I have zero understanding why its not something that governments can provide through an online pre-recorded trainings, why is it so difficult to learn deaf sign languages to the point of most known practical way to do it is by getting a minor degree in it (most usually in education)? If anyone wondering which sign language, I’m interested in learning more than one if I find a feasible way to learn them so: American Sign Language/Black American Sign Language (dialect - both are used in the US and Canada), Brazilian Sign Language, British Sign Language, Catalan Sign Language, French Sign Language, Inuit Sign Language, Quebec Sign Language, Swedish Sign Language

    Connect with the local Deaf community. There’s likely a Facebook group or something that you can browse (even without an account). Look at local community classes, college courses, or even free classes held at a church. Our local community has a bi-weekly silent dinner at the mall and other events that hearing and Deaf people attend. I started with a local community center class ($50 for 8 weeks or whatever) and then found everything else through the instructor. I usually screenshot the silent dinner dates from the Facebook group and then attend when I can.
