Start by holding your non-dominant hand in front of you, palm facing up and slightly cupped like a small bowl or a 'C' shape. With your dominant hand, start with your fingers spread apart above the non-dominant hand. Move your dominant hand down into the cupped hand while bringing your fingers and thumb together into a flattened 'O' shape, as if you are gathering something and placing it inside.
Sign 'price', then 'include', and finally 'tax'. Remember to raise your eyebrows at the end of the sentence to indicate that you are asking a yes/no question.
Sign 'please', point to yourself to indicate 'me', sign 'include', and then sign 'game'. You can slightly pull the 'include' sign towards your body to emphasize that you are the one being included.
Sign 'recipe', then 'include', followed by the number 'three' and the sign for 'apple'. The sign 'include' acts as the bridge showing what goes into the recipe.

Yes! The sign for 'include' is also commonly used to mean 'involve' or 'inclusive'. The context of your sentence will help the person you are signing with understand which specific English concept you are expressing.
Yes, you should always use your non-dominant hand as the stationary 'cup' or base. Your dominant hand should be the one doing the active moving and gathering motion. This follows the standard ASL rule for two-handed signs where only one hand moves.
Absolutely! ASL is a spatial language. You can adjust the starting position of your dominant hand to 'gather' from the direction of a specific person or object you want to include, bringing that hand into your base hand.
