I am just finishing up my masters in deaf education and it is well known that sign language interpreters are needed. Like Janet said, you should be able to test out of some beginners ASL classes.

meaning of sign

by teach

Dec 23, 2009

One of my students is using a sign and I can't figure out what it means. What does it mean when he holds out the palm of one hand, palm up, and then uses his index finger of his other hand to make a small scratching motion in the middle of the palm. I think he's asking me for something . . .

view previous comments

Eric If your description of the sign is correct, he is not asking for a pencil. It seems like it is the sign for investigate or research. You need to have some context to go with this. what were you talking about before this sign came up?

Also, I am curious, is there not an interpreter? Are you a teacher of the Deaf?
