== == The word 'for' has a couple of definitions in the English language. The sign for 'for' when it is used like in the following sentence: 'This gift is 'for' you.'; is signed by using the dominate hand's index finger extended with the tip of that finger touching the forhead and sweeping away such that the index finger at the end of the movement points to the person that the gift is 'for' if they are in the area. If the definition of 'for' means a reason why as in the sentence: 'I did this 'for' love.'; then the index finger on the dominant sign hand begins with the tip touching the forehead and sweeps into a modified A hand at the side of the head. This gesture is also used for the words 'because' and 'since' when the definition means a reason why.
