AW: [sw-l] sign for Singapore

[Stefan Wöhrmann]

Hi Adam,

 

thanks for your answer. Well I have had a glance at the webside of this School fort he Deaf in Singapore and I agree that they perform SEE as well. What I am interested in – what would be your favourite sign – as you can see three puddles and three different spellings ... 

 

The sign in the  Dictionnaire BE-fr     Puddle  - matches the graphic – what do you think?

 

Stefan ;-)

A friend of my who traveled to Singapore said that the first one is more like SEE, but the way that it is written is how the Deaf community there sign it because it is related to Signapore being a collection of small islands. I don't know how true that is as it isn't by first hand.
