[Sw-l] SignWriting Shorthand for Sign Language Stenography 1982

[Carlos Cristian Libras]

Greetings Writers List,
I downloaded the PDF, and I'm impressed. I never had access to this
document, my God, what a wealth. It will take me until 2050 to appreciate
every detail of this document.
All this time I was writing in cursive some techniques that I thought I had
invented, were already being used at that time, how easy it is to come to
the same conclusion.
As much as the system has changed a lot, this document is a relic for any
researcher. In addition to having listed the 1050 most used ASL signs ever
written in cursive. This archive is rich in so many different ways that I
don't even know where to start praising it.
Gratitude for sending us this file, it made my day happier.
