Hello! I am in ASL 1 and recently came across a sign I don't know. It is signed by using a five-hand position (open palm) (dominant hand) and the thumb is tapped to the dominant side shoulder.

I'm new to this site and ASL in general so I apologize if my description was a little confusing. Thank you!

There are two signs that come to mind based on your description.  FINE, as in I'm fine.  People will use it to mean OK sometimes as well. As in saying, That's fine, or that's ok.  I"m fine or I'm ok. 

 

It can also mean FANCY if the hand is used in kind of a forward circular motion.

      How'd y'all, my name is James, but generally I go by JE. I am a deaf / hard of hearing individual in New York State. I was raised in an oral school and home, it was hard but I learned. I didn't even know now ASL, or schools for the Deaf existed until I was in my 20's. I am a mechanic by profession and work in an industrial laundry. I have self-taught myself ASL, but don't get much chance to utilize or practice it. I am hoping that will all change here. I look forward to learning and growing here, if you know of any other deaf chat platforms please do share. God Bless you all!
