Abstract: The hearing challenged community all over world face difficulties to communicate with others. Machine translation has been one of the prominent technologies to facilitate a two way communication to the deaf and hard of hearing community all over the world. We have explored and formulated the fundamental rules of Indian Sign Language and implemented as a translation mechanism of English Text to Indian sign Language glosses. The structure of the source text is identified and transferred to the target language according to the formulated rules and sub rules. The intermediate phases of the transfer process is also mentioned in this research work.
