This two-handed ASL sign is produced as follows:
1. Posture the dominant hand in the “1” handshape on the lower lip, dominant palm facing back.
2. Move the dominant hand down so the index finger brushes the radial side of the nondominant hand.
3. Posture the nondominant hand in the “O” handshape in front of the center of the chest, nondominant palm facing down. Posture the dominant hand in the “1” handshape within a few inches of the radial (thumb) side of the nondominant hand.
