How to Sign “Living Room” in Sign Language
The living room is often the central gathering place in a home, where family and friends come together to relax and spend time together. It can also be called the "family room" or "den".
Signing “Living Room”
- Hand shape: First, form your dominant hand into an “L” handshape. Then, form both hands into a closed “5” handshape.
