I want to learn sign language.

Yeah, that's right. Auslan, specifically. The alphabet is surprisingly intuitive for one to learn. From what I see, there are a few patterns:

  • As I'm right handed, my left hand is mostly stationary, whilst my right hand does the work. Makes sense.
  • The vowels involve pointing at my left fingers with my right hand.
  • l, m, and n all involve fingers on my palm
  • z looks like a chair for some reason
  • f, g and h also don't like look like their letters
All in all, though I'm pretty confident.

Confident enough to do this, in fact.

(Puts hand on chest, does two finger salute, traces j, points to little finger, places finger on palm, points to middle finger, points to ring finger)
