Polish Sign Language
Polish Sign Language ("Polski Język Migowy", PJM) is the language of the Deaf community in Poland. Its lexicon and grammar are distinct from the Polish language, although there is a manually coded version of Polish known as System Językowo-Migowy (SJM, or Signed Polish), which is often used by interpreters on television and by teachers in schools.

Manual alphabet
Polish Sign Language uses a one-handed manual alphabet based on the alphabet used in Old French Sign Language. However, the language itself derives from German Sign Language.
gollark: What I would probably do is:- utterly refactor entire thing and do cool™ things like ECS- explicit change tracking in some way- just represent the entire game state as a big tree, and apply diffing to determine what needs to be saved- accursuously just put everything in SQLite
gollark: Sounds perfect and without flaw.
gollark: So... it isn't saved while they're there?
gollark: I should also not do this.
gollark: I should not.

^a Sign-language names reflect the region of origin. Natural sign languages are not related to the spoken language used in the same region. For example, French Sign Language originated in France, but is not related to French. Conversely, ASL and BSL both originated in English-speaking countries but are not related to each other; ASL however is related to French Sign Language.
