Sign Language is a visual means of communication that uses hand shapes, facial expressions, and body movements to convey meaning. It is primarily used by the deaf and hard of hearing communities, allowing them to communicate effectively without spoken words. Different regions have their own unique sign languages, such as American Sign Language (ASL) and British Sign Language (BSL). Sign language is not universal; each country or region may have its own distinct version. It encompasses grammar and vocabulary just like spoken languages, making it a fully developed language system. Learning sign language can foster better communication and understanding between hearing and deaf individuals.
