Czech Sign Language, also Slovakian Sign Language, is the sign language of the deaf community in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. It presumably emerged around the time of the first deaf school in 1786. It belongs to the French sign-language family and is partially intelligible with French sign language.[1]
