I just realized there's a deaf person emoji 🧏. I never noticed it before since I didn't know the sign for "deaf person".
@2ck Looks like the old sign that basically shows 'deaf-mute'. Dutch sign language uses that too. But the universal sign nowadays is really tapping the ear once with a scout hand shape I've noticed. Or as I'd like to show to hearing people, tapping my ear twice and shrugging and shaking my head. Kinda hard to miss that one. ;)
@trinsec ah, cool. Yeah that makes sense. The emoji suggests the ASL sign for "deaf person" (https://www.handspeak.com/word/search/index.php?id=539 (handspeak.com is a really cool resource for me, learning ASL)). I'd like to learn other sign languages, buuut I'm having enough challenge just learning one. Do you know multiple sign languages? I'm curious how much overlap there is, practically.
