How to sign “Me” in ASL
BSL and ASL are different languages — this is the American sign. See the BSL sign for “Me” instead
Step by step
- Extend the index finger of your dominant hand, tucking the other fingers into a fist.
- Point the fingertip at the center of your chest.
- Touch your chest lightly with the fingertip in one short motion.
- Keep the touch at chest height and hold a neutral expression.
- Drop this sign whenever the verb's direction already shows who is involved.
Practice tip
Often you can drop ME entirely — in ASL the verb's location already shows who is involved.
