Sign Language: One Size Doesn’t Fit All

Sign Language:  One Size Doesn’t Fit All

 
ASL (American Sign Language) is one of the most widely used languages in the US. Many people are not aware that there is no single version or universal dialect of sign language. Actually, there are more than 100 types of sign language.
 
While the US and the UK share English as a common spoken and written language, ASL and BSL (British Sign Language) vary greatly. The two languages are not even mutually intelligible.
