I use my right hand most of the time, though I do catch myself using left hand every once in a while, when I am busy doing something like writing, on computer, cooking or whatever, and talking to someone at same time.

Kalista · 03-09-2004, 02:09 PM

I can use both two hands to do fingerspelling... When I hold something on my right hand.

gnarlydorkette · 03-09-2004, 02:10 PM

Hm, i am a right-handed but I spell clearly with my left hand.... I mainly use right hand to fingerspell but if I want to fingerspell in a slow pace, i use left hand since it is not enabled to rapidly fingerspell like my right hand.

so therefore i use my left hand with hearing people and right with deaf people

Fly Free · 03-09-2004, 03:12 PM

my primary hand i use for signing/fingerspelling is the right hand and like Kuifje has said has happened to me on occasions too when i have to sign/fingerspell with my left hand altho it can get a bit sloppy with my left hand LOL

Angel · 03-09-2004, 03:20 PM

I use my right hand to fingerspelling most of the time...Sometimes, I use my left hand...

Mizzou · 03-10-2004, 12:21 AM

vote both -- use the both hands for ABC's same time?? or spell out Dog n Cat same time?? Impossible! I use right hands but when I have object on my right so I have say it on my left

TweetyBird · 03-10-2004, 01:28 AM

i use both hands... never know one of hand get hurt and use other hand!!!

Ziusudra · 03-10-2004, 01:46 AM

Well I don't use ASL, and I use AUSLAN, so it requires both hands. But I use one hand for ASL if my other hand is tied up.

Opal · 03-10-2004, 03:34 AM

Both hands in AUSLAN!

Oddball · 03-10-2004, 03:52 AM

Well, i do use my left hand for fingerspelling. sometimes, i use right hand as alternative. Both hands can be SLOPPY due to my ADHD symptoms...be prepare for my 100 mph signing! LOL

03-10-2004, 05:48 AM

I use both hands easily and have no problems fingerspelling, but being right-handed, I use right hand often.

GalaxyAngel · 03-10-2004, 10:08 AM

Sweet_KJ · 03-10-2004, 06:16 PM

Voted both, altho I'm a bit sloppy with my left, but like most if my Right is currently busy... then left would have to do

CatoCooper13 · 03-10-2004, 09:20 PM

shezzbeav · 03-11-2004, 12:59 AM
