Iconic and Arbitrary Signs: testing Jesse Denick

Testing a friend's ability to translate iconic (sign represents the noun or verb) and arbitrary (more complex sign) signs in ASL.
**If anyone was to get 5 or more signs correct, they could earn $1 from me!**

Correct Answers:
Iconic Signs:
1) Ball (Jesse's answer: "Together")
2) Window (Jesse: "Wall")
3) Deer (Jesse: "Moose") *I'll give him full credit for that :)*
4) Penguin (Jesse: "Penguin") *Right-o!*
5) Golf (Jesse: "Tennis") *I'll give him half a point for that because of the similarities in signs!*

Arbitrary Signs:
1) Wrestling (Jesse: "Mix")
2) Cat (Jesse: "Beard")
3) Orange (Jesse: "Hairy chin")
4) Picture (Jesse: "Cup")
5) Red (Jesse: "To Remember")

Jesse's total score 2.5/10

I thought it was moose instead of deer, does that count?

@chainz094 Congratulations!! If you were actually in the video you would've won yourself a nice little George Washington ;)

I'd like to see their reaction when you tell them what the signs were...

[coda8810]

@phreerider That is a great suggestion!! I'll definitely keep that in mind for upcoming videos :)
