There are signers from Brazil here on the List. I hope you can discuss your choices for symbols in LIBRAS with them. Meanwhile, from a general SignWriting perspective, all of the handshapes you show in the attached photos can be written in SignWriting and it is just a matter of choice - It is hard to get a consensus to write exactly the same in such a large country like Brazil - especially when writing LIBRAS is such a new experience for many people in Brazil, but it is good that you all discuss it - </div><div><br></div><div>I hope you will start using SignPuddle Online, Madson, for some of your documents and dictionary entries, since your writing style can be read by others that way and that can help to show your suggestions to people:</div><div><br></div><div>SignPuddle for Brazil</div><div><a href="http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle/index3.html#sgn-BR">http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle/index3.html#sgn-BR</a></div><div><br></div><div>It is a pleasure to discuss writing LIBRAS!</div><div><br></div><div>Val ;-)</div><div><br></div><div>---------</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On Nov 24, 2011, at 2:26 PM, Madson Barreto wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div><div style="color:#000; background-color:#fff; font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:10pt"><div><span style="line-height: 20px;"><div class="MsoNormal"><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:150%;

[I] and 01-10-004 [A]. The handshape "5" is very alike to the
01-06-021 [Y]. Here in Brazil usually use it but it is very Seems with
01-06-021 [Y].<o:p></o:p></span></div>

01-10-004 [A] and 01-09-019 is [G]. The handshape 01-06-021 is a different
picture of "5".<o:p></o:p></span></div>

mso-ansi-language:EN-US">Initially had said here on this forum that my proposal
was that here in Brazil were used only handshapes 01-09-019 and 01-10-004 and
that they were no longer used the handshape 01-09-018 and 01-10-003 because
They cause confusion in the writing of handshape "5".<o:p></o:p></span></div>
