I just got article from someone's on post it is really interesting the Manila Bullets a few days ago. The one paragraph said

THE UNIQUE FILIPINO SIGN LANGUAGE

In 1907, the American Sign Language (ASL) was introduced to the Filipino deaf community through the School for the Deaf and Blind, now known as the Philippine School for the Deaf. ASL has since influenced FSL, the Filipino sign language.

“FSL is a unique language. It has its own grammar, structure, syntax, which is different from the spoken language. It’s also the mark of identity of deaf Filipinos,” explains Mackie Calbay, program coordinator of  DLS-CSB School of Deaf Education and Applied (SDEAS) Deaf Advocacy.

 

This is all what my points! It is part of applied in modified FSL's and!!! F.S.L is the BILINGUALISM and BICULTURALISM both SUCCESS. (FSL growth alike FLOWER!)
