BRAZIL Sign for Mundo

[Valerie Sutton]

SignWriting List
November 5, 2005

Hello Charles, Antonio Carlos, Cris, Sergio, Augusto and so many  
wonderful List members from Brazil!

Would any of you enjoy being an Editor of the Brazilian SignPuddle  
dictionary online? It is free and simple. I send you an invitation in  
an email message that gives you a link to click on, to establish your  
password. And from then on, you can delete, rename and change any  
sign in the Brazilian SignPuddle...so just write to me if you would  
like to be an Editor.

Charles - regarding the sign for Mundo...I think your different  
choices are all interesting and I do not have an opinion. I have  
added one alternative writing for you, to think about, in the  
Brazilian SignPuddle...

As you know, that finger-by-finger closing symbol with all the  
connected dots is very intricate and detailed. Both the Parkhursts in  
Spain and Stefan in Germany teach another symbol too, that is  
simpler, and takes up less space...but it does not state which finger  
closes or opens first...but it still means one finger at a time...and  
maybe that is enough detail for the sign for Mundo...who knows? smile...

In this example I tried writing wrist circles instead of arms  
circles...I assume you will throw this example out of the Brazilian  
SignPuddle later and that is fine with me! ;-)

Thanks for your question!
