ASL word of the day...Candle


Candle n.  A stick of wax with a wick for burning: light a candle.
same sign used for flame, glow.

  • represents the flame on a candle: With the extended right index finger touching the heel of the left 5 hand, palm facing right, wiggle the left fingers.

A Christmas candle is a lovely thing:
It makes no noise at all
But softly gives itself away;
While quite unselfish, it grows small
