Hi, I'm Meredith, and now it's nearing the
holidays, the new year... it's a good time
[13]
to review family signs! And this is
"family"
[19]
It's an "F" handshape in a circle: FAMILY.
[34]
and that's FAMILY.
[39]
Mother or mom
[46]
you may also see it where the movement
is a little different, where you wiggle
[49]
the fingers like this: mother
[53]
so mother or mother -- it's the same thing
[64]
the sign "father" looks similar; the
difference is that it's not at your
[70]
chin; it moves to the forehead: father or
dad
[78]
father. and again the movement can
[84]
change to that wiggle
[87]
So: father.
[94]
"parents"
so it's the same handshapes as mother
[98]
and father: parents
[107]
baby. baby.
[121]
you may see differences
like smaller like this: baby.
[125]
You don't need to make a huge gesture.
[128]
Just baby is fine.
[132]
daughter -- and it's similar
[137]
like girl and baby became daughter.
[143]
That's the hand shape: daughter. Goes in the nook of the elbow.
[146]
daughter. daughter. And you may
still see it with the girl hand shape to
[154]
start: daughter.
[156]
daughter or daughter
either of those
[160]
and for boys it's similar starts up here: son.
it's again: son. and again you might see
[171]
it start with boy like boy baby: son.
[178]
son or son. Son.
[181]
Children. Children.
[186]
Like you're patting them on the heads: children
[196]
and just to let you know, here's the sign
for "kids" -- kids. kids.
[199]
Sister. So it starts
[210]
at the chin, and comes down: sister.
It's from the signs girl and same, so girl,
[216]
same became "sister". sister.
[229]
sister. and for boy, it's the same thing:
boy and same became "brother"!
[246]
Brothers and sisters are siblings. that's the sign
"siblings"
[253]
for example: (demonstration)
[265]
and that's "siblings". Wife, wife.
And again it was a compound sign:
[277]
"girl"and "marry" became wife. Wife.
[288]
And again you may see it signed girl-marry, means wife. same thing. And for husband
[298]
"husband" this one starts at the forehead.
Husband and you might see boy-marry,
[309]
that's fine, but just be careful not to
use the index finger -- that's different;
[312]
it means "believe". "believe", it's different
from "husband". husband.
[324]
Partner. Partner.
[327]
You can say "my partner"; partner.
[329]
Another sign you might see is "sweetheart"
[333]
"sweetheart" means someone you're in a
relationship with. "sweetheart".
[339]

children and that kind of thing.
