A second language is a language that is learned after one has already learned one language. Sometimes it is also that your family is bi or multilingual. For example I speak Marathi but because of schools in India i have to be very fluent in Hindi and English (these are my 2nd and 3rd languages). It is often learned for business purposes because of the second language's dominance in important affairs. For example, many people learn English because of how many important affairs involve the United States. A foreign language is a language that is from a country other than one's native country. Foreign languages are usually learned for the sake of learning about the culture and people who speak it. For example, some people learn ancient Greek for a deeper understanding of the early philosophers from reading their works in their original language.A second language is a language you learn that is not the language you normally speak. e.g. if you grow up speaking only English and you learn spanish later in life your second language is spanish. Furthermore you have choice whether to continue your career in that language as it is just something you have to learn in school and give tests on. It may or may not help you later in life. So it is like something quite distant to you and you do not use it every day to think or speak.
American Sign Language (ASL) is a unique language with its own grammar and vocabulary, so it does not directly translate English words into signs. However, there can be signs in ASL that correspond to English words, but it cannot be quantified in the same way as spoken languages.
No, Makaton is a communication system that uses signs and symbols to support individuals with communication difficulties. British Sign Language (BSL) is a separate language used by the deaf community in the UK. While both involve the use of gestures and signs, they serve different purposes and have distinct rules and grammar.
British Sign Language (BSL) and American Sign Language (ASL) are two distinct sign languages with different signs, grammar, and syntax. BSL is primarily used in the United Kingdom, while ASL is used in North America. The fingerspelling alphabet and some signs may vary between the two languages.

I am not shore.
records aren't kept on this topic, but it certainly has happened many times.
A rough number would be hard to identify as new signs are being developed all the time. As with any other language, sign language is a living thing that grows and evolves.
Koko's handler taught her how to speak sign language. If you want some more fun facts about Koko, ill tell you right here: .Her first cat was a little grey tabby that she chose because it didnt have a tail either, so she thought it was a baby. . When that cat got run over, she got another one and named it the same thing. Have fun!
You don't. Like many spoken languages such as Russian and Latin, American Sign Language has no signs for articles such as "the" and "a".
Since there are many thousands of languages in the world, I somehow doubt that there is any person who has learned them all.

Yes, usually by using signs as many tribes had their own language.
It depends on which culture. Many cultures are quickly learned by social emmersion, or simply spending time in a the society. Also, if you learned English, or the language that you need to go to visit a place, the teacher will often have tips.
There is no "best" way to learn a language, because everyone learns slightly differently. Though many language teachers agree that immersion is an excellent way to learn a language.
