AW: [sw-l] SignWriting game from France...

Tue Oct 23 07:23:01 UTC 2007

Hi Adam and Charles, Valerie and friends

this sign for „urinate“ made me think again about hard to read (understand)
handshapes. 

The graphic shows the given hand shape but in the top row there are two
alternatives – benaeth you find right hands – 

Which one in the upper line is meant to show the right hand – smile - ? 

Stefan ;-)

I meant about the knuckle break in the hand.

This isn't top view.  This is the NOSE line, not the top view line.  The
hand faces the nose and then twists on the wrist a quarter turn.

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.

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 ;-)
