Wh Question Signs
***Remember when asking a question and especially when signing
USE CORRECT FACIAL EXPRESSION
What?
'What is that?' or "What is This?' finish the sign by pointing to the object.
Who?
I prefer this NZSL sign as the Makaton version is very similar to 'What' and can lead to confusion.
Point your hand to who you are asking about (person, photo...) and wiggle you fingers.
Where?
How?
How Many?
Hands start crossed slightly at chest height then wiggle your fingers slowly as you move them to the edge of your body.

How are you?
There are differing ways to sign this at Sommerville but this is the most consistent throughout NZSL and Makaton.
