I learnt a few words of Dutch Sign Language, which I used with my baby (because they can sign at an earlier age than speak), such as drink, eat, ball and sleep. And everyone in the Netherlands still recalls the Covid press conferences, when people were hoarding up toilet paper, etc. The sign word for "hoarding" went viral! https://tenor.com/view/kaag-irma-gif-22168314

Why an incredibly large number of sign language polls? And they are all the same.

| Just a few words | Jun 2, 2025 |
Those I've picked up when openly (ensuring they knew I was) watching deaf people speaking on trains or anywhere else. That is aside from those I had learned from the Native Americans.

I never understood why people went out of their way to stock up on toilet rolls during covid.

| Used it a bit in Sunday School | Jun 2, 2025 |
Sign language is great to teach little ones songs with actions, and we often used them when teaching Sunday School. We also taught them signs such as for 'love', 'thank you', 'God', 'Jesus', and I still know these!
