If you are a part of the deaf community or have experience working with deaf people, you may be familiar with the ideas of the sign language alphabet and fingerspelling.

You can learn to sign letters by finger-spelling. It consists of a set of hand gestures used to spell words or individual letters. This idea has a clear connection to the letter N.

The letter N is written in sign language using hand gestures, much way it is in spoken languages. Since the letter N doesn’t have any particular signals linked with it, we must learn the gestures that go along with it so that we can use them later to spell out things like people’s names.
