r elementary education over a period of 10 or 12 years one of which uses lsl and signed latvian in instruction while the other uses spoken language 3 in both schools children primarily communicate amongst themselves in sign language 3 aside from the two specialist schools some schools exist which provide separate classes for dhi children while in the remaining schools dhi children learn alongside their peers with normal hearing 3 research edit latvian sign language is claimed to have separated from french sign language some time around 1806 citation needed mahoney 2017 conducted the first known 100 word swadesh woodward list comparison of latvian sign language and estonian sign language evk concluding that a possible relationship between them as descending from vlfs perhaps via ögs and or rsl as wittmann 1991 and bickford 2005 proposed was still uncertain as it is unclear how sign languages disseminated in eastern european countries during the soviet union but aside from superficial impressions that the core lexicons are similar signs with shared parameters displaying small variation in handshape while retaining 4 selected fingers suggests that these languages share a parent she added that a t present there is no reason to assume that estonian and latvian sign language have a mother daughter relationship 5 power et al 2020 conducted a large scale data study into the evolution and contemporary character of 76 of manual alphabets mas of sign languages concluding that latvian sign language s manual alphabet showed characteristics that were both typical of a postulated russian group including russian ukrainian bulgarian and estonian sign language as well as a postulated polish group including polish and lithuanian sign language and was therefore placed in
