Sign language is an integral part of the pedagogy of the hearing impaired, but other scientific disciplines are also devoted to it Deaf Studies, which has no tradition in our country. Its acceptance and use are implemented in international and national documents in the field of education, culture, and social affairs. Sign language also plays an important role in the identification of people with hearing impairment, and the current division into deaf people with capital N (Deaf) and deaf people with small n (deaf) is no longer satisfactory. The wider society’s awareness of bimodal bilingualism, the specifics of the Deaf community and culture, can contribute to positive changes in the perception of them, within the framework of social inclusion. The presented information is also a part of the culture of the Slovak Republic, a wider awareness of the majority is needed.
