question on sign notation, small arrow heads

[Charles Butler]

I believe that there are three movements, not two.  I watched the video several times.  ASL has two movements for nouns, French Sign Language may have three.

I loaded my estomac-C on SignPuddle French, but I'm not sure I can edit it.

When fingers close in a Hinge Motion...down-down...close-close...

that do the closing...

writing the Position of Contact of the fingers...like in these  
American signs...



So the sign for ESTOMAC is like the ASL sign for NO-NO, but at a  
different angle and will two hands...

I personally would write it like Number 1 below, with no Finger  
Movement Symbols at all...but if you want to shorten the sign and  
take away a position, here are some possible ways to write it:
