what is "thank you" and "you're welcome" in sign language?

Question

Someone told me thank you and you're welcome is the same sign, but that doesn't seem right, is it?

so....... what is the difference of the mouth and face movement?

Answer 1

No they are wrong. Thanks u is just one hand going down from your chin to the air just like aslpro said only with 1 hand. Signs are different when you live in dif. cities.

your welcome:http://www.aslpro.com/cgi-bin/aslpro/aslpro

Answer 2

Thank You In Sign Language

Answer 3

Hi. The original sign for "Thank You" is used with TWO hands at the same time. When you sign it quickly and/or informally, one hand is typically used.

Sign for 'thank you': http://www.aslpro.com/main/t/thank.swf

The sign for your welcome is here: http://www.aslpro.com/main/w/welcome.swf

As for face and mouth movement:

For "Thank You" - face looks grateful! Mouth makes the movements for a silent 'thank you'

For 'Your Welcome' - face looks exactly like it would if you were saying it with your voice. Perhaps a tad more emphasis using your eyebrows in an upward motion. You mouth does the same thing, just move your mouth in a silent "Welcome" :-)

Good luck and keep at it! :-)

Answer 4

They are the same hand sign. The difference is in the mouth and face movements.
