An illustrated starter reference for everyday ASL exchanges

It is designed for people beginning to sign as well as for people who regularly communicate with ASL users, with illustrations supporting the presentation of key signs. The material centers on common interactions with loved ones, coworkers, patients, and other people in one’s day-to-day life, making it a phrase-based companion rather than a broad survey of sign language linguistics or grammar.

  • Beginning ASL learners seeking everyday phrases
