\"American<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There are two main versions of sign language used in Canada; American Sign Language (ASL) and Quebec Sign Language (LSQ). Sign language is often the primary, or first, language for people with a significant hearing loss. ASL\/LSQ have a different grammar structure to standard English as well as a reduced vocabulary and hence can impact on the reading and writing of standard English for some users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When booking and using an ASL\/LSQ interpreter, it is important to ensure that the person is appropriately qualified and operates at a good standard. Poor interpretation can impact on performance. Interpreters will need breaks during long meetings and often two are required to take over from each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
