Sign language

	Sign language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A sign language (also signed language) is a language which uses manual communication instead of sound to convey meaning - simultaneously combining handshapes, orientation and movement of the hands, arms or body, and facial expressions to fluidly express a speaker's thoughts.
		Sign languages develop in deaf communities, which can include interpreters and friends and families of deaf people as well as people who are deaf or hearing-impaired themselves.
		Sign languages are not simple pantomime, and they are not a visual rendition of a simplified version of any spoken language.

		The need for an international sign system was discussed at the first World Deaf Congress in 1951, when the WFD was formed.
