[Adam Frost]

On second thought, it doesn’t look any clearer.

It is the second column third sign down - the one in the middle of the second column. Is the index finger touching between the baby finger and the ring finger? If the symbol was reduced in size for printing documents, it might be hard to read but if there is no alternative that is ok too ;-)

>>> ThaiSL fingerspelling for vowels, tone marks, and other symbols is shown in the photo and video link below. The right index finger is used to indicate a vowel or a tone mark of a syllable on a part of the left hand's palm or fingers.
>>> There appear to be symbols used in the SignMaker to write the detailed digit location, but I'm not clear how to use them since I couldn't find a description in the SW Textbook.
>>> So, which SW symbols should these gestures be written with, and how should they be written?
