Below are sources for the signs for the words from shield to short. Some of the sources are online, and others may be in print. More words can be found in the master Sign Language Reference Guide.

The Sign Language Word Reference Guide lists words found in sign language dictionary resources online, along with links to the dictionaries that have the sign. Each dictionary presents signs differently -- some have video, others have graphic illustrations or animated graphics.

In addition, About.com:Deafness has several mini sign language guides for signs for things such as animals, body parts, colors, numbers, school, and more. Plus, there are mini sign language guides for holidays such as Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Valentine's Day.
