Yes Val, thank you for your indications

I found most of the signwritings, *I lack only WEE WEE *for now. Is 
there an equivalent I dont know in English. I am very bad at 
informatics... sorry !! I'll show you the entire game 
*English/signwritings *and the other languages as soon as thoses are 
finished.

Many blessings, to You and your Earth Team !!
Yaelle:)
