I have seen a lot of sign variations partly because that is my field of study as well as it being my native language that I live, breath, read, write, sign, analyze, and teach everyday. I will be the first to admit, however, that even I haven't seen every variation out there because new ones pop up all the time. Having said that, let's have a continuation of discussing. :-)<br><div><br></div><div>Kelly Jo, I personally don't see anything with the arrows in the writing that Charles chose, which was written by Natasha. I am not sure if I understand what you are trying to say, though. You say that the arrows should be going to the left rather than the right? Would this writing be what you suggest?</div><div><br></div><div><img class="decoded" alt="http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle2.0/glyphogram.php?size=1&ksw=M23x36S15711n6xn36S18508n23xn23S21300n7xn11S26a02n4x9" src="http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle2.0/glyphogram.php?size=1&ksw=M23x36S15711n6xn36S18508n23xn23S21300n7xn11S26a02n4x9"></div><div><br></div><div>Or are you meaning this writing?</div><div><br></div><div><img class="decoded" alt="http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle2.0/glyphogram.php?size=1&ksw=M23x43S15711n6xn42S18508n23xn29S21300n7xn17S27106n4x3" src="http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle2.0/glyphogram.php?size=1&ksw=M23x43S15711n6xn42S18508n23xn29S21300n7xn17S27106n4x3"></div><div><br></div><div>And, Cherie, you mentioned another way of signing it. Is this close to what you meant?</div></div><div><br></div><div><img class="decoded" alt="http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle2.0/glyphogram.php?size=1&ksw=M17x40S15712n15x0S18536n17x15S21300n7xn21S26a00n10xn39" src="http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle2.0/glyphogram.php?size=1&ksw=M17x40S15712n15x0S18536n17x15S21300n7xn21S26a00n10xn39"></div><div><br></div><div>Now, if I were writing this sign myself, I would have chosen a different palm orientation for the non-dominate hand. In fact, that is the only difference that I would personally make to Natasha's writing in SignPuddle. (Ok, maybe I would change the placing of some of the symbols, but it is basically the same.
