thank you very much for your answer. That helps ... ;-) I am busy to explain the SSS to my German friends - hmm translating the various terms and trying to follow the systematic that is behind the whole system I stumbled over this "variation" - I only found number 01 for this descriptive term of a given sign - Can you give me a hint - What does "variation" of any given sign mean ?? Can you show an example ? Thank you Stefan ;-) ----- Original Message ----- From: Valerie Sutton To: Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2001 6:18 AM Subject: Trill or Tremble > SignWriting List > October 1, 2001 > > Stefan wrote: > >So here is my first question: What is the difference betwenn trill trill > >(03-04-002 SSS) and tremble (03-04-003 SSS) > > > Thanks for the question, Stefan.
