Do you want to learn British Sign Language (BSL)? Start here! In this video, Dan demonstrates how to sign the alphabet in BSL for both right-handers and left-handers. Fingerspelling is an important tool and is perhaps the first thing you should learn in BSL.
Other aspects of fingerspelling are also covered including: which hand to use, swapping hands, where to hold your hands and what your lip pattern should be when fingerspelling.
Put your fingerspelling receptive skills to the test with a quiz at the end of the video. Ten words are spelled; five are with lip patterns and five without making it more difficult. Good luck!
