I thought Gibbish was some kind of spoken language, no?

If you're from the Lord of the Rings, that might be counted as a spoken language

But no, it doesn't really count.

Dammit, I thought it was the sixteen century

is it, innit?

ASL. SEE is officially dead. I would care less if they think SEE is that educated. ASL is, in fact, is very educational and it is definitely, in no words to explain, beautiful yet strong language to ANYONE!

To any SEE signers, no offense. Don't take it to heart. Don't worry, I still respect your preference towards whichever you chose.

ASL! Period.

What about PSE?

Couple questions if you care to answer: Would it be better if there was only one global sign language ? Is there benefits of having different sign languages for different countries? How much the sign language of a particular country is linked to hearing language of the same country?

At the end what I am trying to figure out is, if there are good technical reasons for having more than one sign languages or if its a political issue like different countries wanted to have their own.

Thank you
Hermes

Signed langauges are linked to the spoken languages of the same country. Its not political. Its cultural.

I can't find my post. Maybe I dreamed that I posted it. I said I use ASL, but I think I'll be adding SEE, not because I think it's great, but because my parents will learn SEE, and they won't learn ASL. I'll probably use mostly PSE and some ASL with my sister, and a mix of PSE and SEE with my mom, and SEE with my dad. Seems weird, but I have my reasons =D It's because of their personalities. My dad would get confused with PSE. My mom doesn't wanna wait until she's 80 before she's fluent, but she's really intelligent. My sister already knows some ASL, but tends to sign in PSE when it suits her. I'll use Live Messenger and Google Talk with everybody else.
