Study New Languages

American Sign Language can be a bit more of a challenge to learn than traditional languages. Most languages lend themselves well to written or computerized flash cards. ASL is a bit more difficult in this way because you would have to make up the images (or video/animation) yourself. Fortunately there are some good choices out there. In fact, there is one large flash card set (500) at a reasonable price that has come out since the last time I was looking for ASL flash cards.

This is put out by Barron’s and looks like a good thorough collection. From what I can see, there are some areas that aren’t addressed in the set (colors, family relationships, foods and clothing) but outside of that it seems to be fairly well reviewed. Add to that the fact that it’s 500 flash cards for under $20 and it looks like one of the best values out there right now.
