Auslan or BANZSL (British, Australian, New Zealand Sign Language) is a sign language which originates from a deaf sign language used in Britain during the 19th Century. Contrary to a common belief, not all sign languages are the same. For example, ASL (American Sign Language) is very different to BSL (British Sign Language). Also, signed languages are not just word for word spoken language signed but they have their own syntax, grammar and word origins. Also, some countries actually have sign language as one of their official languages, for example: New Zealand.
I'm going to give you ten reasons to learn Auslan (the sign language in Australia).

During a recent cruise last February, there was a deaf community who were onboard. Most of the deaf people I spoke to (or attempted to use my limited Auslan on) were very animated and very good at expressing themselves (some were better than I am). They appreciated the fact that I learnt to finger sign in Auslan, which let them teach me some word-signs.

If you and a friend both learn Auslan, you can talk to each other discreetly and people* around you won't know what you're saying. *Unless there was a deaf person right next to you.

Most Australians (usually those who are only Irish or British in heritage) are monolingual, with English as their only language. Auslan is mainly sign by deaf people but some hearing people learn it. If everyone in Australia learnt Auslan, we would become a bilingual nation and there would be no threat of Auslan being restricted to the deaf.
