[Sw-l] Rub contact

[Honza Fikejs]

Hello everyone,

Thank you for your responses.
In Czech Sign Language rub is signed anti clockwise typically on the hand
and clockwise on the body and head. The direction of the movement doesn't
change the meaning, but it is weird only to sign it in the wrong direction.
I like my origin idea to have two kinds of symbols (clockwise and anti
clockwise written). But maybe an additional arrow is clearer.

Does anyone know some signs that differ only in the direction of rubbing?

Honza
PS: Val, thank you. I get all the responses now.
