Thank you Adam - for the ASL corrections.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I really learned something and I appreciate it… Adam taught me that the detailed facial expression, which I wrote with air coming out of the mouth and moving lips, that was a VERB, because it shows “how” the motorcycle action takes place, but the simple sign without the facial expression is the basic NOUN. Am I correct to understand this, Adam?</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">So both entries of MOTORCYCLE could be in the dictionary but it needs to be stated that one is a VERB and the other is a NOUN?</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">So Hector, thank you for your great video of the mouth movements and I guess your sign was a verb, taking action of really driving the motorcycle, not just the simple machine sitting in our neighbor’s garage, which is a noun…smile…and there really is a neighbor like this - their garage is filled with motorcycles!</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Here is my new sentence with a Topic Marker (eyebrows up) on both MY and NEIGHBOR - makes sense too -</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">So how does this look?</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="828B5EB9-F598-4D9E-BD41-AC1F4D079D25" width="221" height="448" src="cid:97FFE088-951E-4517-A47B-E22DAA61AEA9" class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">-------</div><div class=""><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class="">On Oct 22, 2022, at 7:32 PM, Adam Frost <<a href="mailto:icemandeaf@GMAIL.COM" class="">icemandeaf@GMAIL.COM</a>>wrote:<br class=""><br class="">The facial expressions on MOTORCYCLE shouldn’t be there unless you are using it as a verb, which isn’t the case with this sentence.<br class=""><br class="">The facial expression with MY seems to be off too.
