<div><br><br><br></div><div>I'm sorry i have no idea what these signs mean, since I don't sign ASL - however from context I kinda assume the first means READ the second something like KNOWN-AS-IN-ENGLISH /QUOTE- however my question doesn't concern their meaning as such. My question is this:<br>
Can these two signs still be read if you change the handshape to thjs handshape instead: <img> (naturally with the rotation needed for the first sign)<br>
