Albarradas Sign Language, also known as Didxa ná’,[1] is an indigenous village sign language of Mexico.[2] It arose approximately 150 years ago in the Zapotec villages of Santa Catarina Albarradas, San Antonio Albarradas and possibly one other nearby town, due to a high incidence of congenital deafness.
