?What are the different handshapes used for signing numbers in ASL

In ASL, numbers are signed using a combination of handshapes specific to each digit. Common handshapes include the extended index finger for numbers 1-5, the "V" handshape for numbers 6-9, and the open hand for zero.

?How are larger numbers expressed in ASL

Larger numbers in ASL are typically expressed through a combination of handshapes and movements to represent the digits sequentially. For instance, the number 23 would be signed by sequentially indicating "2" and then "3" with appropriate handshapes. Alternatively, more complex numerical concepts may be fingerspelled.
