When do you use THIRSTY in ASL?
THIRSTY belongs to the same practical family as HUNGRY, the pair that gets requests moving. It shows up at restaurants, gyms, and hot afternoons. Simple need-words like this one give beginners their first real conversations. Restaurant role-plays in class lean on it, which is where many students first use it unprompted.
