Links to Sign Language Gestures

The website you see in the above image is goes to a site called LearnASL.us, and the site that sells discs for your comupter and the discs have lessons on them that teacj you sign language.  However, you will need to buy the discs. 

A website called handspeak.com and this site allows you to see videos of words in sign language.  An example of this is, click on demo in the Dictionary section on the site homepage.  After you click in demo,you will see a list of words on the left hand side of the screen.  Click on a word like baby, and a video will appear to display the sign gesture for baby.  You can also sign up to the site so you can have access to over 3200 ASL words and a weekly update of new signs.  However, you will need to make a payment in order to recieve the words that the site lists.

A web page from a website called Expert Village has videos that show how to say common phrases.  If you click on link shown above it will bring you directly to the common phrases web page where you can look up common phrases in sign language. However, the home page of Expert Village allows you to find more videos that are on the site.  If you type "sign language" in the search bar and click on the search tab, the website will bring up all the vidoes relating to sign language that they have on their site.  When the video results appear, each video will have a colored circle with a thumb in it.  The green thumbs up circle videos have the highest quality, the grey thumbs to the side circle videos have a middle ground quality, and the red thumbs down videos have the poorest quality.

A web site called ASLPro.com is free, and it has an entire dictionary of words that has videos to display the sign gestures.  The above link goes straight to the main dictionary however, if you click on the home page link it will bring you the the ASLPro homepage.
