Sign for "Spaghetti"

[Charles Butler]

I've looked at at least five videos on spaghetti, and all of them have some traveling.  I found one very similar to the SignPuddle sign with a touch and then a spiral pull up and down rather than side to side, I've found a winding up motion (same movement as each other) without a touch.   I'm going to write them all and load them as variants so we can all look at them together.

I was thinking about the sign for Spaghetti. Maybe it should be circles in place? Does the sign for Spahetti really travel, or maybe the sign is trying to show a circular motion that is standing still like taking a fork and spoon and mixing up the Spaghetti a little like mixing a salad? If that is the case, then it is not a good example in our SignWriting textbook for traveling curved movement...smile...we will need to find another sign as an example for the curved looping movement...

Thanks for pointing this out, Natasha!

If they do not ever touch, then the hands would usually be written on the other side of the movement arrows (the outside) and the arrows are then pointing in to each other...the arrows "pull" the hands rather than "push"...but if the hands end contacting, then the arrows could push with the finishing contacted hand position written...so there can be several ways to write similar signs...
