| I'm a musician and I studied ASL. When I see "CODA", I think one thing. When I see "Coda" or "coda", I think the other. | |

| Well, that's a wonderful thing... I'm sure many of the other viewers or potential viewers of this film who also are musicians who also studied ASL know that too. For the rest of us... (also, all due deference to the combo of your specific knowledge, but even still someone could just capitalize "coda" and not mean for it to be read as Child of Deaf Adult... but sure, let's assume no one would ever capitalize that if they don't mean it to be read that way... you still have the large number of audiences and potential audiences who might only know one of these two terms, let alone both) |

| The title is meant to be understood both ways, with the acronym being the foremost understanding. It’s reasonable to presume that the audience understands that CODA means Child of Deaf Adults, as it is a common phrase, and one used frequently during last year’s Oscars race, because Paul Raci is a CODA. | |

| Perhaps someday they will present the musical of CODA at the Muny (not the MUNY, which is not correct, but is often typed that way anyway) or the A.R.T. (not the A.r.t. or a.r.t.). | |
