<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Val,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My pleasure - it's an interesting question!
I'm sitting here trying out different ways to sign 3-digit numbers, trying to
feel which one is most natural. For the 101, I would use the spelling with
the C in the middle, definitely.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What I find really interesting, as I look at
that spelling of 135, is that it feels like it should be a four-digit
number because there are four handshapes!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The "hundred" - whether it's signed with the full C
or just the crooked fingers - is always pulled back toward the body a little,
which is why I included the movement arrow in my writing. It also makes
the two handshapes look like one unit, which is how it feels when I sign it
- 1-C is one word, and the last two numbers are separate
words. Just my opinion . . . but I knew a Deaf child who actually
signed 1-C-0-1 for 101! It's like the C is a suffix on the hundreds
digit.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I could write some other numbers the way I
feel I'd sign them and save them into SignPuddle online, if you'd like.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anyone else on the list have an opinion about
this?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Hi Kelly Jo -<BR>Thanks for your feedback - I need feedback
-<BR><BR>So how would you write the page number for page 101? The first one
with the C in the middle I assume? and take a look at page 135 with the C
below....does that look ok?<BR><BR>

signing in ordinary conversation, I'll usually pull my hand back and hook
whichever fingers are extended (see attached my spelling of "135"), but that
might be more informal signing. The formal way would be to use the C in
all situations, and that's probably best for page numbers.<BR>>
