[Slling-l] COME and GO in SL

[Peyton Todd]

FSL may be different, of course, but I can report to you an interesting difference between ASL and English that I have noticed: in English we can say, e.g., 'I'll come visit you' (or at least I can), where the verb 'come' takes your point of view, so to speak. That is impossible in ASL, where the signs GO and COME must always match the literal direction of motion.
Good luck with your study,
Peyton Todd

Hello,
I am working  on the difference between COME and GO in french sign language.
I found lot of papers and researchs about spatial verbs, as classifier verbs of motion.
But I cannot find anything about lexical verbs of motion, and specifically about deitic verbs of motion.

Do you know where I can find references ?
Can anybody help me ?

Thanks,
