Summary: Not For Serious Signers
Comment: Like other reviews on this book, it's important for me to mention that the title is misleading. "Signing Everyday Phrases" leads potential ASL students to believe that this book shows you how to sign phrases in American Sign Language. In reality, it shows you Signed English, something that is NOT used by adult Deaf people. This is speaking as an adult Deaf person.
Really the only thing good about this book would be if you are looking to communicate with a deaf child. Otherwise, please look the other way and you'll find many more suitable resources. (Note: Some of Mickey Flodin's books are highly recommended, but basically just the ones that shows signs alone). :o(

Summary: I learned alot...
Comment: This book is a good book for learning Basic Sign Language phrases. I have all the asl books by Mickey Flodin, and I think he's really great at explaining the signs, as well as the clear pictures. I will continue to buy his asl books for teaching sign language.

Summary: NOT for ASL Students
Comment: As a student of American Sign Language (ASL), I have successfully used Flodin's earlier book, "Signing Illustrated: The Complete Learning Guide," as a favorite reference through two semesters of the basics. I would, however, withhold any recommendation of "Signing Everyday Phrases" to a student of ASL.
ASL is recognized as a true language and as such has its own specific syntax. "Signing Everyday Phrases" is an offering in Signed English which presents a different word order from ASL and uses many more signs to convey the same meaning.
Since this book is about putting signed words together to form phrases and short sentences and appropriate syntax is a must in ASL, this book is definitely not for the student of ASL.
