Of course now the SignWriting List has seen them too! But it was never my intent to use them in actual sign language documents - That is totally up to the signers who are writing the documents. Everyone has complete freedom do what is correct for their own language :-) Valerie :-) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Valerie Sutton SignWriting Web Site https://www.SignWriting.org Post messages to the SignWriting List SignWriting List Archives https://www.egroups.com/group/sw-l ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The DAC Deaf Action Committee for SignWriting Center For Sutton Movement Writing an educational nonprofit organization PO.
