AW: [sw-l] POLAND... how to write MAKARON

[Stefan Wöhrmann]

Hi Lucyna, 

 

I would write your sign for Makaron as I understand your description this
way. 

 

Do not worry about the orientation – I mean hands straight down but not as
an angel – but the usual peformance will allow to understand this spelling
... smile!  The additional lines for diagonal orientation are not that
necessary in every single sign --- believe me! 

 

Stefan ;-)

>hmmm...that is a weird sign...Do the fingers of the left hand point forward
or back towards the chest?...If they point forward, then in the second sign,
you need to flop the left hand so the thumb is on the other side...and the
same for the right hand in the second sign...it needs to get the thumb on
the other side...and I wonder, is it really parallel to the floor? Perhaps
the hands are parallel to the Wall instead?..Then the first one makes sense,
because the fingers are pointing down then? You need to change the palm
facing....Try agin!

Hmmm... it's not what you mean... Both the hands are parallel to the wall,
but not exactly, just at a certain angle, say -- 45 degrees. From the top
view the hands should be considered as "black", from the front view - as
"white" or "white and black". The right hand is rubbing the left hand with
its whole "bottom surface" :-).
