thank you very much for your spelling questions - I sat down and wrote several possibilities and there are definitely more - depends on your focus ;-) We can get a very easy to read sign like the first one - or another one with a lot of more information (starting and ending position -- ... ) I like the spelling with the facial expression - it is enough to read the movement ....;-) (looking back in time --) I am used to transcribe videos - so therefore you would understand that there are several aspects - shoulders, head-movement, mouth-gesture, the movement of the right V-hand - directly backward over your right shoulder - or is there a wrist-flexing, or a curved movement ... So - all in all - the wonderfull thing about SW is that now we have got a basis to discuss several suggestions on a solid visual platform- I am not familiar with ASL - so I just added some intuitiv speculations - ;-) In Your spelling of the second sign - you better write the left hand in a different way - have a look at my gif All the very best Stefan ;-) ----- Original Message ----- From: Stuart Thiessen To: Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2001 8:26 PM Subject: Spelling questions > Hello all!
