AW: [sw-l] FLEMISH Translation Goldilocks Level 3

[Stefan Wöhrmann]

Hi Kathleen, Sarah, Valerie and friends,

I think that literature like this is very welcome for the purpose of our
Brussels meeting. It will be fun to study spelling issues  ... Perhaps we
can compare some "Goldilocks " SL - SW- documents--

Another interesting aspect is that I bet that neither you nor your students
would hesitate to sign "Kasterlinden" with the right hand - though you
choose to write the sign with the left hand ( of course by accident -
smile!)

So - once we introduced our spellings to new students they get accustomed to
that. They do not mind any rule violation or misspellings --
Nevertheless - a video is a wonderful piece in the whole package -

another question is whether you write after they signed or the other way
round - which would be a different idea!

Looking forward to meeting you in Brussels

Stefan ;-))

Dear SW List...
Kathleen and Sara are in the process of translating the book Goldilocks
Level 3, from ASL and English, into Flemish spoken and signed
languages. They have asked for feedback on how to write some of the
signs. This will be good for all of us to learn together. Here is page
one, a screen capture from the MicroSoft Word document...It looks very
beautiful!! My first question...Do you feel you need the blue lines
marking the columns? Can we take away the column-markers later?
smile...And all the signs look clear to me except possibly the very
last sign at the bottom...the palm facing is not quite right, I
suspect...What does that sign mean? Can you tell us what the palm
facing is supposed to be?...I look forward to your answer...  Val ;-)
