There are often misconceptions(誤解) about sign language(手語), or a language that mainly uses manual(手動的) methods to communicate, due to a lack of education or exposure(曝光). One of the main misunderstandings about sign languages is that sign language is universal, or the same, for everyone around the world. However, just like spoken languages, sign language varies according to the people and culture who live in a particular region. For example, American Sign Language is used in America while Taiwanese Sign Language is used in Taiwan, both of which are completely different from each other. Another common misconception about sign languages is that they are simply a form of body language, such as hand gestures. However, linguists have shown that each sign language has its own grammar, vocabulary, and sentence structures, just like spoken languages. Even though some signs may look like common gestures, sign language is actually very complex and involves a combination of hand shapes, movement of the hands, arms, or body, and facial expressions.

人們常常對手語或語言存在誤解，主要使用人工方式進行溝通，由於缺乏教育或曝光。關於符號的主要誤解之一語言是手語對每個人來說都是普遍的或相同的世界各地。然而，就像口語一樣，手語因居住在特定地區的人和文化而異地區。例如，美國手語在美國使用而台灣手語在台灣使用，兩者都是彼此完全不同。另一個常見的誤解關於手語的原因在於它們只是肢體語言的一種形式，比如手勢。然而，語言學家已經表明，每個符號語言有自己的語法、詞彙和句子結構，就像口語一樣。儘管有些跡象可能看起來像常見的手勢，手語其實很複雜，涉及手的形狀、手的運動、手臂的組合，或身體和面部表情。
