Hi,
I'm trying to understand why some signers use their non-dominant hand to point to their dominant hand for some signs. I've asked a few people who I've seen do it in person, but they didn't really notice it, or why. Is it for emphasis? Some seem to do it just when fingerspelling, but others seem to do it for certain signs. It does seem to be a more formal way of signing.
Thanks in advance, Pete
