Beschreibung

"Each sign illustration, including depictions of fingerspelling when appropriate, incorporates a complete list of English synonyms. A full, alphabetized English index enables users to cross-reference words and signs throughout the entire volume. The comprehensive introduction lays the groundwork for learning ASL by explaining in plain language the workings of ASL syntax and structure. [The book] also offers examples of idioms and describes the antecedents of ASL, its place in the Deaf community, and its meaning in Deaf culture"--Back cover.
