Abstract

This paper introduces the ongoing project of digitizing and phonologically transcribing the The Canadian Dictionary of ASL to be used as a language resource. We describe the contents of the dictionary and the procedure used for creating the transcribed version, using the Sign Language Phonetic Annotator-Analyzer software. We also outline the benefits of creating a resource with such a detailed representation of the formational structure of signs.
