What is American Sign Language?
American Sign Language, or ASL, is a naturally developed, visual language that is predominantly used by the Deaf community. Hand shapes, movements, as well as facial expression and non-manual cues are all communicated visually. ASL is not universal and is unique to America.

Why Learn American Sign Language?
