Does anyone else think the sign for p and k look exactly almost the same?

Yes and no. For k your hand is upright with the index finger pointing up. for p your hand is facing forward with the index finger pointing away from you. I hope this helps.

Hi👋👋 I am new here I am hearing but I have been around sign language all my life since I was little. I want to say that ASL is a way that all of God's people to be able to communicate. Hearing or not. I thank God for this app and for the ability to learn Asl.
I am not hearing impaired but am speech impaired. My husband is not speech impaired and is not deaf but is quite hard of hearing. I have unilateral vocal chord paralysis with weak voice and tendency for laryngospasms. We just started learning the alphabet and can only fingerspell slowly. He is not speech impaired. Plan is, he will read my signs and speak for me in public. Am on Section 1, ABC 2. Have learned 19 of 26 letters. Years of learning still ahead but one step at a time.
I'm new in this community and I would love to learn more by practicing. If anyone is willing to be my practice partner and help me, I would be so happy.
What is your favorite sign in ASL? So far, mine is 'weird'!
