It’s insane, just how many of these comments are linked to businesses. It’s unwanted advertising through a disability website. perhaps these people should consider paying for adverts through facebook or google!
In comparison to Makaton I think Auslan has evolved from the sign languages brought to Australia during the nineteenth century from Britain and Ireland. Its grammar and vocabulary is different from English. It is not the creation of any one person. It is a natural language that has developed over time.
