To sign 'Loke', you will fingerspell the word letter by letter using your dominant hand. Start by forming an 'L' handshape, then smoothly transition into an 'O'. Next, form a 'K' by extending your index and middle fingers with your thumb resting on the middle finger, and finish by pulling your fingers in to form an 'E'. Keep your hand steady in front of your shoulder with your palm facing outward.
