Ross

I believe the answer is:

gesture

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">I believe this is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">shrug</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that shrug is a more specific form of gesture)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">wave</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(waving is a type of gesture)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for gesture that I've seen before include "Hand motion" , "Message through movement" , "Expressive motion" , "A physical motion or signal" , "Significant movement" .)
