Афсӯс, ман наметавонам ин матнро тарҷума кунам.

Hello,

I am a 3rd year student of public communication program at “Vytautas Magnus University” in Lithuania. At this current moment I am performing a journalistic practice within monthly publication “Akiratis”, designed for community with hearing difficulties. My objective is to prepare an article on the subject which globally explores people’s knowledge on deaf people, their culture and the use of sign language. This year in Lithuania, celebration takes place, as it’s the 20th anniversary of Lithuanian sign language, which has been legally recognized since 1995. Therefore, it would be much appreciated for taking a moment to fill out this questionnaire and also leaving short wishes for those who use sign language.

There are many symbols and finger signs, the meanings behind them we understand without words. However, it is not important if we understand sign language or we don’t, but we use plenty of its elements throughout our daily life.

For example, if we place a finger near our lips, everyone will know exactly what you are trying to say.

Thank you for your answers!
