I really like how you explained the whole comparison with bsl vs sse, it help me understand a lot. Keep it up! :)

That's great, I'm glad you found it useful. Thanks!

Interesting.. BSL seems more efficient and compact.

Good luck with your course!

Are the signs themselves the same? But with different grammar, structure etc? I guess what I’m asking is would a BSL speaker understand an SSE speaker? (And vice versa)

@IamAhmedKhalifa

Yes, that would be correct. Same signs, just different structure

Cool! Thanks for answering :)

Can I use SSE in the beginning when having conversations with deaf people or would that be offensive or hard to understand or confusing?

I find that bsl is too confusing but I would like to learn more in sse

Keep at it. BSL would be more beneficial in the long-term.

Can you learn the bsl words separately and then use them in the order you speak the words in English? Or does it not make sense

Some aspect of it may be understandable and it is generally acceptable for those who are learning and are at a beginning stage of learning. But it's not technically BSL, nor is it grammatically correct.

Focus your energy on BSL instead

Why are there so many different sign languages for different countries? Like BSL, ASL. Why do we not have just one?🤔

Why are there so many different oral languages for different countries? Spanish, French, Italian. Why do we not have just one?

Just like spoken languages evolved and grew in different places (Latin changed into Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, ...) so did sign languages. Deaf people couldn't use those spoken languages and historically were seen as 'lesser' because of that, and they made their own languages where they lived. As 'lesser' they didn't travel all that often, and as such each sign language stayed in one place instead of branching out like spoken language. Deaf people taught other deaf children their local dialect and that was all they had, but it allowed for local communication. Spoken languages influence each other where they come into contact. Think of how many French words exist in the English language. Now that deaf people are not seen as less intelligent (usually) than speaking people their languages are gaining recognition and interacting and evolving. There are thousands of sign dialects all over the world. BSL is a general sign language made to make communication between deaf and hard hearing people easier within one country, but there are many different dialects all over the United Kingdom (and all other places)
