BARE: The American Sign Language (ASL) sign for "bare"

The sign for "BARE" depends on the rest of your sentence.

 

BARE as in "empty, naked, nude, available" is often signed:

 

0:00 / 0:00

 

Note: The sign "NAKED" can be done by aiming the "EMPTY" sign (on both hands) at the body and moving downward.

I don't have a video of that in my video bank yet but it is a legit approach. It is a complex sign though and easily confused with a version of the sign "depressed."

 


If you are using "BARE" as in "bare my soul" you could sign:

 

BARE my soul / BARE my chest

0:00 / 0:00

 

BARE my soul / hand you my heart

0:00 / 0:00

 


 

EMPTY / DESERTED: This version can be used for "bare" shelves or an area extending outward to the sides is "bare," deserted, or empty:

 

0:00 / 0:00

 

The street (extending forward) was BARE, EMPTY, or devoid of cars and/or people etc.:

 

0:00 / 0:00

 


If you mean "bare" as in "minimal" then you can use the SCANT sign (which also can mean delete or edit).

 

0:00 / 0:00

 

TWENTY-YEAR PAST-(ago) AGO HE/SHE TOOK ASL. NOW HE/SHE REMEMBER SCANT-[little-bit/edit/expel-from]
... or in other words "that person" barely remembers any ASL.
