NIGHT: Left horizontal prone forearm pointing out to the right, right vertical forearm lowered over the left. (If lowered to horizontal it would signify “Evening” if not so low, it would indicate “Afternoon” if lowered below horizontal, it would denote “Night”).

NO: Right index and middle of vertical hand resting on tip of thumb, palm outward, index and middle moved upward and then down on thumb tip. (Negation).

NEAR: Hold the left bent hand, palm toward self, slightly toward either side, toward the right side and draw the right open hand toward it so its palm approaches the back of the left hand.

NEVER: Hold out the right “B” hand to the front straight from the side, and with the hand describe a complete circle from left to right, not moving the elbow out of its position; when the hand returns to its starting point draw it slightly to the right; then throw it out at the right side. Some use the “G” instead of the “B” hand.

NOON: Right perpendicular forearm pointing to the zenith, palm leftward. (Mid-day).

NAME: Right index and middle resting on, left index and middle, crosswise, right palm leftward and left palm rightward. (Call).

NEW: Left palm inward, fingers pointing rightward, and right palm inward, pointing leftward, slid leftward along back of left hand. (News).

NARROW: Both hands edgewise, palm towards palm, brought near each other from the sides. (Wide: Same as “Narrow” but hands moved apart.)

NUN: With open hands trace a veil from head to shoulder.
