My answer is below so scroll down...</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">INTRODUCTION for our list members:</div><div class="">There are two ways to write SignWriting...</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">1. "SignWriting Printing" for printing books in written sign language, and writing Wikipedia articles and other formal publications.</div><div class="">2. "SignWriting Handwriting" for quick writing for note taking and personal use</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">In my work, I am focusing on Printing sign language literature.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">For example right now I am working on the layout and publishing of the entire New Testament in written ASL, that was translated from the English Bible into ASL and written in SignWriting by Nancy Romero. It took Nancy over a decade to write all 27 books of the New Testament in ASL, and now we are printing all of the 27 NT books in 8 ASL volumes. I am completing volume 6 right now, and within a few months we will have all 8 volumes ready to distribute to the public. I will announce it of course ;-)</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The publishing of sign language literature has helped me focus on one issue: is the way we are publishing "easy-to-read-at-a-glance"? Can the reader understand the sentences quickly and visually, without having to "guess" what the writer means? And have we captured the true "visual" nature of sign languages while we are also writing grammar, structure and so many necessary details required of all written literature?</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">So writing literature is different than writing handwriting by hand.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Meanwhile - Adam uses SignWriting Handwriting everyday I believe and teaches using it to his ASL classrooms - Handwriting has another focus - it is to aid the writer to write quickly for note taking etc... and it is not as standardized... more individualized...</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Adam presented a paper on SW Handwriting at our SignWriting Symposium 2014:</div><div class=""><strong style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class=""><a href="http://www.signwriting.org/symposium/presentation0003.html#abstract" title="Abstract" target="_self" class="">“Ways to Write Sign Languages by Hand with SignWriting”</a></strong></div><div class=""><a href="http://www.signwriting.org/symposium/presentation0003.html" class="">http://www.signwriting.org/symposium/presentation0003.html</a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">ANSWERING Adam's question:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Here is my question to you Adam - in your examples that you show us below, all of the examples look like the formal writing - they look like Printing -</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">But I am assuming that you took away one hand and you are writing one-handed signing as a handwriting method for speed, and what has happened is that there are times when you actually need both hands - right?</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">But there is a solution both for the Printing and Handwriting - There is a misunderstanding about the Alternating Symbol. Technically the Alternating Symbol isn't even needed if you write the sign using alternating arrows. The Movement Cluster of "alternating arrows" existed long before we ever had the Alternating symbol, and we were able to write anything clearly without the abstract symbol called Alternating.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The key is how one "reads" the Movement Cluster. You always read the cluster from the inside-out. So in the example I have attached, the left hand is moving forward while the right hand is moving back at the same time. And then the directions reverse. All this is happening simultaneously. So no Alternating Symbol is even needed if you know how to read the Movement Cluster. If in your Handwriting you can write it that way, it should help ;-)</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span id="cid:AB562B89-F2AA-45A7-85B7-D3518D528C6A@san.rr.com" class=""><Screen Shot 2019-08-14 at 10.51.36 AM.png></span></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span id="cid:FBDB1BF0-B3E4-4D0C-9E70-791DF5BEE083@san.rr.com" class=""><Screen Shot 2019-08-14 at 10.47.34 AM.png></span></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">-------</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><div class=""><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Aug 14, 2019, at 9:47 AM, Adam Frost <<a href="mailto:icemandeaf@GMAIL.COM" class="">icemandeaf@GMAIL.COM</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class="">Ok.
