Nicaragua viipekeel

Nicaragua viipekeel (hispaania Idioma de Signos Nicaragüense, lühend ISN) on Nicaragua kurtide kasutatav viipekeel, mis on tekkinud 1970ndate lõpus ja 1980ndate alguses Managuas kuulmispuudega koolilaste suhtlemise käigus.

Nicaragua viipekeel pakub keeleteadlastele huvi kui uue keele tekkimise juhtum.
