Summary:The current research deals with grammar in sign language, as it compares the grammatical rules in the Arabic language with the grammatical rules applied in sign language, through an inductive approach that traces the linguistic structures in sign language to reach the overall rules of these structures.The study reached a number of results, the most important of which are: There are special grammar rules in sign language. Sentences in sign language are basically nominal sentences. There are no phonetic clues to determine the role of the word in the sign language, grammatical meanings are determined (subject, object, etc.). Through the direction of movement in sign language, thus no grammatical signs are used. Special indicative morphological forms are also used to build grammatical meanings, such as masculine and feminine, and the type of verb: present, past, or imperative.
