how to sign the word acanthion

To sign “acanthion,” use both hands to form the letter “A” by placing the thumb of one hand on the middle knuckle of the index finger of the other hand. Then, bring both hands up to the chin, with the “A” hand touching the chin and the other hand pointing upward. Finally, twist the “A” hand slightly, as if screwing in a light bulb. This motion represents the Greek letter “alpha,” which is the first letter of “acanthion.”
