intelligent

SHARP, BRIGHT, INTELLECTUALLY BRILLIANT: With the middle finger of the right “5” hand bent in, place the end against the center of the forehead, then throw it off with a twist, so that when the hand comes to rest the fingers point outward. The motion is similar to that in first sign for “sharp edge,” but the sign is made from the forehead instead of the edge of the hand.

peaceful

PEACE: Clasp hands (shake hands with yourself), then turn them over and repeat in opposite direction; then bring hands away from each other, palms down, as if stroking something on either side in opposite directions.

brave

BRAVE, COURAGEOUS: Place the “A” hands on either side of the breast so that they are just below the shoulder; in placing them there first leave the hand somewhat open and as you reach up make a grasping motion against the body; move the hands straight out from the shoulder nearly the length of the arms; move the upper part of the body forward the least bit.

crazy

 
CRAZY: Place the forefinger of one hand on the forehead as in “think,” then bring it away, at the same time bringing the other forefinger up so the two will point toward each other, up and down, and whirl them in opposite directions indicating the “wheels in the head.”
