Thinking of learning sign language....
I tried sign language on a whim in college and ended up loving it! It's really unique and fun to use. It ended up being my secondary focus on my degree. Also, Deaf people are always super happy whenever there is someone to speak with, even if you stumble through it they are always patient and try to help
Do you get to use it often? I'd imagine it's easy to forget how to sign if you don't keep practising, just like languages. Would be cool to learn it though!
Not nearly as much as I would like, luckily my partner knows it too though. So we are able to have some side conversations with it!
