What I hadn't realised until today was that they have different numbers as well.
I looked up the ASL alphabet today, and found this:

As an Auslan person, that bottom row looks to me like:
0, 1, 2, 8, 4, 5, 3 ...followed by words I don't know.
No larger point. I just find it interesting that counting can be so different in different countries.
