💎 ABOUT SIGN LANGUAGE 💎
Sign language is a type of language that uses hand movements, facial expressions and body language to communicate. It is used predominantly by the deaf & the mute. But it is also used by some hearing people, most often families and relatives, and interpreters who enable the deaf & mute to communicate with wider communities.

💎 MISCONCEPTIONS 💎
Most people who hear think that signing is merely a manual representation of the spoken language which is not true. In fact, the spoken language and the language of the deaf have very little in common. Sign language has the complexity of the spoken language but it is independent from the latter. Another common misconception about sign language is that it universally intelligible which is of course not true. Same as spoken language, sign languages vary from one country to another.

🪧 Since sign language is a language of its own, finger spelling or the use of manual alphabet cannot be used as an alternative to signing. It is used in signing but only for words with an non-existent sign or when the sign is not known. In addition, it would take hours to communicate a few minute message through finger spelling.
