    Russian sign language has a grammar that is not like the spoken or written Russian language. It has much stricter word order and word formation rules. Russian sign language came from French sign language and is similar to American sign language. The vocabulary from Austrian sign language also a big impact on Russian sign language. (DISCLAIMER: from Wikipedia--I know its not a reliable source--they did have citation, but it took me to sites in Russian so could be true, could be false I don't know! I was able to verify from other websites however that it did originate from Austrian and French sign language and they do use some manual/finger spelling.)

    Standford University has been doing research on Russian sign language. They show English words like apple and how they are signed using the Russian sign language. There are over 500 videos of signed words. //www.stanford.edu/group/ll/data2/rsl/

    Here is the Russian letters/alphabet signed. One is just a picture and the other is a youtube video of someone signing them.
