Hi,

 

Im still a newbie but I think you can just get away with signing Question.  Rather than Topic>Subject>Question

THE SIGNS
QUESTION? - Index finger and thumb tips touch to make make "O" shape which traces question mark shape in front of body.
 

Unless you want to phrase it in a way that you are asking a specific question.

The structure of asking a question in BSL is:

TOPIC > SUBJECT > QUESTION

e.g.

LIVE (topic) > YOU (subject) > WHERE? (question)

You can see this in the phrases:

Spoken English

British Sign Language

What is your name?

Name you what?

How old are you?

Age you what?

What job do you have?

Work you what? / Work you where?

Where do you live?

Live you where?

Are you Deaf, or hearing?
Deaf hearing you which?

 

 

Hope this helps :)
