16 What is BSL? British Sign Language is a visual gestural language A language with its own structure and grammar Not only using the hands but facial expression and body language Has regional variations and is not the same all over the world

17 BSL A language that is open to all in a room There are ways to have private conversations Different styles and registers the same as spoken language e.g. formal, informal, theatrical, intimate, Remember BSL used to be a language that deaf people were taught to be ashamed of Now Deaf people are proud of their beautiful, rich language and is more acceptable Remember English is Deaf peoples second language, they may never have heard the spoken word

Don t understand Again Tips: Use questioning facial expression Within Deaf Culture you must interrupt straight away please do not wait until someone has finished.

42 Sign Name When people have mixed within the Deaf community for some time they can sometimes be given a sign name Sue instead of fingerspelling where is Anne they would use Anne s name sign instead They can be linked to physical features or habits that are easily recognised e.g. the sign Sue, this is because she has dimples when she smiles or lip-pattern linked to their name e.g. Lippett Within the Deaf Community lots of people us name signs rather than fingerspelling names
