Which sign begins with the sign for 'Work' and refers to a job?

• A. Employee/Worker
• B. Doctor
• C. Teacher
• D. Manager

Answer: (A)

In ASL, many signs for jobs are built by starting with the action “work” and then adding a marker that shows a person in that role. The sign for employee/worker uses that pattern, so it begins with the sign for “work” and then indicates a job. The other options have signs rooted in their own fields (doctor relates to health/medicine, teacher to teaching, manager to managing) and don’t start from the “work” root. That’s why employee/worker is the best match.
