Encyclopedia > Malaysian Sign Language

Malaysian Sign Language (MSL), or Bahasa Isyarat Malaysia (BIM), is the sign language in every day use in many parts of Malaysia. Bahasa Isyarat Malaysia literally translates as Language Sign Malaysia.


MSL has many dialects, differing from state to state.


American Sign Language (ASL) has had a strong influence on MSL, but the two are different enough to be considered seperate languages.


Other sign languages in use in Malaysia are Penang Sign Language (PSL), Selangor Sign Language (SSL or KLSL), and Kod Tangan Bahasa Malaysia or Manually Coded Malay (KTBM), and Chinese Sign Languages.
