Langue des Signes Française (LSF)
Langue des Signes Française (LSF) is the sign language used by the Deaf community in France. It has its own grammar and vocabulary, distinct from spoken French. LSF is a visual language that relies on hand shapes, facial expressions, and body movements to convey meaning, making it an essential tool for communication among Deaf individuals.
LSF is recognized as a legitimate language and is taught in schools and universities. It plays a crucial role in promoting accessibility and inclusion for Deaf people in society. Various organizations work to raise awareness about LSF and support its use in everyday life and education.
