The sign for "thing" can mean, "materials," "supplies," "items," etc.
THING:
Sample sentence: "Do you like to learn new things?"
0:00 / 0:00
Notes:
The sign "thing" is not used as part of the sign for "something."
The "something" sign can be used to mean "something / someone / single / alone / only."
SOMETHING:
Also see: SOMETHING
Every once in a while I see people combine the signs for "some" and "thing" to mean "something."
That has always seemed "off" to me and I don't recommend it. The signs "SOME" and "THING" when used together means "some things." As in: "I will bring some things to the yard sale."
See: SOME
