Belgium: using SignSpelling rules

[Valerie Sutton]

SignWriting List
October 19, 2005

The sign for FAIRY looks fine...the right wrist moves forward...so  
the arrow is placed correctly!

The sign for LOTS OF FAIRIES looks good too...Those Finger Movements  
are called Hinge Movements, like a door hinge that opens and  
closes...so your sign for LOTS OF is like a double-handed GOODBYE..  
the movement is equal - Down-Up-Down...

And the last one is, I assume, not what you want. Those double  
arrows, (one stacked right on top of the other), that symbol is  
called a Single Trill. A Trill means that each finger closes one at a  
time, one right after the other, finishing in a fist or some other  
closed position...

You are doing fine!  Val ;-)
