American Sign Language: "man"


There are several versions of this sign.

They are all out there being used by various people.
 I use the first one because it is more popular where I live, but I think the second version makes more "sense."

 

MAN:  (Version A)
The first part of this sign is similar to the sign "father" and then moves down to touch the chest.

0:00 / 0:00


(p.s. If you start this sign at the chin and move it down to the chest it means "woman.")
(p.p.s. No, I don't know where you can buy a cool sweater like the one I'm wearing here.)
(p.p.p.s. No, it doesn't matter how much you offer me, I won't sell you mine. It was a gift.)
 



MAN:  (Version B)

0:00 / 0:00

 



MAN:  (Version C)
Note: this version isn't used much.  This third version could be used to indicate that someone is no longer a child but is a man (male + adult).

0:00 / 0:00
