Sign Language

scilly_guy · 03-09-2008, 01:21 PM

Hello, I am trying to find the sign language for "This video (film) is a waste of (our) time."
Any help would be appreciated as well as a quick reply as I need it for a university assignment.

Thanks for your link, couldn't find a sign for waste, as in waste of time. That is all I really need and it should make sense.

Am I asking a lot, am I making foolish assumptions? All I want to know is how to sign that something is a waste of time, I would not have thought that is too much to ask. I do not mean to come off as rude I have just left my assignment until the last minute and I need to be able to sign "This video is a waste of time" so that I can make the video which I am talking about. And then I need to edit it and talk about it.

I am terrible at describing signs but I will try my best...using your non-dominant hand, lay it flat with the palm facing up and using your other hand (dominant) start out with a fist placed on top of the palm, extend your dominant hand out in a straight line...while doing that, change your dominant hand from a fist to a "5" shape. That's the sign for waste and then use the "time" sign afterwards

Hope that is clear?

That was impressively skillful on several levels, Wolfie. I wish everyone's signing was as clear.
