   Extractions: Medical American Sign Language Phrasebook American Sign Language is the most common language of Deaf Americans and Canadians. It is their native language, not merely a substitute for English words. In fact, many Deaf people are not fluent in written English and cannot simply write notes to communicate. Encounters with medical professionals require excellent communication, and Deaf patients may need to have a highly qualified professional interpreter present and in the US, they have a legal right to this at the medical provider's expense, if necessary to communicate effectively in the situation involved. On the other hand, there are many minor encounters where hearing and Deaf people will need to communicate. Scheduling an interpreter to be present for these would be impractical. It is a tremendous convenience for Deaf patients to be able to communicate in their native language in such situations. Many hearing people are interested in learning ASL. Movies like

16. Down Syndrome: Sign Language In Down Syndrome
    Article that discusses whether using sign language in Down Syndrome interferes with speech later?  
    http://www.tbinet.org/einstein-syndrome/development/sign_language.htm
    
    Extractions: I have been thinking about using sign language while talking to Ian Jack. I was wondering if this would be a problem with him learning to speak later. What are the opinions of those parents that use signing with their children? Does it interfere with speech later? The best way is to start with a child very early and address the oral-motor development, breathing issues, hearing, processing skills and nutrition, so that the child has the fundamentals for speech. ~Kay Ness Ginger answers: I can only tell you our experience. We were persuaded by a speech therapist to start using some signing with Carmen. She will use signs for words she knows and is capable of saying. It is most definitely a crutch, and I have seen her stop saying words once she had a sign. Now, when she pulls this with me, I hold her hands down and she says the words. Think long and hard before you start signing. This advice flies in the face of the advice you will get from any speech therapist!! Shari writes: I did not want my son to learn sign language. I thought he would rely on it instead of learning to talk. Our speech therapist convinced us this would not be the case, however, and we started learning a few signs. It worked wonderfully with Tristan. It enabled his speech. He was much less frustrated. If he couldn't grasp the word he wanted, he could use the sign, and viola, the word would pop out. He's nine now and hasn't used signs in a long time. Every now and then, though, we'll "play" with them.

18. MITECS: Primate Language
    Sue and Duane Rumbaugh argue the documentation of elementary language competence in species other than humans has significant implications for the understanding of the brain. Article includes a history of ape sign language research.  
    http://cognet.mit.edu/MITECS/Articles/savagerumbaugh.html
    
    Extractions: Curiosity regarding apes' capacity for language has a long history. From DARWIN 's nineteenth century postulations of both biological and psychological continuities between animals and humans, to the more recent discovery (Sibley and Ahlquist 1987) that chimpanzee (Pan) DNA is more similar to human than to gorilla (Gorilla) DNA, scientific findings have encouraged research into the language potential of apes. A recent report (Gannon et al. 1998) that the chimpanzee planum temporale is enlarged in the left hemisphere, with a humanlike pattern of Wernicke's brain language-area homolog, will provide additional impetus. That area is held basic to human language. Does, in fact, elaboration in the chimpanzee's planum temporale provide for language-relevant processes or potential? Is its elaboration an instance of homoplasy (convergent evolution)? Or is its function not necessarily related to language?
