How to sign "with" in ASL

How to Sign "With"

“With” is signed by bringing both hands into “A” handshapes (fists) and touching the knuckles together:

  • Form the letter “A” with both hands (thumbs on the side of the fists).
  • Bring your fists together so the knuckles meet, close to your chest.

Tips

  • Think of two things coming together — “with” someone or something.
  • Hands should meet evenly, not off-center.

Common Mistakes

  • Using open hands instead of “A” handshape.
  • Not touching the hands together — contact is important.

Think: “Two together — you’re with me.”
