Abstract

One of the most wonderful gift of nature in our world to the human being to see everything, to listen everything and then reacts to the situations by speaking. But there are some less fortune ones who are deprived of this wonderful gift. That type ofhuman beings are mainly called as “Deaf and Dumb” people. So Howthe “Deaf and Dumb” will communicate with normal people?. Sign language is a language for “Deaf and Dumb” people. By Sign Language, “Deaf and Dumb” people will communicate their feelings Hand gesture is a method of non-verbalcommunication for human beings for its freer expressions much more other than body parts. The “Hand”, “Arm”, “Eyes”, “Lips” and “Face” are the body parts which are using to show the expression.
