About ASL Dictionary from NTID
This ASL Dictionary from the National Technical Institute for the Deaf is a modified version of their popular ASL Video Dictionary and Inflection Guide -- DIG. The program shows 2,700 signs and 650 sentences that demonstrate how signs change, or “inflect”, to convey different meanings. For example, modifications in hand movements and facial expressions can change the sign for “help” to mean help me, help them, help for a long time, etc. “Afternoon” can change to mean all afternoon, late afternoon or every afternoon. The sentences also show the full range of ASL grammar.
There is an option to show signs grouped into 24 categories: Countries, Animals, Numbers, States, Money, etc. As a self-test, users also have an option to choose when they see the English sentences – simultaneously with the ASL sentences, or afterwards.

Whether I am connected to Wi-Fi or using my network the videos play for a split second then I get a pop message saying to check my connection. I can't learn a thing.

This app is awesome for learning how to sign but needs more in the way of grammar I think.

Reliable source of ASL signs. I've been waiting a long time for this app to come to Android. The only downsides are that it needs an internet connection and it's not as comprehensive as I would like. It's still great though.

But needs more features like slow motion. Most of the videos are almost to fast to see the full sign. I like that it gives similiar words to the one you looked up. But needs more polish. Some signers look grumpy, facial expressions do not really match the sign they are showing.

RIT is unparalleled. Once you look up a sign, it not only gives you the sign but for most it also offers at least one sentence using that sign so you can see it in context. And, it suggests similar signs you might want to look at for comparison. I have tried several ASL dictionaries and this is the best by far. Clear, professional, and extremely helpful to any ASL student.

It is a convienent dictionary that only goes one way; English to ASL. I wish there was the option to select loop. It is nice in that it shows similar signs to the one you look up, however the video can be slow sometimes and can lag. It is the best app on the market, so I foresee this app lasting for a while.

This is really good. Extremely comprehensive, beautiful clear video, and a really comfortable interface, easy to use. 2,700 signs and 650 sentences!!!! SO many features. The whole language is there! NTID is great for this kind of thing...you can tell this was done by people who know what they're doing, both linguistically and with the technology. What a GREAT help for learning ASL, all the signing is so natural.

Old signs and East Coast signs, so if you live west of the Mississippi these will only be good reference for communication or terping for older folks from the Eastern U.S.
