Gambian Sign Language is a national sign language used in Gambia by the deaf community there. The only school for deaf children in the Gambia, St John's School for the Deaf, was set up by a Catholic priest from Ireland. Dutch Sign Language was introduced to the school along with British Sign Language which developed into Gambian Sign Language, incorporating some indigenous gestures used by the general population. Unlike much of West Africa, American Sign Language was not introduced to the Gambia until much later so the deaf community is not familiar with American Sign Language. rdf:langString

A Língua de Sinais da Gâmbia (em Portugal: Língua Gestual da Gâmbia) é a língua de sinais (pt: língua gestual) usada pela comunidade surda da Gâmbia. Ao contrário do que se poderia pensar, as linguas gestuais ou de sinais, assim como as línguas orais, emergem naturalmente nas comunidades e mudam com o tempo e, portanto, não são universais. rdf:langString
