owe/bill/debt

At Jakey’s first birthday party, his Nonno noticed he was doing sign-language for “more.”  What a revelation!  Now we had a silent solution to our public dining dilemma.  Sign language is much less disruptive between every bite of sashimi.  Jakey’s sign for more is his right index finger pointed into the palm of his left hand (http://www.signingsavvy.com/sign/OWE).  His teachers at school must have been trying to reduce the lunchtime volume.

Someone recently questioned this sign as the one for “more.”  James went online to look it up.

Jakey’s sign for “more”?  Technically the sign for “owe” as in, “You owe me.”  Why am I not surprised?
