Hey Dr. Vicars!
First, thank you for your hard work and dedication for lifeprint.com. Your work is NOT in vain! I truly couldn't afford to take ASL in a paid college setting. Thank you so much!
Now, when I looked up Police, there's a video. What is the last sign in the video (2 ”h” hands slide against each other)? Thank you in advance!

Dear Kim,
That sign is one of the variations of the sign for "soon."
See: SOON
