Modality and Structure in Signed and Spoken Languages Book

Signed languages are the naturally-evolved visual-gestural languages of deaf communities, and the realization that they are true languages is one of the great discoveries of the last 30 years of linguistic research. This book examines the linguistic properties of many sign languages, including detailed case studies of Hong Kong, British, Mexican, and German sign languages. The contributors focus on a single question: to what extent is linguistic structure influenced by whether a language is signed or spoken? Their answers contribute to our understanding of why languages are organized as they are.Read More
