If I were to read it without knowing what you are intending, I would see the base handshape is like an “O” with 2 fingers extended upward and spread. Because of the location of the two fingers, I would assume they were the two in the middle of the hand — not including the index finger. To be honest, I can’t really make my hand form into that shape. ;-)</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">If I were to construct the “2” to show the spread fingers as you are trying, I would make it like this: <img apple-inline="yes" id="1F0C3B31-7F65-4934-AD01-0A0E838D23D2" width="30" height="38" src="cid:CBF6F3CE-F9F6-476B-8A43-221928732C43" class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">However, the closest handshape that we have (and with good reason) is this one: <img apple-inline="yes" id="3C533FF9-3293-4013-AF72-64649B8EAADD" width="22" height="38" src="cid:F07A405A-FF5B-4BF4-B5A2-78841C958D30" class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I know people new to SignWriting often assume that this is a “K”, but it is obviously different when you see that this is a “K”: <img apple-inline="yes" id="149047CD-DE5D-45DE-A16A-9418B27ADA90" width="37" height="40" src="cid:9759DDBA-45E3-4A0F-B776-F504611E1FE5" class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><div class="">
