Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A free tool that shows a typed word or name as British or American Sign Language manual-alphabet fingerspelling, with practice and shareable results.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-05 issue.

For: BSL and ASL learners, teachers, and fingerspelling users
Worth noticing: The site distinguishes fingerspelling from full sign-language translation and from receiving a sign name.

Field notes

The tool accepts words and names, with BSL and ASL as separate choices and a displayed limit of 24 letters. A practice mode steps through one letter at a time, while the sharing interface lists links, embeds, and downloadable images in portrait, square, and story formats. The site also explains that the two manual alphabets differ, including the common distinction between two-handed BSL and one-handed ASL fingerspelling.
