Yes, but for what use? If he's going to sign with other adults he'll want to use signs differently than if he's using them for English literacy.

Most of the signs I saw on the list can be found in regular sign language dictionaries. The rest that don't have signs can be spelled. Of course, in ASL conversations, many of them wouldn't even be used, such as the articles and to be forms.

I hope someone with expertise in this area can provide the answers that he's seeking.
