Subject: [Tango-L] Digital language
Digital sign language in Argentina is different from that in the USA.
The index finger shown alone (with the other fingers flexed in the
hand, the
dorsum towards the addressee the palm side towards the addresser and
with an
upward motion, means the same as showing the middle finger in the USA.
But a little motion of the index finger as a signal could have any
number of
meanings only known to the two persons involved, as Nancy pointed very
well.
Nancy the same as Sherrie go to B.A. very frequently so they know what
they are
talking about, their opinion is valuable as coming from the feminine
perspective
as well.
Best regards,
Sergio
