SignWriting game from France...

[Charles Butler]

He may need "pee" and "shit".  The French language (and I have noticed, Portuguese, are much less body shy than English.  ASL has signs for both and uses them freely.  I noticed in Brazilian grammar schools that showing cartoons for hygiene was much less prudish than American English.  "Toilet" doesn't cover all the shades of meaning he needs.  "Nao urine do chao" :(don't pee on the floor)  was in almost all of the college and high school restrooms.  


  pee
piss, urinate
to urinate, expel urine.

Hello everyone -
As you know I live in San Diego, and San Diego has wild fires right  
now. My home is safe at the moment, but I do have some friends  
staying with us who had to evacuate their home...we are watching TV  
to see if their home will burn or not...it is an incredible  
experience which is a repeat of the Cedar fires back in 2003...when  
we went through something similar...

Since I work out of my home, I am thinking through what hard drives  
to take with me if we have to evacuate too...but I doubt that will be  
necessary...The air is thick with smoke and raining ashes...

Anyway, thank you, Yaelle, for your message below...

Again, I need to ask you...what do you mean by English signwritings?  
British Sign Language, or Australian Sign Language, or American Sign  
Language?...all are different signed languages located in English- 
speaking countries...

If you mean American Sign Language, then look under TOILET in the ASL  
SignPuddle...that might be the sign you are looking for...or BATHROOM  
maybe...

Val ;-)
