TRUE OR FALSE: Is Sign Language universal (the same in every country)?
The answer is FALSE.
Yeah, Singapore has its own Sign Language. It’s called Singapore Sign Language. In short form, it is SgSL, not SSL (Shanghainese Sign Language). There is no official definition, unlike ASL’s. We still wait for our national body to make announcement about its official definition. We had our community discussion in early 2019.
American Sign Language has its over 200 years of history. Our SgSL is established and developed since the early 1950s. It had its influences from SSL, ASL and SEE2 (Signing Exact English 2) because of national education policies and language policies. Now we develop our locally generated sign vocabulary for our local culture and food.
If you have anything to add in or to ask for further clarification, you can message me @deaflilygoh and the private chat is created for you. Will add you there. 🤟🏻

TRUE OR FALSE: If a deaf person is having difficulty understanding you, talking louder helps.
Thank you for participating the TRUE/FALSE quiz. The answer is FALSE.
Shouting at anyone is considered rude; talking louder to a deaf person is no different. Find other ways to communicate with the deaf; writing helps. Hmm, learning sign language could be fun, and it will bring you unique experiences when interacting with Deaf.
