Have you seen any sign language videos? Each country's signs are different.

I went online to try to refresh my memory about sign language. If you don't type in American Sign Language (ASL)or Signing Exact English (SEE)(they aren't the same), you can get some really different signs from a variety of countries. On Youtube, there were two videos that I was very interested in. One is the 2010 Census one and the other is DrDongGCSUS explaining about the Census. The first one talks about why it's important and what it's about. The second one talks about the importance of writing ASL as your language if it is your language and how to avoid scammers. It's very interesting to watch different people sign similar and different words. Both videos have captions underneath so that you can understand the meaning of what they're signing. So did you know that different places have different signs? Have you watched any sign language videos on the internet? You can find both videos by searching 2010 Census and American Sign Language. You can try this, but I'm usually one letter off: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwK05DqDoc Do you do sign language? If you do, which type? If you don't, have you ever been interested in it? Have you seen it and where? Do you use speech, lip reading, writing, sign language, a communication board-picture or word or electronic, regular computer, modified computer, electronic laranx (spelling?), hearing, hearing aid, regular telephone, modified telephone, telephone relay service, or anything else to communicate? My husband uses residual hearing, hearing aids, lip reading, writing, and speech. He's hearing impaired. My brother uses residual hearing and lip reading. He is also hearing impaired. He refused to learn sign language. Then he went on a construction job and had to learn construction sign language. Otherwise, the equipment was too loud for anyone to hear directions. He is also hearing-impaired. I'm the only person with good hearing and the only person who learned some ASL and SEE (see above, I defined them). So with all the hearing impaired people in my family, I'm the only one that learned some sign and I keep forgetting it because no one signs with me. It would come in handy, sometimes, if the rest of them did.
