Customer Reviews

if you're learning to interpret ASL, get this book!

I've only made it through the first five chapters of this book for my class so far, but I'm learning a lot. The writing isn't as dense as some textbooks- definitely understandable and has lots of examples. So far I've learned how to write ASL gloss, some history of ASL, how English is used in the deaf community, about the formation of signs and different variations of ASL, and about how different types of sentences are formed. If you're working towards becoming an interpreter or if you're just learning ASL for some other reason, you should check out this book.
