1. Tolerance

The relatively new ‘Tolerance Sign’ was announced at an event that saw four doves being released into the sky at the base of the Burj Khalifa (hence why the sign resembles a bird).

It’s a symbol of acceptance and hope (and yes, it does resemble the WuTang sign).#2. Wait, slow down or ‘listen to me’

handtouch

A sign that gets used in the UAE on a daily basis and basically means shway shway (aka ‘wait’ or ‘slowly’). It can be accompanied by a tut and a frown (meaning ‘wait habibi’), used during driving (‘please let me out’) or can be used while talking to command attention.

3. I don’t know

The ‘I don’t know’ hand sign consists of a cupped hand being flapped 180. A staple in conversations burdened with a language barrier. Can also be used in a ‘come on, man’ scenario, or when asking the price of something.

4. Come here

hand gestures dubai

This one is similar to the cupped hand, waving fingers used in the western world, all you’ve got to do is flip your hand over, and make the same ‘come hither’ motion with all your fingers. This signal is often used from a car to command the attention of the karak man.

#5. Win, Victory, Love

This is our favourite: this hand sign was coined as a logo for the UAE by Sheikh Mohammed back in 2013.

The sign was introduced weeks after H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, ruler of Dubai, announced his initiative for tolerance in an effort to make the UAE one of the most open and tolerant countries in the region
