There is not a website specifically dedicated to translating English to American Sign Language (ASL) word order.

It is recommended to learn ASL grammar and structure directly to ensure clear and accurate communication.


Where can you find an online American Sign Language translator?

I am not aware of a program that can interpret English text to ASL. There are programs that change the English word into an ASL sign but this is not ASL: what you get is series of signs in English word order, which is not ASL. ASL is not based on English grammar, structure; it has it's own grammar and structure. If you look at certain websites you can see how certain common phrases are signed.

However, ASL remains a distinct language with its own grammar and syntax.

Was is the difference between Signing Exact English and American Sign Language?

Signing Exact English (SEE) is very different than American Sign Language (ASL). ASL is a language all of its own. It has its own grammar, its own syntax. It has everything that is required of a language in its own rights. SEE is not a language by itself. It is a code based on English. ASL is based on concepts not on words, while SEE is based on the English word or word part. For example: English spoken sentence: I am going to go to the store. Signed Exact English: I + am + go + ing + to + the + store. American Sign Language: Store + go + me In the above sentence the ASL user decides what is important...store. What about the store? go. Who goes? me (I am me are the same person thus there is no differentiation). The words/suffix am, ing, to and the carry no meaning thus they are dropped.


When you translate a prepositional phrase from English to ASL what happens?

ASL relies more on visual and spatial elements to show relationships between objects and concepts, rather than specific preposition words.
