Great Deaf Related Websites

This site, sponsored by Michigan State University, is an online sign language dictionary. An excellent place to send hearing friends or go to look up a sign you can’t seem to remember.

The site has 2500 digital videos to watch right over the internet that represent about 4500 English words.

After entering the site, you choose a letter along the bottom, and then a word along the right column, and on the left a person will demonstrate how to sign that particular word.

They also sell the system on a CD-Rom for only $19.99 so you don’t have to wait for the videos to download.
