VI. Reading Comprehension
There are often misconceptions about sign language, or a language
that mainly uses manual methods to communicate, due to a lack of
education or exposure. One of the main misunderstandings about sign
languages is that sign language is universal, or the same, for everyone
around the world. However, just like spoken languages, sign language
varies according to the people and culture who live in a particular
region. For example, American Sign Language is used in America
while Taiwanese Sign Language is used in Taiwan, both of which are
completely different from each other. Another common misconception
about sign languages is that they are simply a form of body language,
such as hand gestures. However, linguists have shown that each sign
language has its own grammar, vocabulary, and sentence structures,
just like spoken languages. Even though some signs may look like
common gestures, sign language is actually very complex and
involves a combination of hand shapes, movement of the hands, arms,
or body, and facial expressions.
