How to sign “Fair” in ASL
The BSL sign for “Fair” isn't in our dictionary yet — it will be fingerspelled in BSL mode, never replaced with this ASL sign.
Step by step
- Bend the fingers of both hands downward into loose bent handshapes.
- Hold both hands up in front of your chest with the fingertips pointing toward each other.
- Bring the fingertips of both hands together until they nearly meet in the middle.
- Keep both palms facing inward toward each other, not angled downward, as the fingers come together.
- Use a neutral, even expression — this sign also covers the senses of equal and level.
Practice tip
Lifeprint glosses this EQUAL-[fair, level] — the inward palms and meeting fingertips picture balance.
