SgSL-Sign-Bank/SgSL-Sign-Bank

Welcome to the unofficial and community-maintained sign bank for Singapore Sign Language (SgSL)! This sign bank aims to be the ultimate resource for Singapore Sign Language. Hopefully you will find this repository useful for learning Singapore Sign Language.

The website is built using the Astro meta-framework and uses only Astro components, and does not make use of other additional front-end frameworks like React, Vue, Solid, or Svelte. It also makes use of Pagefind for website search.

Sticker packs

Merdeaf

Merdeaf is a Deaf Merlion from Singapore, created by a Deaf artist from The Singapore Association for the Deaf (SADeaf).

The sticker packs below are the official stickers published by The Singapore Association for the Deaf (SADeaf).

The Telegram sticker pack is an unofficial port of the official LINE stickers above. The sticker pack contains both the Singapore Sign Language sticker pack and the sticker pack for Singlish Signs. You can get the sticker pack here.

The below sticker packs on chatsticker are taken directly from the official LINE stickers.

Background

This used to be a cheat sheet for the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) module LL5001 Singapore Sign Language Level 1. It was migrated to a separate repository as the list of signs inside the cheat sheet had grown to be more comprehensive than even the SgSL Sign Bank maintained by Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and The Singapore Association for the Deaf (SADeaf). Moving the cheat sheet into a separate repository will make it easier to maintain, and easier for people to contribute. Hence, this sign bank for SgSL was born.

Previously, before the website was created, the sign bank was in the form of a downloadable HTML file which was created from an Org mode document. That has since been removed as the website is far easier to use and maintain.
