SEE



The sign SEE can be seen in the video above. She says, "See you later," and signs, "SEE-you LATER." The sign SEE is formed by taking the middle finger of the V handshape to your cheekbone and moving it slightly away from you. You move the sign toward the person you are talking to or toward the object of your sentence.


See you later.



This phrase is signed as: "SEE-YOU LATER." The sign SEE moves toward the person you are talking to. The sign LATER is made by taking the L-handshape and moving your wrist from palm-forward to palm-down (it refers to the hands moving on a clock).
