  Very common question. ;-) If you follow the current writing rules, it is not correct to write (B) because the two arrows in (A) don't overlap which is what that arrow means. The best way to think about the overlapping arrow is imagining your right hand dipped in black paint and left in white. When the black and white mark the same place, it would turn to a gray paint. So that gray paint would be the overlapping arrow. With the sign for PERSON, the black and white don't touch the same place.

    Hi Adam, Val, Stefan and everyone,

        See the attached diagram.  (A) PERSON in ASL is standard.  But, a Deaf student asked a Deaf teacher if she can use (B) PERSON in ASL.  She liked it more than (A).  I don't know that I cannot answer this question.  What do you think?


        Regards,
