How to write these Portuguese Colors

[Charles Butler]

I just looked at Adam's video and his thumb strokes his forehead.  One can't do that without the palm facing the face.  That's why I changed the handshape.  I had to dig to find the hand where the thumb is in front of the two spread fingers.

Hello Jorge!

Excellent!

This is the way you wrote the sign for CINZENTO, or GREY...very nicely written!




You wrote this with your palm of your hand toward your face.

In Adam's video of the sign, his palm was not toward his face, but was facing the floor...which is more correct? smile...
