Why ASL and not BSL?
Why ASL and not BSL?
ASL is much more similar to NGT. In particular, the alphabet (finger-spelling) is more alike. BSL has an alphabet where two hands are used for each letter. With ASL and NGT, one hand is used per letter. So, by learning ASL, you can also communicate reasonably well with deaf people in the Netherlands.
ASL: American sign language
BSL: British sign language
NGT: Dutch sign language
