LOOK-FOR

Make a C with your dominant hand then move counterclockwise in front of your face.

6

FIND

Make a 5 with your dominant hand and lift it up into an F.

Make an S with your nondominant hand and a flat handshape with your dominant hand. Place your dominant hand on the back of your nondominant and pull it back into and A.

Z at the Beginning

When fingerspelling with a Z at the beginning of the word you sign the Z then drop down to fingerspelling the rest of the word.


(Notice where my fingerspelled word starts and ends)

  • Zoo

  • Zulu

  • Zane

  • Zelda

  • Zebra

Z in the Middle

When fingerspelling with a Z in the middle of a word, the part of the word signed after the Z will be signed lower than the part before the Z.


(Notice where my fingerspelled word starts and ends and when the transition lower happened)

  • Size

  • Maze

  • Suzy

  • Suzanne

  • Blazer

Z at the End

When fingerspelling with a Z at the end of the word, the Z will end lower than the rest of the fingerspelled word.
