Hello to all SignWriting List members,

I have a question, if you are available to help me, I would greatly
appreciate it.

My question is in the nomenclatures (termologies) used for the
dimensionality (perspective) of the Sutton SignWriting system. I know that
the category of movements, the arrows for example, can be written in the
plane parallel to the wall, plane parallel to the floor and also the
diagonal plane. But, my question concerns the handshapes, in the book
Manual 2: SignWriting Hand Symbols, on page 4, it explains about the
perspectives of the handshapes, using the two nomenclatures (terms):

1- Front view or Top view;

2- Parallel with Wall Plane or Parallel with Floor Plan;

I understand that for the movement arrows we do not use the terms Front
View or Top View, as it only applies to handshapes, however, in the case of
handshapes I can use the terms “Parallel with Wall Plane or Parallel with
Floor Plane” also?

Attached is the print of the page of the mentioned book.

Thank you all for the attention!

Hugs!
