Daron McNutt Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Transcript: So, in the past I’ve seen a couple different versions of the sign HOPE. (I show both) I use the first one, but I’ve been noticing more and more people using the second variation. So now I’m curious, is the difference regional? Or a definition difference? Or maybe the second is just a new version? I dont know but let me know your thoughts! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolando Lucero Villalobos Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 *Also, I could of used the same facial expression for both signs. Again, it's just my opinion, so I put more emphasis on the second version because I think it has more meaning to it. (Facial expressions are important!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deatei Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 I'm not sure if this is correct, but I use the first version for the noun (ex. there's hope for the future) and the second version for the verb (ex. I hope you have a good day). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysandor Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 I use the first version. The second version looks like it might actually come from hearing people. It's a thing we do when we're hoping for something. Usually accompanied with someone saying something like, "Fingers crossed, I hope I get that job." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
