Here is another example of a sentence from Little Red Riding Hood in
Spanish Sign Language, with and without brackets.
Although the sentence with brackets is wider, it probably gives more

expressions are still there, simply placed on existing face circles.
It is assumed that the facial expression continues, until a change is
written. Notice that I lined up the facial circles so they are at the
same level, giving a feeling of a real person whose head remains
