Signed Language has nothing to do with the trope of [[Talking with Signs]] which involves characters communicating via signs.

Especially within fantasy works, it is not uncommon to have races or nations where Hand Signals have evolved into a Signed Language, typically to provide a method to communicate in secrecy.
