"Classifier" predicates in SLs

[Adam Schembri]

Thanks to Rachel Channon, Elisa Maroney, and Ruth Morgan for drawing my
attention to the discussion of  "classifier" predicates in the Namibian SL
dictionary; to Debra Aarons for the reference for Kenyan SL; and to Susan
Fischer for NS (Japanese SL).

Any other references for other signed languages? I will post a summary to
the list(s) of all references I have been able to gather together (the list
now stands at 28 signed languages described as having these constructions).

Adam
