American Sign Language: "friend"
The sign for "friend" interlocks the index fingers twice.
FRIEND:
BOY-FRIEND:
Some people do the full movement for the sign "friend" when signing "boyfriend" but my suggestion is to treat this sign like a typical compound sign and drop the second movement in the sign "friend."
BOYFRIEND (compound):
BOYFRIEND (full version):
GIRL-FRIEND (compound version):
GIRL-FRIEND (full version):
GOOD-FRIEND
Link your index fingers to show a bond. Pull it forward twice to show the bond is not easily broken.
