Oh good lord, this website is AWESOME. I've been taking French in college lately, and I was looking about for French Sign Language, as I was wondering how different it was from American Sign Language... and I found this:

Check out "mouton" under 'vidéos', I find it SCREAMINGLY hilarious. It's much different from the ASL sign for "sheep"

Saints add preservatives to us! I don't know if I'd go out of my way to avoid using that sign or to use it every chance I possibly could.

Check out "autruche" or "amerique" or even "madonna"!!

I actually think some of the signs are exaggerated, anyway because they have to make sure it's clear enough for the watcher to understand.
