You can now sign your name. You can also communicate by spelling everything out For signing, use the space around your chest. Show your palm as you sign the letters assuming you are talking to a deaf person so that they can differentiate the signs clearly. For ease of communication, people are given a sign name to avoid spelling the whole name every time they refer to a person. |

Activity : Good Morning, my name is (spell your name) Photos: I, name In sign language, you don't have to use perfect English grammar. So the sign is the second and third fingers held together. Tap twice to sign the word "name" Then point to yourself Then sign the letters of the name 1 Like

LESSON 3 There are drastic variations in signing family relations. I'll use American sign language because Nigerian sign language was derived from it. FAMILY To sign "family" make a letter "f" touching the two closed fingers with both hands, draw the hands apart as you turn them toward yourself Woman More images |
