How do you sign “Help” in ASL?
HELP: HELP in American Sign Language (ASL) means to assist, or to ask for assistance. Watch the video and animation below to see it signed.
When do you use the sign HELP?
HELP is high-stakes vocabulary: it requests aid, offers it, and appears in emergencies. ASL lets you aim the meaning at yourself or the other person, so HELP-ME and HELP-YOU are natural early phrases, and both have their own entries here.
Lesson 44 of the challenge covers it, in Book 2’s everyday requests.
