    Auslan Definition :
    Auslan is the language of the deaf community in Australia

    The name Auslan (from Australian sign language) was


    coined by Trevor Johnston, author of the first Auslan
    dictionary, in the early 1980s but the language itself is
    much older

    Auslan was recognised by the Australian government as a


    “community language other than English” and the preferred
    language of the Deaf community in policy statements in
    1987 and 1991.
