It's an important distinction, so let's unpack it.
To check whether
#Makaton
is a natural
#language
like English or
#BritishSignLanguage
, let's ask a few questions:
@MaryOToole10

Are there any native signers of
#Makaton
? Is it possible for children to be born into a family that only or primarily uses Makaton to communicate in every possible scenario throughout their life?
