DINNER: The American Sign Language (ASL) sign for "dinner"
Note: Also see the explanation for breakfast.
Dinner has two forms. A compound form, and an initialized form.
DINNER: [EAT+NIGHT]
DINNER: [initialized]
This form can either use a small rotational movement (like slurping soup from a bowl close to your mouth), or a "stuffing your mouth with food" movement that taps the lips with the fingertips of the thumb, middle, ring, and pinkie fingers.
