Frequently Asked Questions

Which sign languages are supported?

We support 8 sign language alphabets: American (ASL), British (BSL), Russian (RSL), German (DGS), French (LSF), Arabic (ArSL), Korean (KSL), and Indonesian (BISINDO). Each has its complete alphabet with hand shape diagrams.

How does spaced repetition work?

The system tracks which letters you get right or wrong. Letters you struggle with appear more frequently, while mastered letters appear less often. This is the most efficient way to learn.

Are the hand shape diagrams accurate?

The SVG diagrams show simplified representations of each handshape — which fingers are extended, curled, or bent. They are learning aids designed for quick recognition practice. For detailed instruction, we recommend supplementing with video resources.

What is the Speed Round?

A 60-second timed challenge where you identify as many hand signs as possible. Your personal best is saved. Great for building speed and fluency.

Does it use my camera?

No. All practice is visual: you see hand shape diagrams and identify or type letters. No camera, microphone, or sign-up required.

Is my progress saved?

Yes, all progress is saved in your browser's local storage. Statistics, spaced repetition data, and personal bests persist between sessions. No account needed.
