How do you say world in sign language?

There is no single sign for "world" in American Sign Language (ASL). The sign you would use depends on the context of the word. Here are a few options:

1. "Earth" or "globe": This sign is made by making a circle with your dominant hand and then rotating it.

2. "Planet": This sign is made by touching your forehead with your index finger, then tracing a circle around it.

3. "Country": This sign is made by making a "C" shape with your dominant hand and then bringing it down towards your chest.

4. "World" using other signs: You can also use other signs to describe "world" depending on the specific meaning:

* "All countries": Use the sign for "country" and then spread your fingers out to indicate "all."

* "Everywhere": You can use a sign that indicates "everywhere" or "all over" depending on the context.

Remember: Sign language is very visual and contextual. The meaning of the sign can change based on facial expressions, body language, and the context of the conversation.

It's always best to learn from a qualified ASL instructor or a native signer to ensure you are using the correct signs and understanding the nuances of the language.
