Dear all,

I would like to know if researchers of other sign languages have similar
observations where a classifier construction is made up of a conventional
sign (dominant hand) and a classifier (non-dominant hand)? The dominant hand
articulates a lexicalized classifier construction  (one-handed) and this
sign  is incorporated into a classifier construction.
