Using a claw "5" hand position, you move your hand from your forehead towards the back of the head, as if describing the lion's mane.

can you tell me how to do your welcome in asl?

[SigningTime]

"You're welcome" is actually not used a lot in the deaf community, but the accepted sign is the slightly curved flat hand. Place it in the area of the upper chest with palm facing down. Then imagine that there is a basketball on your chest and you are going to run your hand across and under the ball. The sign supposedly started in the late 20th century when gentlemen would take their hats off, curving them around towards the chest and bending at the waist.

Because the parents are told that their Deaf children will never learn to "talk" if they use sign language. I say "so what!" I think it's better for Deaf children to have a natural language (sign language) and learn how to read and write english.
