literature on sign language families (for example, some of the
discussion about sign languages in different parts of the world in the
Cambridge University Press volume edited by Diane Brentari,
2010), it is clear that there are some misunderstandings of the current
state of knowledge (which in itself is patchy) in the map, such as the
suggestion that BSL and Swedish Sign Language are related (not accurate,
as far as I am aware).<br clear="none"></div>
