February 13, 2000 Please see the attached sign in ASL for INVOLVE or INCLUDE. Number 1 is Stuart's - you wrote it correctly! Numbers 2 and 3 show other versions of signing it and writing it. Number 2 shows a wrist circle, and Number 3 shows an arm circle instead. These are dialectical or style differences in signing the same sign...all three are correct depending on how you sign it and where you come from.... Number 3 is interesting. It eliminates writing the flat hand with spread fingers, that starts the sign, assuming that it can be read anyway, since how else could you reach the second position without having some kind of an open hand to begin with? In SignWriting, you can choose to write both the beginning and ending positions of signs, or you can eliminate one position if you feel it can be read that way. In Number 3, writing the second position only....the sign in that case starts with movement symbols when one looks up in dictionaries under the SignSymbolSequence. Lots of interesting issues with all these spellings! ;-)) | ||||||||
