To sign 'pour', start by holding your non-dominant hand flat in front of you with the palm facing up. Form a 'Y' handshape with your dominant hand, extending your thumb and pinky while curling the other fingers. Hold your dominant hand above your non-dominant hand, then tilt your dominant wrist forward and downward, mimicking the action of pouring liquid from a pitcher.
Sign 'water', then use the 'pour' sign, tilting your dominant hand slightly toward yourself to indicate that the water is being poured for you.
First, sign 'milk', and then perform the 'pour' sign to clearly show the action you are about to take.
Sign 'coffee', then use the 'pour' sign over your flat non-dominant hand, which represents the mug receiving the liquid.

No, this specific sign is used for pouring liquid from a container. To describe heavy rain, you would use the sign for 'rain' but perform it with a stronger, faster downward motion to show intensity.
Your non-dominant hand acts as a reference point. It represents the surface, table, or the receiving container (like a cup or bowl) that you are pouring the liquid onto or into.
Yes! This is a directional sign. You can adjust where you tilt your hand to show who is receiving the drink. Tilt it toward yourself for 'pour me a drink' or toward someone else for 'pour them a drink'.
