  • Emergence or Grammaticalization? The Case of Negation in Kata Kolok

    Open AccessHannah Lutzenberger, Richard Pfau et al.ARTICLELanguages2022Citada por: 3Referencias: 62

    Typological comparisons have revealed that signers can use manual elements and/or a non-manual marker to express standard negation, but little is known about how such systematic marking emerges from its gestural counterparts as a new sign language arises. We analyzed 1.73 h of spontaneous language data, featuring six deaf native signers from generations III-V of the sign language isolate Kata Kolok (Bali). These data show that Kata Kolok cannot b…

  • Argument structure of classifier predicates in Russian Sign Language

    Open AccessVadim Kimmelman, Richard Pfau et al.ARTICLENatural Language and Linguistic…2020Referencias: 27

    We analyze classifier predicates in Russian Sign Language (RSL) using a combination of naturalistic corpus and elicited data in order to determine their argument structure, and to test the generalization, based on research on other sign languages, that there is a clear relation between argument structure and classifier type (Benedicto and Brentari 2004). We propose that whole-entity classifier predicates are intransitive unaccusative, and that bo…

  • Argument Structure of Classifier Predicates

    Open AccessVadim Kimmelman, Vanja De Lint et al.ARTICLEOpen Linguistics2019

    We analyze argument structure of whole-entity and handling classifier predicates in four sign languages (Russian Sign Language, Sign Language of the Netherlands, German Sign Language, and Kata Kolok) using parallel datasets (retellings of the Canary Row cartoons). We find that all four languages display a systematic, or canonical, mapping between classifier type and argument structure, as previously established for several sign languages: whole-e…

  • Eine Klasse für sich

    Open AccessSusanne Glück, Richard Pfau et al.ARTICLEZeitschrift für Sprachwissenschaft1997

    En partant du principe selon lequel la classification des verbes ne s'effectue pas seulement en fonction des proprietes semantiques du sujet ou de l'objet, mais aussi et surtout en fonction de leurs proprietes morphosyntaxiques, les As. examinent ici les divers procedes pour la classification des verbes dans la langue des signes allemande. Apres avoir etabli que les verbes classificatoires ne sont pas caracterises par un processus de mouvement (i…
