Lingvano: Sign Language - ASL

ASL lessons for beginners

Lingvano: Sign Language - ASL is an education app for people starting to learn American Sign Language. It uses short, visual lessons to introduce vocabulary, fingerspelling, numbers, grammar and everyday conversations. The format suits learners who want guided practice in brief sessions rather than a traditional textbook-style course.

Practice built around signing

Lessons use videos, pictures and interactive exercises to connect signs with their meanings. Dialogue-based activities show ASL in conversational situations, while quizzes help check progress at the end of learning sections. Video playback can be slowed down when a movement is difficult to follow.

• Review vocabulary, fingerspelling and number signs with a dedicated trainer.
• Search for unfamiliar signs in the built-in dictionary.
• Use the interactive mirror to practise signing and compare your movements.
• Track regular study through learning streaks, awards and milestone exercises.

Who it suits

The app is aimed mainly at beginners, including learners who want useful signs for conversations with Deaf family members, friends, colleagues or neighbours. Its lessons are presented by Deaf teachers, and the dialogue content includes different real-world signing styles. The short activities also make it practical for learners fitting practice around other commitments.
