An Entity of Type: language, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org:8891

Northern Ireland Sign language (NISL) is a sign language used mainly by deaf people in Northern Ireland. NISL is described as being related to Irish Sign Language (ISL) at the syntactic level while the lexicon is based on British Sign Language (BSL) and American Sign Language (ASL). A number of practitioners see Northern Ireland Sign Language as a distinct and separate language from both BSL and ISL though "many 'Anglo-Irish' Northern Irish signers argue against the use of the acronym NISL and believe that while their variety is distinct, it is still a part of British Sign Language."

dbo:abstract
  • Northern Ireland Sign language (NISL) is a sign language used mainly by deaf people in Northern Ireland. NISL is described as being related to Irish Sign Language (ISL) at the syntactic level while the lexicon is based on British Sign Language (BSL) and American Sign Language (ASL). A number of practitioners see Northern Ireland Sign Language as a distinct and separate language from both BSL and ISL though "many 'Anglo-Irish' Northern Irish signers argue against the use of the acronym NISL and believe that while their variety is distinct, it is still a part of British Sign Language." As of March 2004 the British Government recognises only British Sign Language and Irish Sign Language as the official sign languages used in Northern Ireland. (en)
  • La langue des signes nord-irlandaise (NISL) (en anglais : Northern Ireland Sign Language) est la langue des signes utilisée par les personnes sourdes en Irlande du Nord. Elle est décrite comme étant apparentée à la langue des signes irlandaise d'un point de vue syntaxique mais plus proche des langues des signes britannique et américaine[réf. nécessaire] d'un point de vue lexical. Si un certain nombre de pratiquants considèrent effectivement la NSIL comme distincte des langues des signes irlandaise et britannique, d'autres y voient une simple variation de la langue des signes britannique. Le gouvernement britannique reconnaît les langues des signes irlandaise et britannique comme langues des signes officielles en Irlande du Nord depuis mars 2004 mais pas la langue des signes nord-irlandaise.
