This work presents the linguistic basis of a Spanish Sign Language (LSE) synthesizer. This paper focuses on the phonologic foundations of LSE and an approach to describe signed messages. Related to phonology, we will discuss the phonologic parameters used during the synthesis, the phonologic model which has been used in this work and the proposed approach to store all this information. Finally, we present the results of the synthesizer’s evaluations conducted by LSE natives.
