How do you say Mark in sign language?

There are two main ways to sign "Mark" in American Sign Language (ASL):

1. The initialism sign:

* This is the most common way to sign "Mark."

* You make the letter "M" handshape with your dominant hand and then tap your forehead with it.

* This sign is similar to how you would sign any other name that starts with "M."

2. The "Mark" sign:

* This sign is less common, but it's still used by some signers.

* You make a "C" handshape with your dominant hand and then tap your forehead with it.

* This sign is more specific to the name "Mark" and is not used for other names starting with "M."

The best way to learn how to sign "Mark" is to find a qualified ASL teacher or interpreter who can teach you the correct handshape and movement.
