This video explains the differences in sign language dialects and how those differences originated. The entire video is presented by a deaf blogger (with the exception of Tom Scott’s introduction), so you’re going to need to put on closed captioning. And life pro-tip, if you’re a fast reader you can double the speed of the video.
