@Pagen13 I'm almost fluent, so I'm pretty sure I can.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how many sign languages are there ?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Several. French and American sign are related, but British is completely different. Those are just a few to start, but there have been systems developed in many countries that predate globalization and international trade, so just about every major country has theor own.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wow Too many sign languages

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Well, ASL, if I recall, is like the 3rd most popular language in the USA. So they are also widely used languages.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Wait... how would someone help you with sign language over the internet? o.O Wouldn't you need to like be video chatting since it's basically a lot of hand movements? O.o

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

You can describe a lot of it, find pics, and there are existing videos for a lot.
