Why FingerSpell Flashcards?
The hard part of learning to sign the finger alphabet is not learning the forms, but learning to read and sign them at the speed that a native speaker would actually use. Fingerspell Flashcards is an online flash card system to learn and build proficiency in Fingerspelling, both spelling out words and reading words that other people sign to you. To reach this level, you need to practice. Other tools let you practice one letter at a time, and some learning CDs have a few words recorded as video, but these are quickly memorized. You also need to practice your own alphabet. Most tools out there know about ASL, but that is really confusing if your languages is slightly different (say DSGS or DGS) and totally useless if your alphabet is completely different, such as the two handed British Sign Language (BSL).
