Many signs here are compared or contrasted with other ASL SIGNS that look similar.
Sometimes the additional signs are a "compared or contrasted" with similar ENGLISH WORDS.
All signs are now Target Vocabulary, even if they are not from "A Quiet Place."
CONTINUE = continue, go on, keep on, go on, to last
FINAL = final, last, finally
SAFETY = safety, safe, salvation, rescue, free(dom), independent, liberty...
SAVE = save (v.), keep, preserve, reserve, hold
SUPERVISE = take care of, but CAREFUL = take care, caution/cautious, wary
So, sign the concept, not the word. "Last" could be FINAL or CONTINUE. "Keep" could be SAVE=RESERVE or CONTINUE or KEEP, "Save (v.)" could be SAFETY or SAVE/RESERVE. "Last" could be FINAL, but "at last" is FINALLY. "Take care" means "be careful" = CAREFUL, but "take care of" means "to oversee" = SUPERVISE. It's the concept, not the words. If you are confused, blame English and words. The signs are consistently clear.
