I searched for the handshape in the middle, the second sign with a fist. It was found …It was the German word for “win”… So then I realized that Stefan was translating the phrase “Generosity always wins” in German signs…To be sure of this, I opened Google Translate, and typed the phrase in English, and found the phrase in German: "<span>Großzügigkeit</span> <span>gewinnt</span> <span>immer</span><span>.” Then I went back to SignPuddle Online and looked up the signs for “</span><span>Großzügigkeit"</span> <span>and</span> “<span>immer”</span><span>.
