A Survey of American Sign Language

Interpreting work is fluid and challenging for all interpreters, particularly for novice interpreters. Our goal in compiling this text was to provide a one-stop-shop, extensive detailing of the variety of settings and populations novice interpreters will experience in the interpreting field.
