A speaker of Finland-Swedish Sign Language, recorded in Finland

Finland-Swedish Sign Language (FinSSL) is a moribund sign language in Finland. It is now used only in private settings by older adults who attended the only Swedish school for the deaf in Finland (in Porvoo, Шаблон:Lang-sv), which was established in the mid-19th century by Carl Oscar Malm but closed in 1993.[1] Some 90 persons have it as their native language.[2] FinSSL is said to be a distinct language; however, "Finland-Swedish Deaf have few problems understanding Finnish signers".[3] There had been, moreover, continuous input from Swedish Sign Language over its history.
