Ordering Signs in Dictionaries

[Ingvild Roald]

I for one woul love to have the Sign Bank back - but I guess it is too much to ask for. The capability to have a dictionary with more than one sin language - and/or more than one spoken language ... But for now, the SignPudle is great. And the two step process for sorting and ordering is really neccessary

Loved the seminar,

Not quite finished viewing it yet though,
