Here is my SW- spelling - ha - I will ask Irina tomorrow - she put her hand at the back of her head whe we were looking for a name sign for Ilker . But who knows perhaps the hand should be placed today at the right (!!!! definitely temple ??) One aspect of this may be that he (Ilker) himself never has studied or understood his own written name sign with that much attention we do ;-) Irina referred to his CI, when she invented his name sign.... SignWriting List April 8, 2001 Hello Stefan and Everyone! Thank you for your excellent photos, Stefan - they really help to clarify exactly what was on my mind. As you can see by my attached diagram, the three ways to write that sign are quite different....all three show different positions... When we read and write from the Expressive Viewpoint, we are seeing signs as if we were standing behind the signer and looking through the signer's body...so the photo of Ilker's back of his head is perfect to show how I would write that sign...I would choose number 3, since it matches the photo. The reader sees the back of the hand in that position, since the reader is the audience, so the Angle Handshape is dark... | |||||
