British sign language or American Sing language?

Posted in sign language american | June 29th, 2009

I would like to learn sign languaje, but Im not sure what or where to learn it as I've been told that british sign languaje is different than american sign language, I would not like to waste my time or money.
Does this means that if I study it here, when I go back to the states:
Will I have to learn the a.s.l? Will the b.s.l be the same?
I need a solution, does anyone knows where can I study it either here in London or abroad in U.S.A?
What is the best way to learn it?

plus they can't be that different. the words are still signed the same they are just put together differently.

American, only because when people learn to speak english, they learn US version because it's universally accepted as how english is supposed to sound.

Only if you are planning to live and sign in europe would i reccomend british.
