Dear colleagues,

The Austrian Sign Language database has now more than 12.000 entries 
(partially including 2-4 dialectal variants). It can now be accessed 
directly via

http://ledasila.uni-klu.ac.at/TPM/public/public_main.asp?sid=&language=ENG&languageid=2 
(English version)

or

http://ledasila.uni-klu.ac.at/TPM/public/public_main.asp?sid=  (home in 
German).

By the way: Our database was completely changed into a web format, so all 
info/features  can be handled via the Internet.

After the Marrakech workshop we will offer LEDASILA (Lexical Database for 
Sign Languages) for free non-commercial use. Then everyone who has the 
authorisation from a deaf community can use LEDASILA for documenting the 
respective sign language (or variant). All relevant description terms can be 
changed into any alphabetically represented language by contacting us.


A dictionary containing medical terms in German, Czech and Austrian Sign 
Language can be found at:

A small comparative dictionary (= word list) of Hungarian and Austrian Sign 
Language can be found at:
