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

The sign “liste langue des signes” refers to a list of sign languages, often used in discussions about different sign languages around the world or when introducing someone to various sign languages. This sign is particularly useful in educational settings or during conversations about deaf culture and the diversity within it.

How to Sign “Liste Langue Des Signes“

1. Start with your dominant hand in a flat, open handshape (like the letter “B”). Position it in front of your chest, palm facing inward.
2. Move your hand downward slightly and then to the side, creating a sweeping motion as if you are presenting a list.
3. As you move your hand, draw your fingers slightly apart to emphasize the concept of “list.” Maintain a neutral facial expression, but feel free to add an inquisitive look to show interest in the topic.

Common Mistakes

• Some learners may use a fist instead of a flat handshape, which can change the meaning of the sign.
• Others might forget to include the sweeping motion, making the sign look static instead of dynamic.
• Inconsistent facial expressions can lead to misunderstandings about the intent of the sign.
