South African Sign Language

South African Sign Language is the primary sign language used by deaf people in South Africa. The South African government added a National Language Unit for South African Sign Language in 2001. SASL is not the only manual language used in South Africa but it is being promoted as the language to be used, although Deaf people in South Africa historically do not form a single group.
