Attached is a screen capture of that page from the book, plus the sign for FEW in ASL that is an example of the Gradual Movement Symbol, which is like two miniature SLOW and SMOOTH symbols placed between two positions, to mean "gradually moving into the next position". The Gradual symbol is always small between two positions.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="A0FA2CE4-B6FB-4AC9-8429-98FF71941E6A" src="cid:AADF9DCD-DA6C-4CBC-9411-FA5219760850@san.rr.com" class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="931A2DB0-BC36-450E-AAD5-BE2A3FD4D43C" src="cid:1946634E-2C4F-42DF-AC0B-6E91348641FC@san.rr.com" class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Aug 14, 2019, at 8:48 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=""><div class="">I just wanted to confirm the definitions of these four symbols.
