Directional (Inflecting) Verbs What this means is that when you sign a sentence using a DIRECTIONAL VERB, you do NOT need to add the pronouns at all! So the sentence below is signed as ONE SIGN. You sign the directional verb that moves to indicate subject and object in the sentence. YOU- MEET ASK -ME

Directional (Inflecting) Verbs Some verbs must be accompanied by the subject and object pronouns. REMEMBER HAVE WANT YOU KNOW ME NEED These verbs cannot stand alone.
