Outstanding information, Bill, thank you!

I did not know about the tutorial video, which is excellent, so thank you for this link, which I will also place on our SignWriting web site - the link to the video will be helpful for everyone -

Can you follow the video, Maria?

And thank you, Stefan, for posting the instructive video, and for making DELEGS possible -

For me, I just go to the DELEGS Editor and start typing spoken language - and it works!

What a blessing... ;-))

It's in GebärdenSchrift, Stefan's German Signwriting and incorporates his MundbildSchrift, a set of symbols for mouth movement, meant to teach deaf children how to pronounce the German gloss associated with the signwritten word.
