British Sign Language
« on: 12:53:51, 06/10/06 »
Hi there, first of all introduce myself.

I am Miguel, from Spain and I just arrive to live in Manchester one month ago. Im 28 yo.

I am trying to learn BSL in Manchester, I would like to take a free course or maybe someone who knows the language can teach me. I can help you with Spanish or with a good frienship... just drop me a message and we can find out what we can do. Or maybe you know of a cheap place to learn BSL?. Thank you!.

Miguel

It's bound to be for deaf people 8)

Blind people couldn't see the signing unless you were to do it on the palm of their hands 8)

There's another type of sign language for deaf people. It's known by one word but I can't remember the name of the word. I think it begins with a P.
