Signed English a system of manual communication which presents vocabulary
drawn from English word order. It uses two kinds of gesturers or signs: sign
words and sign markers. Each sign stands for an English word. These sign words
are used in the same order as words in an English sentence. Signed English uses
fourteen markers. The sign markers are used when you wish to show that you are
talking about more than one thing, show that something happened in the past,
or show the possessive. In signed English you use either a sign word alone or a
sign word and one sign marker to represent a given English word. The suffixes
in English therefore are often dropped enabling the signer to speak easily while
signing and to keep pace with spoken English
