Singapore Sign Language
SgSL 202 Course

Synopsis

Building on the foundations laid in SgSL 101-105 & SgSL 201, the SINGAPORE SIGN LANGUAGE SgSL 202 COURSE delves deeper into the semantics of SgSL, exploring how meaning is constructed and conveyed through the interaction of signs, expressions, and classifiers. Students will expand their use of classifiers, learning to use them more dynamically to describe complex actions, shapes, and sizes. Interactive activities will encourage students to practice and refine their ability to use visual-spatial grammar to convey detailed information accurately.

​
