Each sign depicted on the DVD includes a complete list of English glosses and synonyms from The Handshape Dictionary for reference.

       This fully searchable, full-color DVD enables users to survey each handshape group for a specific sign. They not only can find the corresponding English words for the sign, they will benefit from the added dimension of seeing exactly how the sign is formed from beginning to end.
