 Great basic ASL dictionary January 28, 2006
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Elaine Costello got it right when she made this dictionary and had it sectioned by topic instead of purely alphabetical. This book is a required text for my college level intro to ASL classes that I teach.
Just as described October 3, 2005

"Signing: How To Speak With Your Hands" by Elaine Costello, PHD July 14, 2005
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I began taking classes to learn A.S.L. about two years ago, and "How To Speak With Your Hands" was my first study guide. I found it to be an excellent book for a beginner and I continue to use it as a reference tool.
Silent language May 20, 2004
This book is easy to use and is a very good reference to have.
 Excellent for Signed English June 5, 2003
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is great as a vocabulary builder for new signers. Signs are clearly shown and explained.
However, it pushes English grammar and word order, and the number of signs per category can be overwhelming.
Not for those who want to learn the "pure" form of American Sign Language, grammar and all.
