" and " ."
Normally the sign HOME makes a double touch to the cheek (first near the mouth, then higher up toward the ear).
Normally the sign WORK makes a double movement (whacking the non-dominant fist with the dominant fist twice).

But for the sign "HOMEWORK" you just touch the cheek and whack your non-dominant hand .

HOMEWORK in sign language

Homework is definitely one of ASL 101 students' first words within the first days of classes. Such an important ASL word to add to your core vocabulary, yea.

ASL sign for HOMEWORK

How to sign "homework" in American Sign Language. Like the English word, this ASL sign is also a compound word.

Meaning: schoolwork that a student is required to do at home; schoolwork assigned to students to be completed outside the classroom.

Pronunciation/articulation: Dominant "flat O" handshape with its fingertips touching on the lower cheek near the mouth and then tapping on the upper cheek a bit away from the mouth; then dominant "S" handshape (palm orientation down) taps twice on the top of the passive "S" handshape (palm orientation down).

My hearing ASL students' eyeballs perk up whenever I use one of those other important ASL words in classroom: TEST , QUIZ , EXAM , ASSIGNMENT .

More: DEADLINE , DUE .

No homework? Ooh, ya lucky. No? So you want some extra homework? All right, you're indeed motivated. You can do some more exercises such as fingerspelling receptive skill practice or browse some tutorials in the Learn section .

Search/Filter : Enter a keyword in the filter/search box to see a list of available words with the "All" selection. Click on the page number if needed. Click on the blue link to look up the word. For best result, enter a partial word to see variations of the word.

Screenshot of dictionary search with notes

Alphabetical letters : It's useful for 1) a single-letter word (such as A, B, etc.) and 2) very short words (e.g. "to", "he", etc.) to narrow down the words and pages in the list.

For best result, enter a short word in the search box, then select the alphetical letter (and page number if needed), and click on the blue link.

Screenshot of dictionary search with notes

Don't forget to click "All" back when you search another word with a different initial letter.

If you cannot find (perhaps overlook) a word but you can still see a list of links, then keep looking until the links disappear! Sharpening your eye or maybe refine your alphabetical index skill. :)

Add a Word : This dictionary is not exhaustive; ASL signs are constantly added to the dictionary. If you don't find a word/sign, you can send your request (only if a single link doesn't show in the result).

Videos : The first video may be NOT the answer you're looking for. There are several signs for different meanings, contexts, and/or variations. Browsing all the way down to the next search box is highly recommended.

Video speed : Signing too fast in the videos? See HELP in the footer.

ASL has its own grammar and structure in sentences that works differently from English. For plurals, verb inflections, word order, etc., learn grammar in the "ASL Learn" section. For search in the dictionary, use the present-time verbs and base words. If you look for "said", look up the word "say". Likewise, if you look for an adjective word, try the noun or vice versa. E.g. The ASL signs for French and France are the same. If you look for a plural word, use a singular word.

How to sign homework in American Sign Language

Sign #1 (1 of 1), sign instructions:.

This sign is done by signing "home" and then "work". However, in this instance "home" is signed by only pressing your hand on your face once instead of twice. After this, sign "work" by having your non-dominant hand in front of you with your palm orientation downward and your dominant hand tapping against your non-dominant hand 2 times.

In order to protect our community and marketplace, Etsy takes steps to ensure compliance with sanctions programs. For example, Etsy prohibits members from using their accounts while in certain geographic locations. If we have reason to believe you are operating your account from a sanctioned location, such as any of the places listed above, or are otherwise in violation of any economic sanction or trade restriction, we may suspend or terminate your use of our Services. Members are generally not permitted to list, buy, or sell items that originate from sanctioned areas. This includes items that pre-date sanctions, since we have no way to verify when they were actually removed from the restricted location. Members are also generally not permitted to ship items to or from sanctioned areas. Etsy reserves the right to request that sellers provide additional information, disclose an item's country of origin in a listing, or take other steps to meet compliance obligations. It is important that members provide complete and accurate information regarding the origin of items on the Etsy marketplace to ensure compliance with sanctions programs. We may disable listings or cancel transactions that present a risk of violating this policy.

In addition to complying with OFAC and applicable local laws, Etsy members should be aware that other countries may have their own trade restrictions and that certain items may not be allowed for export or import under international laws. You should consult the laws of any jurisdiction when a transaction involves international parties.

Finally, Etsy members should be aware that third-party payment processors, such as PayPal, may independently monitor transactions for sanctions compliance and may block transactions as part of their own compliance programs. Etsy has no authority or control over the independent decision-making of these providers.

The economic sanctions and trade restrictions that apply to your use of the Services are subject to change, so members should check sanctions resources regularly. For legal advice, please consult a qualified professional.
