A Dictionary of American Sign Language on Linguistic Principles (DASL) is the first American Sign Language (ASL) dictionary based on linguistic principles written by William C. Stokoe, Dorothy C. Casterline, and Carl G. Croneberg. It was first published in 1965 by the Gallaudet College Press. The dictionary introduces a new notation system, Stokoe notation, to represent the form of ASL signs independently from English translation.
