Hi Adam,<br>
I know of a site that has a short video in several sign languages.
One being Chilean. Take a look at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://watchtower.org/e/sign.htm">http://watchtower.org/e/sign.htm</a> .
There are other Chilean DVDs are listed that you can request at
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://watchtower.org/address/article_01.htm">http://watchtower.org/address/article_01.htm</a> .<br>
There is also a lovely article about signlanguages that all
signlanguage lovers will enjoy viewing or listening to and it briefly
mentions the good reaction of deaf people to the DVDs in South
America. The link to the ASL version is <a
href="http://www.jw.org/index.html?option=QrYQFVTrZNT&selLang=ASL&selMne=w">w09
08/15-ASL_06 </a> It is also available in Colombian and Italian sign
language. The audio versions of the same article ‘Jehovah Has Made
His Face Shine Toward Them’ can be found at the following <a
href="http://www.jw.org/index.html?option=QrYQZRQVNZNT">link </a>in
over 19 spoken languages. It's in the August 15th issue.<br>
I hope helps and that you enjoy watching them. They aren't
dictionaries per say but being that the same information is published
in several languages hopefully you can figure out some of the signs. <br>

Hello Adam -
<br>
Unfortunately, Chilean Sign Language is not one of the many sign
languages we have written in SignWriting in SignPuddle Online, but you
can visit SignPuddle to read signs from Paraguay and other sign
languages in South America...

Does anyone know, here on the SignWriting List, any source of
information on Chilean Sign Languages?
<br>
<br>
I think, Adam, you will need to wait and when you arrive in Chile,
contact members of the Deaf Community there, or contact a local
language school or university, to inquire about taking sign language
classes...that is your best bet -
<br>
