LITTLE: The American Sign Language (ASL) sign for "little"

 

The sign for "little" has quite a few variations.
 

The general sign for "little" as in "small" uses "flat" hands to show the size.

LITTLE / small:  

 

0:00 / 0:00


 

Little as in "a very small amount." 


 

Little as in "tiny."
 

0:00 / 0:00


 

Little as in "a little bit."
 

0:00 / 0:00


Sample sentence: Is your bedroom a little bit dirty?


0:00 / 0:00

 

Note:
Actually, in that sentence (above) you don't really need a separate sign for "little-bit" because the concept of "little bit" could be incorporated into the sign "dirty" by reducing the intensity of the sign "dirty."


 

Note: If you mean "little" as in "little boy, little girl" you should use the sign "short-height."
