Agreement in Sign Languages - it's morpho-syntactic spacePresentation • May 3rd, 2021
Contract Type FiledMay 3rd, 2021Sign language agreement systems have long been topic of debate. In particular, the comparison between sign language three-dimensional spatial agreement with spoken language two-dimensional morphemic agreement has led to the question of the linguistic status of sign language agreement (gestural vs. linguistic in nature?). In this presentation, I will NOT address the status question. Instead, I will present a potpourri of three different studies (and study types) that circle around the modality-specific aspects of sign language agreement.
