The American Sign Language Handshape Dictionary

Resource Type

Book

Description

"This reference complements other American Sign Language (ASL) dictionaries by organizing signs by handshape rather than alphabetically by English word order. In so doing, it acts best as a recognition tool for the ASL learner, leading the user quickly to specific signs without having first to refer to an English-equivalent word. Multiple meanings of a single sign also allow deaf people to increase their English vocabulary..." -Library Journal, Andy Wickens, Univ. of Washington, Seattle
