Understanding ASL Structure

Linguistic terms are available on this website.

I would like to extend my thanks to Wanda Riddle with Gallaudet University General Studies Program for the inspiration of integrating cinematic storytelling with linguistic analysis and to Dr. Raychelle Harris of ASL and Deaf Studies Department with Gallaudet University for her support and guidance. This project would not be possible without the extensive consultation of Dr. Miako Villanueva of Gallaudet University’s Department of Linguistics. I am indebted to these three individuals for helping making this project come to full fruition.
