Word List Author Note: Two variations of the sign WHY are shown. For both, the signer's eyebrows are up. This means that "WHY?" is a rhetorical question, so this sign functions as "because." If the eyebrows were down, it would be an actual (Wh-q)WHY? question, asking why. In the rhetorical question, the signer says (gives the reason) why, therefore, it functions as "because."
