SignWriting List
March 15, 2006

Dear SW List Members!
We have several new members to the List from several  
countries...Welcome to you all....smile....

SignWriting is a way to write any Sign Language. It is not just for  
writing American Sign Language. It is used in around 40 countries  
now, to write the native signed languages that exist in each country.  
So if you need help to learn to write your Sign Language, feel free  
to write to the List and ask questions...That is the purpose of this  
List...is to learn to read and write any Sign Language in the world.

You are welcome to write email in ANY spoken language too...not just  
English....we have messages in French, German, Spanish,  
Portuguese...any language that uses the Roman Alphabet is welcome!

I wish we could write in Arabic, Russian, Chinese and other languages  
that do not use the Roman Alphabet, but the List software that  
controls the List messages cannot read those messages as far as I  
know...although you are welcome to try and we can see what happens - ha!

I love receiving questions on the List!!

So ask anytime!


Val ;-)
