Cyprus or Cypriot Sign Language (Greek: Κυπριακή Νοηματική Γλώσσα, romanizedKypriakí Noimatikí Glóssa) is an incipient sign language of Cyprus. It appears to be a pidgin of American Sign Language and Greek Sign Language, not yet a fully developed language. The Greek Cypriot deaf community predominantly uses the Greek Sign Language.[1]
