Abstract:
Signed languages are the naturally-evolved visual-gestural languages
of deaf communities. The realization that they are true languages is
one of the great discoveries of the last thirty years of linguistic
research. This book examines the linguistic properties of many,
including detailed case studies of Hong Kong, British, Mexican and
German signed languages. The contributors focus on determining the
extent that linguistic structure is influenced by whether a language
is signed or spoken. Their answers contribute to further understanding
the organization of languages.
