Semiotic (Deaf sign)

Semiotic is the study of signs and symbols and their use or interpretation.

I and my group (Ajeng,Kenneth, and Sarra) decided choose semiotic for deaf people.
we choose deaf sign because :

1. We want to motivate people who have disabilities (deaf people)
   and they are surrounding in our live until we found
   different communities turn out to be a normal condition
   
2. We want to learn more and understand their language a little better
3. We want socialize with them, to make them feel welcome

The original symbol of deafness

• It refers to a tight-knit cultural group of people whose primary language is sign

• Identified him/herself as a member of the Deaf community

Innovation Symbol of Deafness

• To identify themselves tha they are deaf people
  

• As a symbol of caring, protecting, and sharing
  

• As a symbol of unity, harmony between deaf people
  

• The hand represents the meaning of hand language

Before we talk more about sign of deaf people, we should know what is sign language?
Sign language is a language which uses communication, body language, and lip patterns instead of Sound.Combining hand shapes, orientation and movement of the hand, arms or body, and facial expression to express fluidly a speaker's thoughts.
Sign language of the deaf, some signs can meaningfully placed in the space ahead of the signer.
Such spatial uses of signs are an obligatory part of fluent grammatical signing, there is no parallel for this in vocally produced languages.
example of sign language for deaf people:

Alphabet sign

vocal Language (gesture and grammatical)

Conclusion

1. Sign language constitutes as a respected language and gives access to an international deaf community
2. Sign language also allows grater self esteem for the deaf and connects the world to them
3. Hope our improvement symbol can be exist for now and latter
4. Sign languages has developed as a language based on signs but each with unique meaning in deaf communities,which is made up of interpreters and friends and families of deaf people as well as the deaf (hard of hearing) themselves.
5. As of yet Sign language is not fully accepted as a semiotic sign globally, there is still great potential for it to grow and perhaps one day replace language all together to form a single global language.
