How do you say the word revolution in ASL?

You can sign "revolution" in ASL in a few ways, depending on the context and the specific meaning you want to convey:

1. Using the sign "REVOLUTION"

* This is the most common and direct way to sign "revolution."

* It's a complex sign with several parts:

* Start with your dominant hand in a "5" handshape, palm facing you.

* Move your hand forward, rotating your wrist so your palm faces outward, then back in, ending with your palm facing you.

* This movement represents a turning or change.

* At the end, bring your hand to your forehead, palm facing you, to represent "revolution."

2. Using "CHANGE" and "BIG"

* If you want to emphasize the change aspect of a revolution, you can sign "CHANGE" (changing handshape from "5" to "flat" and moving it forward) and then "BIG" (using a "B" handshape and signing "big").

3. Describing the specific event

* You could also sign a description of the specific revolution you're referring to, using signs like "FIGHT," "PEOPLE," "GOVERNMENT," etc., along with appropriate facial expressions and context.

Remember that ASL is a visual language and relies heavily on context, facial expressions, and body language. The best way to learn how to sign "revolution" is to practice with a qualified ASL teacher or interpreter.
