Hello all!

As some of you may have realised, commutating with deaf/mute in minecraft (often the latter) is rather difficult! So, here are some tips for communication in game 😛

1) Follow me!

In minecraft, jumping up and down in front of a player, then running in  a set direction, is commonly used as a way of asking you to follow them.

2) Yes!

Much like in real life, a yes in minecraft is made by nodding the characters head up, and down.

3) No!

A no in minecraft is normally expressed by shaking the head from side to side.

4) Allies? Friends?

The request to be allies or friends in game, is shown by crossing/bringing the sword across the players chest, often rapidly.

5) I dislike you!

This is often seen when swords are swung at a player, or arrows are shot. Sometimes, this way of communicating may result in the death of the disliked player.

6) Lol/ XD /hahahhhahahah

This array of emotions can be seen, when a player spams the shift key while jumping, possibly punching the air.

7) Place a block here

This is done by holding a block in your hand, and punching the area where you wish that block to be placed, by standing on it if available.

8) I’m a mute!

Most people should have picked up on this by now, but if they haven’t already gathered that you are a fool, simply hold a sign in your hand and smack those air blocks.

And there we go! My 8 tips on how to speak to the deaf/mute (often the latter).
