Dear Students,
The links below are under construction. To see the vocabulary,
view the video quiz (above). If you don't know what those signs are,
then use the answer list (above).
Remember, many "medical concepts" can be correctly expressed via a
variety of different sign choices. Here I'm showing you some
fairly good ways but quite a few other methods exist. Learn what you
can within the constraints of your time and energy and move on.
Ask your Deaf friends and acquaintances how they would express
various medical concepts. Get a feel for the variety out there and
then strive to choose versions of signs that are highly depictive,
clear, and that do not conflict with other signs.
