INSULT: The American Sign Language (ASL) sign for "insult / offend"
The sign for "insult" uses an index finger. Move the finger forward and up with a twisting motion. I know what you are thinking. Let's face it, this is a rude-looking little sign eh?
INSULT / offend:
Sample sentence: RECENT YOU INSULT ANY-ONE? (Have you recently insulted anyone?)
Note: The sign for "insult" is directional. If you insult me, the sign moves in toward me and glances off my chest.
"I'm insulted"
Notes:
And while we are at it, also see: "MOCK"
