American Sign Language handshape dictionary / Richard A. Tennant, Marianne Gluszak Brown ; illustrated by Valerie Nelson-Metlay. Washington, D.C. : Gallaudet University Press, 2010. 1 online resource (461 pages) : illustrations. rdacontent text rdamedia computer rdacarrier online resource Propuesta ALA Intro -- Contents -- Preface -- Introduction -- How to Use This Dictionary -- One-Hand Signs -- Two-Hand Signs -- Index of English Glosses -- Acknowledgments 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. Like other ASL dictionaries, introductory material includes a brief synopsis of the history of sign language, the meaning and importance of the five parameters of a sign (handshape, orientation, location, movement, and nonmanual signals), grammatical rules, sign language variations (dialects), and finger-spelling principles.
