May 16, 1999 I am happy to announce that I have just posted a listing of Facial Expressions on our web site: Forehead, Eyebrows, Eyes https://www.SignWriting.org/face000.html Eyegaze https://www.SignWriting.org/face001.html Nose, Cheeks, Mouth, Teeth https://www.SignWriting.org/face002.html Tongue https://www.SignWriting.org/face003.html Chin, Ears & Other Miscellaneous Faces https://www.SignWriting.org/face004.html These are approximately 90% of the symbols used to write facial expressions in SignWriting. Of course, applying these facial expressions, when writing grammar, is a skill in its own right. The symbols are combined in different ways to create the units needed to record grammar. The purpose of this posting is to give a reference listing of the symbols themselves. The other 10% will be added later. They include detailed mouth and tongue movements used to record the movements of speech (like the sound "pah" that occurs in ASL), and detailed eyegaze, such as making circles with the eyes. Hope this reference list is useful!!
