Can you communicate using sign language?

I understand some when a person is signing, but I cannot communicate fully except a few basic commands.
Hi, how are you?, welcome, sorry and thank you.

Not very much. I was working briefly in an office that served customers with all types of specials needs and learned how to take tty calls. One of the clerks could sign and taught me a few commands so I could assist customers who came down in person.
My brother took classes and was actually very proficient. He occasionally gets to help people with it, as he did when he was a policeman.
