How to do sign is your in Sign Language?

You can't sign "is your" directly in American Sign Language (ASL). You would need to sign the whole sentence, using the appropriate signs and grammar. Here's how you can do it:

Method 1: Using "belong to"

1. Sign the subject: Sign the person or thing that something belongs to. For example, if you are asking about a book, sign "BOOK".

2. Sign "belong to": This is signed by touching your chin with your index finger and then pointing to the person you are asking.

3. Sign "YOU": Sign the pronoun "YOU".

Example:

"Is the book yours?" would be signed as "BOOK, belong to, YOU".

Method 2: Using "YOUR"

1. Sign the subject: Sign the person or thing that something belongs to. For example, if you are asking about a book, sign "BOOK".

2. Sign "YOUR": This is signed by extending your index and pinky fingers, then moving them down in a "Y" shape across your chest.

3. Sign "QUESTION MARK": This is signed by raising your eyebrows and tilting your head slightly forward.

Example:

"Is the book yours?" would be signed as "BOOK, YOUR, ?"

Important Notes:

* The exact signs and grammar will vary depending on the context and the person signing.

* ASL is a visual language, so make sure you are using the correct handshapes, movements, and facial expressions.

* If you are learning ASL, it is best to practice with a native signer or take a class to learn the correct way to sign.
