Vocabs ROSSIO: Language codes: Valencian Sign Language

vsvValencian Sign Language

Valencian Sign Language (; ) is a sign language used by deaf people in the Valencian Community, Spain. Some linguists consider LSV, Spanish Sign Language (LSE) and Catalan Sign Language (LSC) as variants related to a language group, while others believe it is a dialect of the latter. The vocabulary of LSV is 72% similar to that of LSE, so some linguists maintain that the former is unique enough to have its own grammar, as is the case with Catalan Sign Language (LSC). Organisations like FESORD, which work with the hearing-impaired in Valencia have not yet expressed their views on this matter but they do refer to LSV as Llengua de Signes en la Comunitat Valenciana (Sign Language of the Community of Valencia). Valencia (which is the first Spanish autonomous community to support the use of sign language in the Statute of Autonomy), does not mention specifically which sign language is to be used officially. The use of LSV in Valencia has, however, diminished and is restricted to administrative communications and occasional usage in the media.
