Hello Rachel and Ingvild -

Thank you, Rachel, for the question, and thank you, Ingvild for answering. Great to hear from you again.

Just as Ingvild said, the bar is the top view of the shoulders. If you look down on top of the head, we see the shoulders sticking out on each side of the head.

Other than that, I think your descriptions are fine, Rachel. Thank you for working on describing the symbols.

Val ;-)

I also imagine that I am looking down at the top of the head as though I were standing on a tall ladder behind the signer, so that when the scallop is at the top of the page, it means it is near the forehead/face and when the scallop is at the bottom of the page it means the back of the top of the head. Here is the set:

> 5 top of head behind right ear
> 6 top of head above right ear
