This handshape is used in signs 'Bolivia', 'Lhama', etc... Thank you ! SignNet-MCT-PUCRS _______________________________ SignWriting List November 28, 2000 Hello Everyone, and SignNet! Thank you for your question.... Cute handshape...it looks a little like a lhama, which I guess lives in Bolivia! ;-) This handshape is used when writing Japanese fingerspelling, and there is a slight difference in the way we write it. Let me take a look at the Japanese fingerspelling chart, which I have on the web, and I will then post my complete response to the List soon... Once you learn the theories behind writing different fingers, you should be able to construct new handshapes in the future without doubts ;-) You seem to be very busy in Porto Alegre! I think that is great ;-) Please send my best wishes to everyone - |
