So it is safe to say that this game teaches only Japanese sign language? Darn, and I wanted to learn with him. ^^;

Sign languages do not depend on spoken languages. I think there is one recognized international sign language that may be the one that is used.
I believe I have recognized the word "cat" in all the signs: a mime of the cat's mustaches.
The real sign that someone has become a fanatic is that he completely loses his sense of humor about some important facet of his life. When humor goes, it means he's lost his perspective.

I don't think there is only one sign language. Here in Québec we use our own, which is "langue des signes québécoise" or LSQ as they call it. But maybe some signs are similar, just like some words sound the same from one language to another.

There's an International Sign Language, but individual countries have their own too.

Ooops! Sorry, I misread you fafner. I left out "that may be the one". I guess the horizontal scrolling bar made me lazy. :unsure:
