Hey signers, are you ready for some receptive fingerspelling practice?
Great! Now if you don't know what that means then here's the rundown. Fingerspelling is taking the

you are practiced up on your ASL alphabet. If not, check out the video down in the description

Remember when you are reading the word, do just that.
Read the word. Don't look at each individual letter. It is the same practice as reading a text.
You are training your brain to read fingerspelling. Okay, are you ready? Awesome!
