How well do you know fingerspelling? Notice what happens when there are two of the same letters.

Fingerspelling requires a lot of practice to become fluent.

Here are ways you can practice fingerspelling:

1. License plates (hopefully not while driving)
2. Street signs
3. Looking in the mirror
4. With a friend
5. Names of T.V. programs
6. Names of friends

Remember, fingerspelling is used when expressing a proper noun, or a word you do not know. Fingerspelling an entire conversation may be too much for the receiver.
