To post in the list
Hello everyone!
I would like to say thank you to each one that report my e-mail
related with the experience in Brazil. I think that is interesting
to talk a little more about our work with SignWriting in Brazil.
Valerie Sutton and I are working with the production of additional
material in Brazilian Sign Language and Marianne is working since
last two years to learn SignWriting and writing some books. This
work began with Professor Antonio Rocha who has given us support
to learn SignWriting. We have a group that believe in SignWriting
as a writing system to sign language. As I had mentioned before,
to write the language in a system that is related with it is
much better than to write another system that cannot express
your language. Because of this, we are beginning this work in
Brazil. The Deaf Community began to be interested in SignWriting:
one step more toward the development of SignWriting.
Together with your feedback, we are given more steps in this
path. Then, thank you very much Valerie, Cindy, Ruth and Norine
for your feedback.
