<DIV><FONT face=Arial><SMALL>Dear colleagues, </DIV>
<DIV></SMALL></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><SMALL>Yesterday the first Flemish Sign Language -
Dutch / Dutch - Flemish Sign Language dictionary was launched. It is an
on-line basic dictionary which contains over 2000 Dutch entries and over
6000 signs from Flemish Sign Language (VGT) (including regional
variants). The signs can be read through SignWriting and can be seen as moving
pictures (although not all of the films are ready yet; they are being added on
a daily basis). You can search the dictionary in two directions: from the
Dutch written word or from the Flemish Sign Language sign (with a search
platform based on SignWriting). </DIV>
<DIV></SMALL></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><SMALL>At the moment everything is still in
Dutch and/or VGT, but information in English will be added shortly.
</DIV>
<DIV></SMALL></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><SMALL>The website can be found at: <FONT
color=#0000ee>http://gebaren.ugent.be</FONT> and can be accessed freely.
