for signed language [@dataset:mesch2012meaning;@fenlon2015building;@crasborn2016ngt;@dataset:gutierrez2016lse] map a spoken language word or short phrase to a signed language video.
One notable dictionary, SpreadTheSign\footnote{\url{https://www.spreadthesign.com/}} is a parallel dictionary containing around 25,000 words with up to 42 different spoken-signed language pairs and more than 600,000 videos in total. Unfortunately, while dictionaries may help create lexical rules between languages, they do not demonstrate the grammar or the usage of signs in context.
@langer-etal-2024-introducing introduce the DW-DGS, the first corpus-based digital dictionary of German Sign Language, providing 1876 entries grounded in the DGS Corpus with senses, authentic example clips, regional distribution maps, and synonym/antonym cross-references via thumbnail "micons" instead of glosses.

Cites the corpus-based Digital Dictionary of DGS in the bilingual
dictionaries section, since it is a notable corpus-based DGS lexical
resource relevant to that discussion.
