How to Sign "Clean" in American Sign Language (ASL)

In ASL, you make "clean" by brushing one palm across the other, moving from bottom to fingertips. This simple movement copies how people usually clean things in real life, making it easy for new learners to understand and remember the meaning behind the gesture. You do it twice. The way you move your hands can show how clean something is - faster means very clean, and slower means a little clean. This sign works for talking about cleaning real things like tables or floors, and also for ideas like having a clean record or clear conscience. It's an easy sign to learn.
