Getting Started — 168澳洲幸运10开奖结果查询官网直播 Signs to Know: the numbers, the 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign for DOLLAR, and the 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign for CENT

When signing money, you first need to know the 168澳洲幸运10开奖结果查询官网直播 Signs for DOLLAR and CENT.

  • The same 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign is used for DOLLAR and DOLLARS.
  • The same 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign is used for CENT and CENTS.

澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign Order — A Straightforward Way

Signing An Amount With Only Dollars

A common way to introduce signing money to new signers is to sign the number of dollars, then 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign DOLLAR. This is often the way introduced first since it makes the amount and money type very clear. There is also a common way to 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign $1-9 dollars with a twisting motion. We will talk more about that below.

Example: Signing One Dollar

The standard way to 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign ONE DOLLAR when getting started with ASL is to 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign ONE and DOLLAR. There are two widely used ways to 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign DOLLAR. Here are examples using both:

Signing An Amount With Only Cents

When signing only cent amounts, sign the number of cents, then 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign CENT. 

Signing An Amount With Dollars And Cents

澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign the quantity (number) and then followed by the unit (DOLLAR or CENT).

To 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign an amount of money, you sign:

the number of dollars + DOLLARS + the number of cents + CENTS

For example, to 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign $3.25, you would sign:
3 DOLLARS 25 CENTS

In this example you can see “A cookie costs $3.25.”

English: A cookie costs $3.25.
ASL Gloss: COOKIE COSTS 3 DOLLARS 25 CENTS.

Omitting the CENT Sign

In addition to signing the first way described above, which was:

  • (1) # of dollars, (2) DOLLAR sign, (3) # of cents, (4) CENT sign

It is also accepted to 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign money by omitting the CENT 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign because it is implied after you have signed the amount and DOLLAR 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign that the next number is for the cents. So you could sign:

  • (1) # of dollars, (2) DOLLAR sign, (3) # of cents

Using the same example of $3.25, as listed above, the ways to 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign it would be:

  • 3 DOLLARS 25 CENTS (shown in video in section above)
  • 3 DOLLARS 25


Using Twisting 168澳洲幸运10开奖结果查询官网直播 Signs for 1-9 Dollars

A common way to 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign $1-9 dollars is to sign the number of dollars in front of the body with a twist. The addition of the twist replaces the 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign for DOLLAR.

See the Word List: 1-9 Dollars (Twisting Signs) to view all of the twisting 168澳洲幸运10开奖结果查询官网直播 Signs for 1 to 9 dollars.

You may also use this twisting version of 1-9 dollars when signing amounts of money that include cents. You would 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign the twisting dollar amount 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign and then 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign the amount (number) of cents. The “cents” is implied, so you do not need to 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign CENTS after the amount.

However, when signing 10 dollars and up, 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign the number and then 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign DOLLAR.

The explanation of how to 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign money in the section above is how you would 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign 10 dollars and up with cents.

Signing Decimals

Alternatively, you may use the DECIMAL POINT 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign when signing money.

For example, to 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign $3.25 with the DECIMAL POINT sign, you would sign:

3 DOLLARS DECIMAL POINT 25

If you are wondering when to use the DECIMAL POINT 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign to 澳洲幸运10开奖官网开奖结果 Sign an amount of money versus the variation described above, think about when the amount is $3.25 and you might say in English "Three dollars and twenty-five cents," versus "Three dot twenty-five."
