How do you say 'How are you' in sign language?

Answer 1

You would use the syntax of "How you" in English. To sign how you take both your hands and bring them together in front of you with hands losely held till your knuckles touch then twist them upwards at the wrist till your palms face up. You then would sign you by pointing at who you are speaking to. Another option in a more informal setting is to use the slang sign for "What's up?". To sign this, you touch your left middle finger to your left shoulder cap and your right middle finger to your right shoulder cap, keeping both hands open and flat with fingers spread. You then move your hands up and out from your shoulder caps in a quick, short motion.

Answer 2

Start by putting both of your hands in a thumbs up position. If you look at your fingers there are three sections to them which are separated by your knuckles. You want the middle sections to be touching each other while still in the thumbs up position. Then you twist your wrists so that one thumb is pointing slightly toward you and the other is pointing slightly away from you. Then you point at the person with your dominant hand while placing the other hand by your side. It is important to note that your eyebrows should be furrowed.
