ive been thinking about what characters would know sign language, bc despite never being mentioned i can't imagine teyvat wouldn't have an equivalent version.

alhaitham (partially deaf/goes nonverbal) obviously and by extension kaveh (kinda hard to chew out your roommate when they cant understand you), but also collei (goes nonverbal when triggered) would have been taught by tighnari (who knows it bc its useful for communicating silently w other rangers)

#sagau #genshin sagau #genshin impact sagau #self aware genshin #self aware genshin impact #alhaitham #tighnari #kaveh #collei #albedo absolutely knows it as well (he taught klee when she saw him signing one day and thought it was neat)#klee signs when shes really excited bc she knows if she starts talking no one will understand her bc shes talking too fast #amber knows it (similar reasoning to tighnari but she also works w kids a lot. probably taught collei a bit of sl during her time in mond)#cyno (same reason as tighnari + amber and again. helps 2 communicate w collei)#diluc & kaeya know it (they learned it as kids and thought it was super cool. used it like a super secret language between the two of them)#diluc uses it more practically now but still goes nonverbal sometimes and kaeya just Knows and immediately switches to sl too #lisa + by extension razor (lisa would have prob learned it in sumeru like alhaitham and is trying to teach it to razor)#mostly to fill in gaps of words hes doesnt know yet. so if he wants to ask for something but doesnt know the word he can sign it instead #childe. which may be surprising. taught by skirk probably but only barely. just enough to get his point across when he goes nonverbal #bc hes absolutely traumatized by his time in the abyss and is not handling it well!!#honorable mentions r ei + miko + zl #yoimiya + yelan + yanfei #baizhu + noelle #me?? projecting onto the characters by making half of them go nonverbal for x reason????? yeah :)#if u see me adding tags look away!!!#n e way do you think there would be different versions of sl for each nation bc........#i mean teyvat only has one universal spoken language (paimon mentions it bc traveler had to learn it)#so would there even be multiple sign languages?????#maybe bc asl + bsl are different but.
