Comment on How come in American classrooms they make another language an elective. Why not teach our kids as many languages possible that way if we go somewhere we will kind of have uper hand?

That would be good, and in line with Plains Sign Language’s legacy. It was created as a trade language and adopted by the deaf. That said, sign languages are living languages and without much mass communication in them they drift pretty hard and fast. All said Plains would be a really cool choice, but French Sign Language (LSF) would probably be the most practical choice.

So yeah, if everyone could agree on a sign language to learn, my deaf ass is in.
