To sign 'Kya', you will fingerspell the letters K, Y, and A. Start by forming the letter 'K' with your dominant hand: hold your index and middle fingers up with your thumb resting on your middle finger, palm facing outward. Next, transition to the letter 'Y' by extending your thumb and pinky finger while curling the others. Finally, form the letter 'A' by making a fist with your thumb resting against the side of your index finger.

No, you should keep your hand steady in one location while fingerspelling. Bouncing your hand with each letter can make it very difficult for the other person to read what you are spelling.
Try to maintain eye contact with the person you are signing with. With practice, you will develop the muscle memory to fingerspell smoothly without needing to watch your own hand.
Always focus on clarity over speed. It is much better to fingerspell slowly and clearly than fast and sloppily. As you get more comfortable with the manual alphabet, your speed will naturally increase.
