Gesticulation 

To make gestures: To move the arms or hands when speaking, or to express something with movements of the arms or hands.

Premature Gesticulation 

Waving your hands about before it's absolutely necessary.
As I backed my truck toward her car she began waving her hands about frantically. I said "Hey lady, I can see your car, don't get all premature gesticulation on me!"

amicable gesticulation 

a wordy way of saying 'friendly gesture'
I didn't give you the finger. From far away it might have seemed that way, but it was an amicable gesticulation.

gesticulation 

To thrust air in excitement. A vigourous movement of the hips. Not a subtle action.

Gary Neville's favourite celebration.
'Im gesticulating in the direction of the problem'
'Dont gesticulate here, you'll get us thrown out'
'YEAH!!! GET IT!! (said with gesticulation)'

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
