>Are there any studies of the pros and cons of Signwriting when compared with >the notation scheme used in the ASL Dictionary and the BSL/English >dictionary? hi all, please note that the notation used in the BSL/English dictionary is not entirely the same as the stokoe notation in his ASL dictionary. the people who worked on the BSL dict. have made quite a numer of adaptations (which, i don't know) to suit their purposes. i believe mary brennan and graham turner were involved if you have any more questions to that. regards, susanne Susanne Bentele Universität Hamburg Institut für Deutsche Gebärdensprache und Kommunikation Gehörloser University of Hamburg Institute of German Sign Language and Communication of the Deaf Binderstr. 34 20146 Hamburg - Germany Tel.: ++49-40-428.38-6734 Geschäftszimmer: ++49-40-428.38-6737 ST: ++49-40-428.38-6738 Fax: ++49-40-428.38-6109 https://www.sign-lang.uni-hamburg.de/tlex
