[Sw-l] SignWriting Video Transcription Library

[Uta Meißner]

Dear Valerie,

it sounds very great. That's is very important. So, we can see, how are
signs transcribed. My experience is, that there is too much scope. And the
makes it difficult to read foreign transcription.

Can a video contain several signs?
I cant' find the library with your 3 Videos. Where are they?

Thank you!

Greetings Uta
