I have my first question. It is attached in a diagram…</div><div><br></div><div>I think the new terminology of a "Tuple" is very interesting... In the long run, terminology doesn't matter very much, just as long as the SignWriting Script can be written visually, and accurately and hopefully with ease.</div><div><br></div><div>I personally do not think in any spoken language, when writing movement.</div><div><br></div><div>Adam explained to me that the letter "n" probably stands for "north", and the letter "s" must mean "south"…I would never have thought of that…but I am glad to understand it.</div><div><br></div><div>So the way I think is different. When I look at the attached sign, I see four SignWriting symbols.</div><div><br></div><div>Can you provide
me, or us, with a way to actually start writing with your model? Without a way to start writing with it, I will never know if it works for me…I need "hands on" to know if it works…can you program a test program for us and let me try to write a document or a few signs?</div><div><br></div><div>See attached for my first question…</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><img height="802" width="906" id="yiv907908456b127957c-2053-499e-9b2a-ba98fe53d5df" src="cid:1.1642674887@web163406.mail.gq1.yahoo.com"></div></div></div><br><br> </div> </div> </div></body></html>
