How to sign “Trainings” in ASL
The BSL sign for “Trainings” isn't in our dictionary yet — it will be fingerspelled in BSL mode, never replaced with this ASL sign.
Step by step
- Hold your non-dominant index finger upright in front of your chest.
- Make a fist with your dominant hand, the thumb resting along the side like an A handshape.
- Press the thumb side of the fist against the top edge of the upright index finger.
- Brush the fist back and forth along the finger two or three times, as if polishing a shoe.
- Keep both palms facing sideways while the brushing stays short and quick.
- Stay relaxed and neutral — swap the A fist for a T fist only if you must mark the English word.
