Silent speech…

.
Carlo: And how was the
Diocletian Termini?
.
Antonio: Amazing, of course.
The structure, the sculptures, yes. But most impressive was a sign language
workshop.
.
Carlo: Inside?
.
Antonio: Upstairs. 25 deaf
people. All young. A leader was commenting on their individual performances
performed on video explaining the exhibits.
.
Carlo: In sign language?
.
Antonio: All in sign
language. The room was so quiet.
.
Carlo: Just the fluttering of
the hands?
.
Antonio: Very occasionally, a
voice, a laugh, a cough.

optional voice.
