Today, we’re going to learn how to sign Good Morning in sign language.

Making a beautiful cup of coffee in the morning for your sweetheart? If she’s deaf or hard of hearing, learning this simple wish in British sign language will make her day for sure.

So let’s get started.

Good Morning in Sign Language

Watch the full video, which we’ve posted below.

Don’t be concerned if it goes too rapidly for you. Each stage will be discussed in further depth below.

Now do the following. Before we begin, remember that BSL is a two-handed sign language. That suggests you’ll be using both hands to communicate.

However, there are certain signs in which we use our dominant hand to make one gesture and our non-dominant hand to finish the sign with helping gestures. Don’t, for example, switch your dominant hand in the middle of a sign. This will baffle the individual with whom you are conversing.

Now, the word “Good morning” consists of two signs. One for ‘good’ and the other for ‘morning’. First, we’ll sign ‘good’ and then ‘morning’ and that’ll complete the whole sign.

3. This is the ‘good’ part of the whole sign.

4. Now, spread out your right hand and keep a flat palm. Now touch your left shoulder with the tip of your fingers like the image above.
