BELIEVE:
Notes:
I do this sign with an index finger and then modified "C" handshapes. But some (many) people start the sign with their dominant hand in a loose "C" or "B"-handshape. I don't do that because I like to avoid confusion with the sign for "HUSBAND." I like to clearly show the "THINK" part of the sign by starting with a "1"-handshape.
