Dr. Bill,
Is there one accepted sign for bully? Especially one that would be
used in an elementary school.
Thank you for your help!
Sincerely,

Hello Erin,
Yes, there is a specific
sign for "bully." It forms "horns" on the dominant hand (as a
"Y" hand) and then presses the knuckles of that hand up against the
non-dominant upright index finger and twists the dominant hand
twice (the non-dominant hand doesn't move).

Video: DURING ELEMENTARY SCHOOL HAPPEN ANYONE BULLY YOU?
BULLY:
"Have you been bullied?"
Picture notes: Here is a picture clipped where I'm asking if someone has
been "bullied." Normally the facial expression for the sign BULLY is that of
someone who is being "mean" or "disgusting." However, in this picture my
eyebrows are up because I'm asking a "yes or no question."
