Cursus Langue Des Signes en Langue des Signes Française (LSF)

The sign “cursus langue des signes” refers to a course or curriculum related to sign language. It is commonly used in educational contexts, particularly when discussing learning opportunities for sign language, either for beginners or advanced students. This sign can also be used in conversations about teaching methods and resources available for learning sign language.

How to Sign “Cursus Langue Des Signes“

1. Start with your dominant hand in a flat handshape (like a “B” handshape). Position it in front of your chest.
2. Move your dominant hand forward in a small arc while flattening your fingers slightly to indicate the concept of “course.”
3. Next, use your non-dominant hand to form a “C” handshape, placing it near your dominant hand to represent “langue des signes.”
4. Gently rotate your non-dominant hand while keeping it in place to signify the idea of sign language.
5. Maintain an engaged and friendly facial expression throughout the sign, as this conveys enthusiasm for the subject of learning.

Common Mistakes

• Forgetting to use both hands can lead to confusion, as the sign emphasizes the dual nature of “course” and “language.”
• Using a tense or neutral facial expression may unintentionally convey disinterest; a friendly smile enhances the message.
• Not using the proper handshape can cause misunderstandings with other signs, so be mindful of your fingers’ positioning.
