I won't put it on the refrigerator I'll just sort of gesture at something with my fingers in those positions. Sort of like when your old high school history teacher pointed at something on a map with "that" finger....

To check, you could ask her if she knows what a "Brunswick" is. (you can use Nord's link to look it up). It was an 18 year old girl who taught me that many, many years ago.
