Oh! THAT!\nYeah, that was sooooo funny!\nHe first points to his eyes, as if saying that he will be watching him and then HE pounds his chest to say that HE is watching him. (Or the other way around...)\nIn other words if he messes up, he'll come and beat him up!\n\nYeah, it's not really sign language...\nIt’s more of a gesture.\n:-P

maybe you need to look at different places like Rochester or Galludet or any college or high school that teach sign language to find the sign language midterm. I'm in ASL III Class, so mid term should not be easy to do and find.

Mr. Spock's Vulcan Greeting - The sci-fi series STAR TREK/NBC/1966-69 introduced an alien character named Mr. Spock (Leonard Nimoy) who was the Science Officer onboard the starship USS Enterprise. On his home planet of Vulcan, they had a special greeting. It consisted of a right  hand raised (palm facing away) with ring finger and middle finger spread to form a "V" shape. The first person to speak said "Peace and long life" and the other responded "Live long and prosper." Both hand gesture and phrase were used for greeting as well as parting company. The Vulcan greeting first appeared on the episode No. 44 "Journey to Babel" which introduced Spock's parents, Sarek (Mark Lenard) and Amanda, (Jane Wyatt). "Live Long and Prosper" were also the final words spoken by Mr. Spock (Leonard Nimoy) before he died from radiation exposure in the movie Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982). When the Vulcans made initial contact with the human race in the motion picture First Contact (1996) the words "Live Long and Prosper" were the first words spoken as they exited their spacecraft. TRIVIA NOTE: The idea for the Vulcan hand sign on the series was contributed by Leonard Nimoy. The gesture (based on the Hebrew letter "Chim") dates back thousands of years as a special sign used by Hebrew priests during their religious ceremonies

A great site to check words out in sign language:\n\nhttp://commtechlab.msu.edu/sites/aslweb/browser.htm\n\nYou can look up the words in the index and they provide instructions on how to do them and are also shown how to do them through a quicktime video. Some of the words you may have to find synonyms for, as there is not a sign for every word.

The "ee" sound at the end is a diminutive. Diminutives are common in many different languages, so it was apparently developed early in the evolution of language.\n\nIn English, diminutives include words ending in -ey/-ie/-y, such as dearie, doggy, kitty, cookie, or any number of similar words. Such an ending slightly alters the meaning, generally to refer to something a little smaller in size. It may show that you like that thing.\n\nThere are diminutives in lots of other languages, too. In French, they use the ending "-ette", which carries over to English as well. In Scottish, diminutives are used much more frequently than in English, with the ending "-ie".

Ragnarok ("Doom of the Gods"), also called Gotterdammerung, means the end of the cosmos in Norse mythology. It will be preceded by Fimbulvetr, the winter of winters. Three such winters will follow each other with no summers in between. Conflicts and feuds will break out, even between families, and all morality will disappear. This is the beginning of the end.

I began learning American Sign Language my sophomore year in high school. My friend was having a surgery that would either fix his hearing, or make him deaf. It was a wonderful experience, learning the language. Now I use some simple baby signs with my toddler, and it has helped us communicate better.

Yes, there are many different sign languages. Signs that may make perfect sense in English can be bizarre in another. In particular, the different fingerspelling must be different for languages that do not use the Latin alphabet (Russian, Chinese, etc.) or that incorporate diacritics (French, German, etc). There are, in fact, many different sign languages used in the United States. There is for instance, Manually Coded English, a system of representing spoken English exactly in sign. One of the source below has a list of different sign languages, and information on many of them. There is also International Sign, also called Gestuno, International Sign Language and International Gesture. It is not a fully developed language like other nationality-specific sign languages (in fact it has no grammar), but was developed to enable deaf people from other countries to communicate with each other.

Yes, I've met a few. I always thought it was really amazing how they learnt to communicate with others. They use a form of sign language, like finger-spelling, but can you imagine how hard it must be to teach them the words and their meanings in the first place? Totally amazing people.

All I could think of was the Bushman language in backwoods Australia. I just remember they had a lot of clicks and noises from the movie "The Gods Must Be Crazy." If you don't have a limit on whether they are human languages or not, you can pick all kinds of animal languages, like dolphins or whales. See link below for more information on the Bushman language.
