Hello Dali Balti from Tunisia, and Steve and Diane Parkhurst in Spain...

Dali Balti has translated several chapters of the book: "A Cross-Linguistic Guide to SignWriting", by Steve and Dianne Parkhurst,  into Chinese! 

Dali sent me the chapters and I tried to post them to the SignWriting List, but the book is too large and I will need to post it on the web -

WOW, Dali, what an amazing gift and accomplishment -

This is the first SignWriting book that I know of, translated into Chinese - Is it Mandarin or Cantonese? I assume Mandarin...

I will post this on our web site:

SignWriting Lessons
http://www.SignWriting.org/lessons

I need to update this web section anyway, since there are also other new textbooks written, and new videos as well - 

So this is welcome news -

Many thanks once again, and thanks also, for teaching SignWriting in Tunisia -

Val ;-)
