Knowing how to sign the word "birthday" can come in handy when you have a deaf or hard of hearing coworker. Imagine it's your coworker's birthday and everyone is singing the traditional "Happy Birthday" song, but they can't hear it. Instead, you sneakily sign "birthday" to them and their eyes light up with appreciation. It not only shows your inclusivity and effort to make them feel included, but it also adds a touch of whimsy to their special day. Plus, who knows? Maybe they'll teach you some fun signs for future celebrations!
This sign beautifully captures the joy of celebrating another trip around the sun, making it a delightful addition to your ASL vocabulary.
