How to sign “Enjoying” in ASL
The BSL sign for “Enjoying” 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 flat open hands with fingertips together, like the starting position of the PLEASE sign.
- Place your right flat hand on your upper chest and your left flat hand on your belly, an inch or two out from your body.
- Circle both hands at the same time in opposite directions, with the right hand looping clockwise and the left hand counterclockwise.
- Angle your palms inward toward your torso so the fingertips of each hand point toward the other hand.
- Wear a warm, content smile while signing, since the sign conveys pleasure and delight.
Practice tip
“Enjoying” is signed with the base ENJOY sign — ASL/BSL marks ongoing action on the sign, not with a separate word.
Fingerspell “Enjoying”
Letter by letter — a handy backup if you forget the sign above. This is not the sign itself.
Note: J and Z are signed with motion, not a static handshape.
