When English was first written, page numbers were spelled out. Then it went through several changes when numbers got larger and more complex. That is where we are right now with ASL. I guess we just have to try it out for a while and see what becomes the standard. ;-)

Hello Adam, friends, SW Listers -

If you go to the ASL SignPuddle dictionary:

http://www.signbank.org/SignPuddle1.5/index.php?ui=1&sgn=4

and Search by Words for "page number"....look at my two versions of 110...which one do you prefer of 110?
