In American Sign Language (ASL), "where" is shown with a special hand gesture. You hold up your dominant hand. Extend your index finger and shake it gently side to side. The palm faces outward. The other fingers curl into the palm. A questioning facial expression often goes with this gesture. Raised eyebrows can show inquiry. The sign for "where" is used a lot in daily talks. It's helpful when asking for directions or about a place. Knowing ASL's cultural context is key. Facial expressions and body language are important. They help show meaning and emotion. In ASL, questions need specific signals. Eyebrow movements can show if it's a yes/no question or a wh-question like "where."
