glasses / Gallaudet


Discussion:  If you use a single motion it can mean either "glasses" or Gallaudet.
If you need to clarify between the two, you could use a double motion for glasses or you could use a two handed version of glasses. 


GLASSES or GALLAUDET or "Moses"


GLASSES: (eyewear)


Note: another way to sign glasses is touch a modified "C" hand (index and thumb) to your cheek and brow to show the rim of the glasses, move the sign out from your face a half-inch then move it back to your face again.


GOGGLES: (or glasses)
This version could be used to mean things like "goggles."  If you use a single larger movement it means "put on goggles."  If you use two smaller movements it means "goggles or glasses."
