Sign Language

I've always had an interest in learning sign language. The irony of sign language is that it's a language that shouts. At first, it seems to be very quiet. Your hands are doing all the signing so you don't have to use your voice. Essentially, there's no sound. Actually, when you sign, you are shouting. People standing fifty feet away that can see your hands can see you what you are saying. There's no way for you to whisper when you sign. It is constant shouting.
