The sign language that Ares (Ruby Rose) uses when conversing with John Wick (Keanu Reeves) appears to be based on American Sign Language although the character uses English syntax rather than ASL syntax.
It isn't said for certain. But likely a few weeks, as John is healed from his injuries sustained in the first film.
Because, despite his attempts to leave the assassin world behind, he was essentially forced to come back and kill a friend no less. His scream was that of anger and frustration.
John is immensely respected and feared in the organisation. He has reached living legend status. John also shows great honor to those who deserve it. Thus, over his decades within the organisation, every assassin or those associated know his name and know he is to be shown respect and he will return it in kind.

The gold coins are currency among the Assassins. It's not made clear how exactly one earns them or why they don't just use real money. But it can be speculated that you earn a certain amount of coins for certain missions. These coins can be exchanged for services within the assassin industry, such as removing bodies and cleaning up any forensic evidence, purchasing weapons and armor, information, and so on. It can also be assumed they use this form of "in-house" currency to avoid any real money being marked or traced to anyone in the organization. Having a private form of currency also makes it more secure against forgery or anyone outside the organization using it themselves.

A marker is a blood oath sworn by two members of the organization. Essentially it is a favour that one cannot refuse when called upon to fulfill it. In this case, John Wick gave a marker to Santino. In exchange, Santino helped John Wick with his "impossible task" that allowed John to leave the Assassin world to live a normal life. Had John stayed in that life and not gotten back into the world of assassins, Santino claims he would have respected it and left the marker unused.
