Word List Author Note: The difference between these two signs is the movement. SUCCEED has a double movement. FINALLY ("at long last", not meaning the last or final thing) has a single, bigger movement. THE MOUTH MOVEMENT IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE SIGN, as if you're saying, "Pah!" In the movie, the actress signs FINALLY (one movement), rather than SUCCEED when she signed, "It doesn't work. It never works."
