[Sw-l] Rotation symbols

Sun Apr 10 16:34:07 UTC 2022

Hi all,

I am always happy when many questions are asked here and there are also
answers to them. I learn a lot here.
I also still stumble over rotation symbols. Among us signwriters there are
also different understandings.
We need to make the tutorial better, because only then will sign language
be better accepted and more widespread.

Lately we have been very busy with writing sign2mint. And I hope you are
satisfied with the quality. I hope you will find some time to correct some
difficult sign scripts.

Here are a few examples where I'm interested if you read the signwriting,
would you sign like in the video.

I missed a movement here, which shows a half circle on the table.

are there other ways where you can read it better?

Thank you very much!

We will reach our goal "5000 signs at sign2mint" next week. :)
And at the beginning of May the lexicon will contain SWU. :)

And we are very happy that our new project was approved and we can work for
another 3 years. :)
Not on sign2mint, but a similar one will come.

Best regards
Uta
