Hello to my fellow SignWriting Lists!! :) I try to be have a joyous greetings when writing this letter to all. I know this is does not have anything to do with signwriting when I tell you this why I try to greet in a 'joyous' way, I just got the news from my girlfriend who I had been dating for quite a while to announce that we are expecting a stork of our own soon. (I admit I was really shocked for quite a while when I got the 'news'....... but now the 'shock' feeling died down and starting to feel a bit excitement). Okay, anyway the next that I am gonna be talking DOES have alot to do with the sign writing. Thanks for putting up with me as I get the 'joyous' feeling out of the way for now. ha ha! Forgive me, Valerie and other SW fellowers, I have several questions on about the signwritten fonts or how you call it. I am learning about this, so please bear with me which I would appreciate!! :))) And again, forgive me if you did mention all that......... you might want to bawl me out on not paying attention in some areas, eh? Those fonts the way its typed out....... are they 'printed' (or composed as I should say) out in any way? I noticed the samples that you sent me few months ago, that looks like its signwritten as a right handed. As I have mentioned that I am a left-handed and I was practicing composing/printing out a signwritten by hand.....it looks like its signwritten as a left-handed when looking at it. A friend of mine was here for a visit and she had asked me about that where if it is built into the computer, if there was some way where, we the signwriter, switch the "mode" to right-handed or left-handed. I know it dont make any differences, it was just a curiosity that been on my mind and didnt know if this was talked about in previous newsletters. As I have mentioned before, please forgive me if it was already talked about! :) (a weak smile) Did you mention something while back about Jewish/Hebrew? If so, would this subject already be posted in the archives on the website? I can look that up so you dont have to re-tell me all this. And lastly (I hope for now), how many foreign languages are there that you have put together? I know there are more that are coming along such as the Brazillian and the Maltese language. You know it will someday eventually record ALL the langauages around the country! That would be something to see it happen! Keep up the good work! And to end this "letter", thank you for being your patience as you read this long drag on (I am sure I must have bored some of you back to bed by now :)....) but I really do appreciate it and I will try my best to get better at it next time and it might not be so lengthy and I might be understable then! Thank you again! Francis Bezellain Bertram, IA 'laughter is the best medicine and it has small side effects to it' | ||||||||||||
