sign language is interesting in the sense that it can be useful for deaf patients and mute patients. the only problems with it are a) each country has different sign languages (american vs british has quite a few differences) b) it keeps changing every couple of years c) whilst its helpful to attend classes, sadly the classes spend way too much time teaching basics (what you cover in 4 hours can easily be covered in 50 minutes - 1 hour)

Yes I know, I wanted to learn the French one, but considering I'll probaly won't be leaving in here for long I'll probably go for the American one.
I assume you didn't learn by self teaching ? Because that's what I want to do

English, 3 dialects of Chinese fluently as well as a bit of Korean and Japanese. I also studied French and Spanish but it was only up to GCSE level so that doesn't count

Id love to know French sign language and see how different francais vs anglais is
Tbh, I wouldn't mind self teaching. Only problem is that in the uk the accreditation system requires to be taught and assessed vs self-taught. Additionally, I'm someone who remembers more if I have been taught self taught for practical things.

The thing is, I am bad at almost all practical things, but good with theory and analyzing things. That's why I learn languages easily but have gotten fired from some of most simple jobs.
