When the names of months appear as numbers in calendar dates, they should be signed using the 2-digit rule. Here's a breakdown of what this means:
1. 2-digit rule: When signing calendar dates with the month represented as a number, each digit of the month is signed separately. For example, if the date is "February 14th," you would sign "2" for February using the 2-digit rule. This rule ensures clarity and precision in conveying the specific month being referred to.
2. Example: If you are signing the date "March 3rd," you would sign "3" for March using the 2-digit rule. Each digit is signed individually to accurately represent the month being referenced in the calendar date.
By following the 2-digit rule when signing calendar dates with months represented as numbers, individuals can effectively communicate the specific month being discussed in sign language with clarity and accuracy.
