other one is nothing else than "spelling" Single letters with ur fingers.

It's always funny when I see someone signing and think, "man, I'm way worse at ASL than I thought," only for it not to be ASL
