Chiangmai Sign Language (also known as Old or Original Chiangmai Sign Language) is a deaf-community sign language of Thailand
that arose among deaf people who migrated to Chiangmai for work or family. Woodward (2003) found that it was 65% cognate with
Old Bangkok Sign Language, indicating that the two languages are related, possibly due to migration between Chiangmai and
Bangkok. There appear to be connections to sign languages of Vietnam, but the nature of these connections (whether areal or
genetic) has not been determined. Village sign languages of Thailand, such as Ban Khor Sign Language, are unrelated. The language
is moribund, with all speakers born before 1960. Younger generations have switched to Thai Sign Language. |
