My question is do those other movements have a difference in meaning? If not, it just becomes a difference in accent, but people will still understand each other. If there is a difference, then you should write it for the difference in meaning.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">ASL has a sign that is similar to your sign for time, but only the double touch contact symbols would be used because it really doesn’t matter which of the three different movements are done as it doesn’t change the meaning.</div><div class=""><br class=""><div class="">

contact symbols: (touch, grasp, between, strike, brush and rub) are part of the
movement category, which is why in certain cases we can write movement signals
using only the touch contact symbol, without the need to use the arrows.
However, if there is a need to highlight the movement performed by the right or
left hand, it is necessary to write the arrow corresponding to the correct hand.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:21.3pt;margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:107%;font-family:"Bookman Old Style",serif" class="">In
the video that I make available via the link below, I used the example of writing
the “time” sign in LIBRAS (Brazilian Sign Language) which has movement and we
generally write only with the contact symbol touching, without using arrows.
But, when we write this way, how should this writing be read? What is the
direction of movement indicated by the contact symbol touching the writing of
this sign?.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:21.3pt;margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:107%;font-family:"Bookman Old Style",serif" class="">Video
