As other hereabouts may know, I'm in to signed languages, ASL in
particular, which also happens not to have the copula "to be." A
while back, I saw a production of "Ophelia," a re-written "Hamlet"
from Ophelia's perspective. She did the famous "to be or not..."
speech, and she signed it as "To live or to die, that...," which, is
the best __interpretation__ I think I've ever heard.
