Here's how you can sign "salmon" in ASL:

1. Sign "fish": The sign for "fish" involves making a "fish" shape with your dominant hand, then moving it back and forth as if swimming.

2. Add the sign for "salmon": To specify "salmon," you can either:

* Use the sign for "red": This sign involves bringing your index finger and thumb together to make a "pinch" motion, then moving it up and down in front of your chest.

* Sign "salmon" using fingerspelling: This involves spelling out "S-A-L-M-O-N" using your fingers.

Therefore, you can sign "salmon" by either:

* Signing "fish" and then adding the sign for "red."
