Val and all,
I came across a website just now and thought it would be great to have a
Signwriting equivalent in the English Dictionary. English uses a lot
of idioms and even though this page gives ASL video equivalents, I don't
know if Deaf use them.

I do know that as a late-deafened person, I struggle to minimize English
idioms when signing as it tends to confuse the communication.
