In ASL signs for dates, time, money and general numbers have different movements for each meaning. For example, the sign for 4 o’clock has a side to side movement, while the sign for 4 dollars has a twisting motion. • Names are translated. “Mr. Brown” is correctly finger spelled while “a brown house” shows the sign for the color brown. • Words/signs such as "to" "the" "are" "am" "be", which are not used in ASL, are automatically removed from sentences. |
