Hello Jonita and Ron!

Ron tells me you already have the Lessons in SignWriting Textbook, so  
you do have a listing of most of the Facial Expressions...

Now...regarding writing PAH and other specific expressions...

You sent me an attachment in your original message, to show me some of  
the facial expressions you wanted to write? My computer could not open  
that file. What software was it written in? Please send it again  
in .mov or .wmv format...or photos in .jpg or .jpeg or .png...

Meanwhile, how to write PAH?

I looked in our ASL Dictionary in SignPuddle and this example was the  
only one listed there...

I wish there were other examples, because I have seen many different  
ways to write PAH over the years...So I added another one:

It is air coming out of the mouth with the lips starting tense and  
then opening...

List members...how do you write PAH? Hope you can add your versions to  
the ASL Dictionary in SignPuddle...
