About this product

Product Information

British Sign Language (B.S.L.) is the visual gestural language of the Deaf community in Britain and is the first or preferred language of over 70,000 people. This is the first major B.S.L./English Dictionary to be published. It contains over 1,800 photographed sign entries ordered by linguistic principles according to the visual characteristics of the language. Each entry is notated with a description of how to produce the sign. A guide to the meaning(s) of each sign is provided in English. The dictionary will be of particular interest to hearing and Deaf people (and their tutors) engaged in learning B.S.L. or English as a second language. Whether you want to learn B.S.L or teach it - or just improve your vocabulary - the Dictionary of British Sign Language is the authoritative place to begin. The Dictionary of British Sign Language was compiled for the British Deaf Association by the Deaf Studies Research Unit at the University of Durham.

    Great reference book

    Once you have read the instructions on how to use the dictionary, it is very straightforward to find the signs that you are looking for. Finding the sign to determine its meaning takes a little more effort but, once you've done it a couple of times, it's fine.

  • Not suitable.

    Not enough photos to show different signs. Difficult to find what I want to look up. Not good at all. Really wished I had never purchased it.
