Sign Language Companion: A Handbook of British Signs

Cath Smith

This makes a perfect threesome with the author's previous two books 'Signs Make Sense' and 'Sign In Sight'. It is intended for all BSL students of any age and is an invaluable reference point to which they can return again and again. It presents signs grouped in topics, linking ideas and concepts and will enable students to construct their own combinations and everyday conversations. The topics include:- getting to know you; family, people and animals; conduct and behaviour; sharing ideas, interests, feelings and relationships; food and drink; colour and time. More than 400 signs are illustrated and there are over a 1,000 entries of English translation and description of variations. Each section ends with puzzles for practice and entertainment.
