Selected
Americal Sign Language (ASL) and Cued Speech Resources
(Note that ASL signs
are typically shown as seen by
someone who is viewing the
sign, and thus not as seen by the
person signing.)
- First
100 ASL Signs: About 100 signs frequently used between
parents and
young children. From Dr. Bill Vicars' LifePrint.com online curriculum
resource for
American Sign Language students, instructors, interpreters, and parents
of deaf children.
- ASL

conversational dictionaries, ASL for babies.

- A Full Dictionary of ASL Terms: A very extensive
dictionary, with
thousands of words which show the hand signs made to sign each word.
The dictionary has text definitions, explaining how to make the sign,
as well as animated signs, which show someone actually signing the
word. Please note that you may have to install the Apple
QuickTime
plug-in for your browser to view the animated signs.

- Cued Speech
is a mode of communication based on the phonemes and properties of
traditionally spoken languages. Cueing allows users who are deaf or
hard of hearing or who have language/communication disorders to access
the basic, fundamental properties of spoken languages through the use
of vision.
