Abstract

Sign language is a natural language that is actively used by deaf, hard of hearing, or even hearing people who can sign in communication with deaf people. Sign language which was acknowledged as a complete language around the 1960s is visual gestural language that relies on the hand (or other part of the body) to produce utterance. Japanese Sign Language is a natural sign language in Japan. Recently, many deaf communities in Japan are sharing their videos on YouTube with such rich and varied topics. This article classified Japanese Sign Language focus on sign of food into three groups based on collected data. There are three big groups that classify the sign of food in Japanese Sign Language, based on how the food proceeds, how the food is enjoyed, and how the shape or the character of the food. Those three factors became the significant factor that motivated selection of food image into then the sign of foods.
