Pidgin Signed English

Pidgin Signed English is a communication system that combines aspects of American Sign Language (ASL) and English. It uses gestures and signs similar to ASL but incorporates English word order and grammar, allowing for more direct expression of English sentences. This approach is often used as a bridge for those learning ASL or communicating across diverse signing communities, blending the visual clarity of sign language with the structure of English to facilitate understanding. It is not a fully standardized language but a flexible tool for effective communication among users with varying signing backgrounds.
