YoGoTe information English

The basic idea of this project is to encourage the use of international gestures as an additional channel of communication and expression.

We can use our hands to make international gestures while speaking in any language.


The name YoGoTe is made by three syllables that have the following meaning in Japanese:

Yo (world), Go (language), Te (hands)

世 语 手

These syllables can be written in characters that are common to Japanese and Chinese, which reinforces the international essence of the project.

The result is a word with a triple meaning, which in turn is the name of a collection of signs that allows everyone to make international gestures and use them in international communication contexts, mainly at the educational level.
