How to sign “November” in ASL
The BSL sign for “November” isn't in our dictionary yet — it will be fingerspelled in BSL mode, never replaced with this ASL sign.
Step by step
- Fold your fingers down and tuck your thumb between your middle and ring fingers for N.
- Round your fingertips up to your thumb, opening into a clear O at chest height.
- Spread your index and middle fingers apart into a sharp V to finish.
- Flow the three letters together with your palm facing forward, keeping an even rhythm.
- Hold a neutral expression; mouthing 'November' helps the spelling read at a glance.
Practice tip
The N-to-O transition is the tricky part — keep your thumb tucked as your fingertips round upward.
