Oralist methods often forbade the use of sign language, so black deaf students had more opportunities to use ASL than did their white peers. Croneberg was the first to discuss differences between BASL and White ASL in his appendices of the 1965 version of the Dictionary of American Sign Language. Lexical variation between BASL and other dialects of ASL was first noted in the Dictionary of American Sign Language.[13] In a later study of 34 lexical signs, black signers were found to have 28 signs that White signers did not know.[33] Older signers are more likely to use variant signs than younger signers.
