How to sign “Rocks” in ASL
The BSL sign for “Rocks” isn't in our dictionary yet — it will be fingerspelled in BSL mode, never replaced with this ASL sign.
Step by step
- Close both hands into S fists, with your thumbs folded across your fingers.
- Hold the fists in front of your chest with the thumb sides facing each other and the palms facing down.
- Strike the knuckle sides of your fists together.
- Hit them together a second time, as if knocking two stones against each other.
- Keep the strikes crisp and close to your chest, letting the soundless knock carry the meaning.
