How to sign “Cares” in ASL
The BSL sign for “Cares” isn't in our dictionary yet — it will be fingerspelled in BSL mode, never replaced with this ASL sign.
Step by step
- Shape both hands into horizontal "V" hands, extending the index and middle fingers out sideways.
- Stack the dominant "V" hand on top of the non-dominant "V" hand in front of your body.
- Move both hands forward together in a small circular motion, repeating the circle twice.
- Keep both "V" hands horizontal and stacked, with the fingertips pointing forward as they circle.
- Keep a warm, gentle expression; this sign conveys watchful, attentive kindness.
