The deafblind manual alphabet
1. Deaf blind manual alphabet is also known as finger
spelling, the deaf blind manual alphabet is a method of
spelling out of words onto a deaf blind person’s hand. Each
latter is denoted by a particular sign or place on the hand.
3. For people with limited vision British Sign Language can still be
used. In this case , signing will be done within the
Person’s remaining field of vision.
Here is the Deafblind Manual Alphabet, if you are a sighted
person I would be delighted if you would take a copy of this
graphical picture of the Deafblind Manual Alphabet, so you can
learn it when you have the time, you never know you may one
day meet a Deafblind person,

14. This method of communication is based upon british sign
language.
With system , the deaf blind person follows the sign by
placing his hands over those of the signer and feeling the
sign formed .
People with Usher syndrome may use this form of
communication as their sight reduces.
Hands-on Signing - this is used by British Sign Language
users whose vision no longer allows them to see sign
language and they therefore 'feel' sign language by resting
their hands on the communicator's.
HANDS OF SIGNING
16. • Block is a manual form of communication where
words are spelled out on to a palm of the deaf blind
person’s hand .
• This is a simple system used by some deafblind
people.
• With your forefinger draw the clear shape of capital
letters on the palm of the deafblind person's hand.
17. Use the whole palm for each letter - keeping them
large and clear. Place one letter over the top of the last
- do not attempt to write across the palm as you would
on a sheet of paper and keep your pen in your pocket!
Pause slightly at the end of each word making sure the
person is able to follow what you are saying.
Letters should generally be drawn from left to right
and from top to bottom. Letters M N and W should be
drawn keeping the finger on the palm and not in
separate strokes.
18.
19. • For the people with limited vision British Sign
Language can stilled be used . In case signing will be
done within the person’s remaining field of vision.
• Visual Frame Signing - a way of modifying and using
sign language in a restricted space to suit the visual
needs of the individual receiving it.
20. Tadoma is tactile lip reading (or tactile
speechreading).
The Tadoma user, feels the vibrations of the throat and
face and jaw positions of the speaker as he/she speaks.
Unfortunately, this requires years of training and
practice, and can be slow. Although highly-skilled
Tadoma users can comprehend speech at near
listening rates, most Tadoma users are much slower
and the added restriction of the user having to be in
contact with the speaker adds to the problems
associated with the Tadoma method.
21. It is not very popular because it is hard to do and not
very accurate.
22. Sign Language, Some deaf blind people were deaf from
birth and became blind as teen-agers or adults.
They prefer the sign language used by deaf people.
Instead of watching the hands and arms of friends,
they touch the hands of the person making the signs
to learn what is being said.
It is usually necessary to restrict the movements
involved in making signs so that a deafblind person
can follow along conveniently. This system can lead to
confusion.
23. It requires the speaker to have extensive training in
sign language. However, it is possible to interpret as
quickly as English is spoken using this method.
