How to sign “Friday” in ASL
BSL and ASL are different languages — this is the American sign. See the BSL sign for “Friday” instead
Step by step
- Make the letter F with your dominant hand, thumb and index pinched in a circle.
- Hold the handshape up at chest height with your palm facing forward.
- Trace a small clockwise circle with the F handshape, driving the motion from your elbow.
Practice tip
Initial-letter handshape plus a clockwise circle — Monday through Saturday all share this recipe.
