do deaf/mute people recognize phonetic bilingual jokes?
I have a deaf friend who can read lips in two languages. As far as I am aware she can pick up humor of all kinds in both.
She knows ASL as well, but I don't think she knows any other dialect of sign language (is dialect the right term? I'm not actually sure).
Sign language in Brazil (Libras) is different from ASL.
I am sure there are false cognate signs among them, and dual users of both sign languages can appreciate them.
