What is the sign language for neighbor?

There isn't one universally accepted sign for "neighbor" in American Sign Language (ASL).

However, there are a few ways to sign the concept:

* "Person next door": You can sign "person" and then "next door" using the sign for "door" and a gesture indicating next to it.

* "Person who lives near": You can sign "person" and then "live" and "near."

* Contextual signs: Depending on the situation, you can use other signs to convey "neighbor" like "friend" or "family" if the neighbor is someone you know well.

The best way to understand the specific sign used will be to ask a deaf person in your local community or learn from a qualified ASL teacher. They can provide you with the most accurate and culturally appropriate sign.
