Okay, so first, we're going to start with finger spelled names. All right, So, like Joe Kim stuff like that, then we're going to do adverbs. All right, so we're talking about usually always, sometimes words like that. Words off Frequency X will do verbs. All right, so we're talking about action verbs. All right? Maybe, like, cook, cry, run stuff like that. Right. So we have the three components, we can put them together to make sentences. And when we have sentences, we have complete thoughts, right? So this is a great way to express a complete thought about a situation, right? And as we go, of course, there will be tests, right? There'll be a lot of practice. We will also have tests because we need to know that you understand what's happening right . You need to be able to sign.

Four (4) Fingerspelling Rules: All right, let's talk about four finger spelling rules, Right? Four finger spelling rules. Hey, let's jump right in. Thes are best practices when your finger spelling right number one use your dominant hand so dominant being just means what you're most comfortable with or what you use the most. Right? So I'm right handed. I do most of my finger spelling with my right hand, so I use my dominant hand. I can finger spell with my left hand, but it just feels more natural with my right hand. If it feels more natural for you with your left hand. Great to use your left hand. This goes for finger spelling as well as signing. Okay, so I usually use my right hand when I sign. And when I finger spelled, you want to use your left hand. Eight. The purpose of all of this, the point is clear. Communication, right? Left hand, right hand. Who cares? Communicate clearly. Yes, right. Number two. Right sign in front of your shoulder. Let's pretend so. I'm right handed. Let's pretend there's kind of a box here that's in front of my shoulder area, right? So it's a little bit in front of my shoulders, not right on my shoulder. So it's like right here, and you stick your hand in it. Right? So when I'm saying hello, my hand and my signing letters are inside the box, right? If you move around a little bit here, no worries, you know, it's close enough. You're gonna be understood. The point is, if you're signing, like, way off over here, it's difficult because people have to look from your eyes to your hand from eyes to your hand. And the whole purpose when you're signing when you're communicating is that it's a total package, right? You give your facial expressions, your eye movements, your hand movements, your fingers spelling all of that stuff. And it's all right here, close to your eye and your face. It's easy for people to understand, So it's about clear communication. Don't sign off here. It's not. There's no point. Right? Stay in here. Okay, right. Number three double letters. Repeat a little to the side. Okay, So for example Hello. All right. It has two l's h e l l o right. Did you see it? Els One Ellis here. Next one went a little bit to the right, right. You can balance a little, or you could just slide a little. Your choice. I bonds a little bit if you're Lefty. Same thing. Just go to the other side. All right? The point is you don't want to go like this because it looks like the l is just one letter , but it's too, because we're signing h e l l Oh, right. So you gotta move just a little bit. This side or that side Whatever's hand you use, let's do some practice. All right? No sign with me. Here we go. Okay. So the name read right? We go R e d right r e d You don't have to keep going r e d and keep going away. You can do the double movement e and then just come back R e d. All right, Another one Jenny e n. And why you see the little movement. And remember, you can also slide in they e and end. Why, right, Billy b i l l i e Right. Bones, bones and last one an a n n e a N n e. Okay, so double letters slide to the side. Let's go. Number four owned pounds. Okay, so when we talk about bouncing, let me sign the word Hello? For you. Okay. Finger spell it. H e l l o all rights. Nice. It's smooth. It's right here. Right? But if you go like this now, you may have wonderful energy, like, yes, I've been able to finger spell, and I'm actually doing it with the person. I'm so excited to do it. So you like. So while you're bouncing like crazy, the other person's like, Ha ha. What the heck is happening? So, for example, let's see. We have the name Henry, right? So it's there is close. It's easy to understand if you like. The other person is like this. I think there's an H in there. Something's happening, but they're kind of they're going to get dizzy. It is very difficult to communicate and to understand. Remember, the idea is clear communication. All right, so don't bounce. H e N r y nod. Okay. All right.
