NOTES:
 

CLASSIFIERS:  ASL classifiers or "depictive verbs" are special signs  that can be used to show size, shape, location, orientation, direction, and movement path. See: "Classifiers"

VACATION:  The sign "VACATION" can be used to mean: Holiday, "OFF" (off work), break (take a break).  If you initialize the sign VACATION with an "R" or do it with just the index and thumb, it can mean "retired."
