American Sign Language (ASL) is expressed by movements of the hands and face. It is the primary language of many North Americans who are deaf and hard of hearing, and is used by many hearing people as well.

The sign for 'past' is made by moving your dominant hand over your dominant shoulder. Your palm should face your body. The more emphasis you give the motion and/or the larger movement you use indicates further into the past.
The sign for 'baby' is made by placing both arms together as if holding an infant. Then gently rock your arms back and forth. Tip: think of holding a baby in your arms.
The sign for 'when' is made by holding your left index finger up (if you are right handed). Your palm should face right. Bring the tip of your right index finger near to the tip of your left index finger. Circle the tip of your right index finger in a clockwise motion around your left index finger and end with the tip of the right index finger touching the tip of the left finger. Your arm doesn't move much on this sign. The movement is in the wrist. (If you are left handed just do a mirror image of this sign.)
'single' as in 'I'm not married' is to use a '1' handshape on the sides of the chin.
