[sw-l] spelling question

Hello Ingvild and Everyone!
Here is a diagram explaining the Single, Double and Triple Finger  
Squeeze dots...

The third one in your example, Ingvild, is technically writing a  
"Triple Finger Squeeze"...when three dots are written over fingers,  
and those dots are not connected with a line, then that means "three  
times squeeze"...

I know you didn't mean that...but a single dot would be perfect in  
example three... The single dot influences "all the fingers that are  
bent in the handshape"...so a single dot means that three fingers bend  
once...

If you only wanted one finger to bend and not the others, then that  
would be a different handshape...it would be a straight three hand but  
with only one finger bent and the other fingers would remain  
straight..smile...

More coming next message...

See attached...
