Product Details

Plains Indians from different tribes speaking different languages were nevertheless able to communicate facts and feelings of considerable complexity when they met. They used a language composed of gestures made almost entirely with the hands and fingers, probably the most highly developed gesture language to be found in any part of the world.

With this book, you will find it simple to use this language, which the author learned in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, principally from Sioux Indians in Wyoming. Drawings with short descriptions made clear the proper positions and motions of the hands to convey the meanings of over 870 alphabetically arranged common words - hungry, camp, evening, angry, fire, laugh, owl, cat, many times, brave, cold, heart, rain, spotted, together, river, etc. The words are then used in sample sentences. There are also brief sections on the pictography and ideography of the Sioux and Ojibway tribes, and on smoke signals.

This is a book for anyone who wants to learn or teach Indian sign language.
