Signed languages are the naturally evolved visual-gestural languages of deaf communities. There is no international sign language: this book investigates the linguistic properties of many sign languages - British, Mexican, Hong Kong, German - and the extent to which linguistic structure is influenced by whether a language is signed or spoken.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. The realization that signed languages are true languages is one of the great discoveries of the last 30 years of linguistic research. The work of many sign language researchers has revealed deep similarities between signed and spoken languages in their structure, acquisition, and processing, as well as differences, arising from the differing articulatory and perceptual constraints under which signed languages are used and learned. This book provides a crosslinguistic examination of the properties of many signed languages, including detailed case studies of Hong Kong, British, Mexican, and German sign languages. The contributions to this volume, by some of the most prominent researchers in the field, focus on a single question: to what extent is linguistic structure influenced by the modality of language? Their answers offer particular insights into the factors that shape the nature of language and contribute to our understanding of why languages are organized as they are. Signed languages are the naturally evolved visual-gestural languages of deaf communities. There is no international sign language: this book investigates the linguistic properties of many sign languages - British, Mexican, Hong Kong, German - and the extent to which linguistic structure is influenced by whether a language is signed or spoken.
