Abstract :
A method was developed for translating written (spoken) language (text in Japanese) into a sequence of sign words of Japanese sign language called Simultaneous Japanese Sign Language (SJSL). The Japanese-to-Sign translation system is described that uses a Japanese-to-Sign translation dictionary with about 250 signs
