Sign Language is the language used by the deaf and dumb people throughout the world. The structure of sign languages are varies from country to country. This paper presents English text to SiGML file translation model where the system will accept the input text and then convert into HamNoSys representation. The HamNoSys is further translated into xml file called SiGML. The whole translation is based on corpus. There is direct mapping between English word and HamNoSys string. The corpus is prepared by collecting the word used in daily life and corresponding HamNoSys string. The translation algorithm is executed by using python programming language in Windows 8 operating system with the help of NLTK and produce good results about speed.
