How do people who are deaf and mute communicate with the census subjects?

Introduce yourself. Hello: Point with your index finger and bend your thumb a few times.

My name is ......: Finger yourself with one hand, then clench a hollow fist, put the tiger's mouth on the side of your mouth to make a shout, and then make sign language for each letter of the name.

Please take care of yourself: spread your palms upwards and turn them flat to the side of your waist, just like a waiter invites customers to "please go this way" (this group of actions means "please"), open the five fingers of one hand and bend them a few times (this group of actions means "more"), raise your hands with your palms facing outwards and pat them a few times (this group of actions means "care, help").

Use polite language. Thank you: Thumb out with one hand and bend it twice.

No thanks: wave your hand, just like us ordinary people express "no" gestures.

Excuse me: Hold your fingers together in front of your forehead and salute, then extend your little finger and tap it on your chest a few times.

It doesn't matter: Twist your thumb, index and middle fingers a few times with one hand, then make a ring with the thumb and forefinger of both hands, and put the two rings together.

Digit. 0 is the thumb and index finger of one hand as a circle, and the other four fingers hold a hollow circle to cooperate These four numbers are the same as the gestures of our ordinary people, 3 is to hold the thumb and index finger with one hand, and extend the middle finger, ring finger and little finger, 6 is to hold the index finger, middle finger and ring finger with one hand, and extend the thumb and little finger, 7 is to pick up the thumb, index finger and middle finger with one hand, and hold the ring finger and little finger, 8 is to extend the thumb and index finger with one hand, hold the middle finger, ring finger and little finger, 9 is to bend the index finger with one hand and hold the remaining four fingers, and 10 is to hold the thumb with one hand, ring finger and little finger, stretch out the index finger and middle finger and cross, 20 is a sign language of 2, and then the corresponding finger bends a few times to indicate the decimal system, and so on.

Master the rules. You have to master the rules of sign language, the rules of sign language are pictograms, ideologies, popular, word combinations, when you use long sentences, as long as you remember the basic words, combine them, it is a complete sentence.

Look for teaching materials. You can also look for some sign language textbooks, such as "Chinese Sign Language", "Chinese Sign Language Daily Conversation", etc., or you can visit some forums for sign language enthusiasts online to learn basic sign language from them.

Practice diligently. You should practice sign language frequently, especially those that require a combination of gestures, to avoid incoherent movements in the process of communicating with deaf people, making them incomprehensible or ambiguous.

The origin of gestures is produced together with human society, and the emergence and development of gestures as a language is synchronized with the education of the deaf and mute. Before there were schools for the deaf and dumb, the simple image of the individual in society was not called sign language at all. The development of deaf education, the needs of teaching and the needs of the hearing-impaired have gradually increased the vocabulary of sign language and formed its speech rules, and then formed a language.

For a long time, some deaf educators at home and abroad have been paying attention to sign language, carried out theoretical and applied research, and published first-class and monographs. The linguistic value and status of sign language were proved from the form and content of sign language, and the ideological method of sign language composition (mosaic, ideological, indicative, borrowing, synthesis, etc.), word formation (roots, affixes), and syntax formation (the so-called "inverted sentences" and "omitted sentences") were preliminarily classified, summarized and sorted out, and the structural system of sign language was understood.

Shen Yulin summarized Chinese sign language into five ideographic methods in "A Comparative Analysis of Chinese Sign Language and American Sign Language Ideographic" ("Research on Special Education"), namely, friction, meaning, instruction, borrowing, and synthesis. Rubbing is the use of sign language to directly imitate the obvious appearance and shape of things, such as "bed, table, chair", etc.; Knowing means that some things that are not suitable for direct imitation or are more abstract, and using things related to such things to indirectly express the meaning of the word. Such as "milk, praise, tap water", etc.; Instructions are the use of fingers to directly point (point) to the things expressed, such as human organs, directions, names, etc.

Borrowing is to directly borrow the phonetics or glyphs of the spoken language, and express the meaning of the word by spelling the finger or imitating the glyph or the empty glyph of the book. Such as "Zhi, Mountain, Fine" and so on.

Cai Haozhong of Shanghai Institute of Education believes that sign language words include nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, numerals, adverbs, conjunctions, prepositions, particles, etc., but there are no quantifiers, no interjections, and there are many concomitant phenomena of words, sign language sentences have sentence components such as subject, predicate, object, definite, form, complement, subject-verb, active object, active complement and other sentence structures, and common characteristics such as object preposition, definite inversion, adverbial inversion, and omitted prepositions.

It depends on whether you can be dumb, if you can't, you can ask him to write. If he could write, it would be much easier. If not, it's good to use his ID card. Or talk to his relatives or friends. Let his relatives and friends communicate with him.

You can find someone who knows dumb language to participate in your work, or communicate in writing.
