14.For many years,no one could communicate with people who had been born without hearing.These deaf people were not able to use a spoken language.But,beginning in the 1700s,the deaf were taught a special language.Using this language,they could share thoughts and ideas with others.The language they used was a language with out sound.It was a sign language.
How did this sign language work?The deaf were taught to make certain movements using their hands,faces,and bodies.These movements stood for things and ideas.People might move their forefingers across their lips.This meant,"You are not telling the truth."They might tap their chins with three fingers.This meant"my uncle".
