Talk:Korean manual alphabet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Have all the images, but they need to be rotated 90 degrees. Anyone know a program I can use to simply rotate an image? (Illustrator and Photoshop won't work, it seems, and MS Photo Editor has never worked on my machine.) kwami 08:35, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
- Nevermind. Found a useful little freeware program called jpegcrop that does lossless rotation, cropping, and other simple editing tasks. kwami 20:00, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] source
Sorry, folks. I photocopied this info off a hand-drawn chart on p 49 of a book I checked out of a library in Japan. I have no idea what the title of the book was. It had charts of lots of manual alphabets, and seems to have been completely in English. kwami 20:27, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] good job!
You did well with this, when I get back from vacation I need to finish up the Japanese yubimoji page pictures I started. I got a copyright free (I belive) rag while in Korea. It seems to show you made a mistake on the "R" character. Cheers! (I'm not sure if this is on your watch page, so I'll tag your page with this comment too.)

- It looks the same to me. You'll notice that the only diff between R and T is that in T fingers 3 & 4 are adducted, whereas in R all three are separated. Your diagram shows R and T as being slightly more similar than my source does, but of course for pedagogical purposes we want to keep them as distinct as possible. kwami 23:07, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
