How to sign "who" in ASL

How to Sign "Who"

“Who” is signed by tapping an “L” handshape twice at your chin with slight facial expression:

• Form an “L” handshape with your dominant hand (thumb and index extended).
• Hold it near your chin.
• Tap the tip of your index finger to your chin twice gently.
• Raise your eyebrows slightly to indicate questioning.

Tips

• Use eyebrow raise to show the question tone.
• Do two distinct taps—don’t roll or slide the finger.

Common Mistakes

• Using an index finger only shape instead of “L.”
• Tapping shoulder or cheek—must be chin.

Think: “L at chin, eyebrow up twice—who?”
