There is no such thing as a universal gesture that has the same meaning in all cultures and contexts. Different gestures can have different meanings depending on the cultural context in which they are used. For example, although the "thumbs up" gesture is commonly used in Western countries to convey a positive message, in some parts of the Middle East and South America it can be seen as an offensive gesture. Similarly, "high five" and "o.k." gestures are also culturally specific and may not be universally understood.
