Whether you're a teacher, manager, teammate, or classmate of a Deaf or Hard-of-hearing person, this sign will come in handy! Life happens – schedules change, things come up. As much as we like, sometimes we don't stay on track. This sign will help convey that with as much ease as possible!
Form both hands into "closed 5" handshapes and start with your hands in front of your stomach and palms facing your body. Move both hands forward slightly in one swift movement.
1. With your dominant hand sign "R–E."
2. With your dominant hand in an "open 4" handshape, extend your arm in front of your body with your palm face down. Move your hand downward, then towards your dominant side.
Learning to sign is a great start. For the moments that have to be right (a medical appointment, a parent-teacher meeting, a legal conversation) Ava connects you with a credentialed ASL interpreter over video in the Ava app, on demand or scheduled ahead. Available 24/7, with live captions included.
