Signing: The Agent Marker

07/12/2015

The agent marker is a sign that is used in conjunction with another sign that then turns the first sign into a sign for an occupation or job title. For example, the sign for teacher, is done by signing teach and then adding the agent marker sign.

TEACH + AGENT MARKER = TEACHER

View the video below for several common occupation signs that have the agent sign added to them.
