Three simple signs but located to each other so perfectly that you can read tehm like a flashcard ! I really had to smile - a big happy smile - In addition a question from the learner to the Linguist - the eyebrows up in the last sign - "possible" I would think of a question instead of an affirmation Can you explain to me why you picked eyebrows up ? But nevertheless a wonderfull, wondrfull example how simple we can present our experience : Yes, Writing Signlanguage is possible -- sure it is - if you practice every day - ha ;-) Stefan ;-) ----- Original Message ----- From: Angus B.
