ASL is Contextual: Signs often depend on the context of the conversation. "I am done" could mean:
* Finished a task: You could sign "FINISH" and then point to the task.
* No longer interested: "DONE" with a slight shake of the head can imply you're finished with something.
* Tired/Exhausted: The sign for "TIRED" would convey this meaning.
Common Solutions:
* "FINISH" + CONTEXT: Sign "FINISH" and then point to the object or activity you've completed.
* "DONE" + SHAKE: Sign "DONE" and shake your head slightly to emphasize you're finished.
* "I" + "DONE": Sign "I" and then "DONE", making sure to clearly express the subject.
Remember: It's always best to learn ASL from a qualified teacher or resource. They can provide context and ensure your signs are accurate.
