The sign for "note" means "to record," "make a note of something," "write something down,"
or "put it down on paper." "To document something."
NOTE / RECORD:
Handshape = modified "O"-hand, changes into a flat hand.
Deaf college students sometimes use note-takers in class so they can focus on the
interpreter. This is somewhat less common now than before due to laptops
and/or netbooks etc. making it possible to touch-type your notes and still
pay attention to the terp.
You can use the sign "NOTE" to mean "note-taker" by adding the "person."
sign
= NOTE + PERSON
Sample sentence: "Deaf college students sometimes use notetakers why?"
Deaf college students sometimes use a notetaker. I don't "need" one.
Once in a while they are nice to have, but I get along just fine without
one. Especially if I have my laptop handy.
