Indonesian Sign Language or Bahasa Isyarat Indonesia (BISINDO) is any of several related deaf sign languages of Indonesia at least on the island of Java. It is based on American Sign Language (perhaps via Malaysian Sign Language) with local admixture in different cities. Although presented as a coherent language when advocating for recognition by the Indonesian government and use in education the varieties used in different cities may not be mutually intelligible.
