The word "scads" is a funny little English word that means "lots
of."
In ASL the sign SCADS can be used to show lots of people or animals
in a place or area.
For example, suppose you wanted to say that there was a huge turnout
(people showing up) for a political rally, you could use this sign
to show that "masses of people" were there.
