Note: All glosses in this document are of ASL signs.

How about all of them-there signs that deal with royalty, pageantry, and those
notions as ported into religions (particularly Christianity). KING, LORD,
etc...? Possible others:

* certain variations of NEVER which end in a diagonal movement
* Um... simple deixis IX:"over there up and to the left"?
* Signs which arc in their unmarked forms, but are signed with straight
movement in
  their emphatic forms (e.g. TRUE, DIRECT/STRAIGHT)?

Cheers,

Dan.
