<div dir="ltr">Hello Valerie,<div><br></div><div>recently I researched history if writing sign languages and I realized that the very first writing system developed by Roch-Ambroise Auguste Bébian (French) is in some way similar to SignWriting.<br>
</div><div>Did you know about Bebian's writing system by the time you developed SignWriting on the basis of DanceWriting and were you inspired by his system or not?<br>It is known that Stokoe created his notation system on the basis of Bebian's.. </div>
<div>It is very interesting fact.</div><div><br></div><div>It interests me because I teach about writing sign languages at University, but I haven't found enought detail about this.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you.</div>
<div>Honza</div></div>
