But I can "speak" in American Sign Language. Not very well, but I can communicate with Deaf People. I learned that through community college and being engaged to a lovely deaf woman for two years.
Yeah, it didn''t work out. Let's not talk about that, unless you want to bring me to tears.
But ASL is a language to its own. Which is another topic altogether. I imagine many Hearing people do not even know that Deaf people have their own language barrier.

I'm useless at languages.
A smattering of french from school survives and an even small amount of german from college days..
Hell I even have problems with plain old English.
BSL is a pain and I really should try to learn it, or at least cued-speech ....
