To sign the word “Richard,” first make a closed fist with your dominant hand. Then, extend your index finger and tap it twice on your forehead, near your hairline. This represents the letter “R” in American Sign Language. Next, using the same hand shape, tap your chin twice to represent the letter “I.” Finally, place your open hand, palm facing upwards, in front of your chest and move it in small circles to represent the letter “D.”
