There are many different kinds of sign language for the deaf and hard of hearing.This makes it more difficult for the deaf to communicate with their peers across the world.There are some common signs used in most sign languages but they can be totally different from one another.
American sign language is done with one hand.This hand makes the english alphabets with fingers and a word is formed.The deaf communicate in this way by signing.
The Indians,British and Australians sign with both hands.This is called finger spelling
There are some gestures which are commonly used for words.Then you do not need to finger spell.
In this manner the deaf communicate with one another like any normal person.They laugh,joke,and communicate their feelings and sentiments to one another.
