The negative existential cycle in Turkish Sign Language (TİD)
The evolution of negation is typically characterized as a cyclical process, whereby new constructions emerge to encode existing functions. The current corpus-based study undertakes an investigation into the evolution of the negative existential negator yok ‘non.exist’ in Turkish Sign Language (TİD). It seeks to investigate the applicability of the negative existential cycle as proposed by Croft (1991) and examines its potential as an explanatory …
The grammaticalization of the existential sign var in Turkish Sign Language
This paper describes the development of the existential sign var ‘there’ in Turkish Sign Language from a synchronic point of view. The sign has been previously described as being restricted to clause-final predicate position and typically used for two main linguistic functions: (i) existential and (ii) possessive. However, abundant corpus evidence indicates that var can also be used for other linguistic functions in post-verbal position, which ha…
The next station
More recently, grammaticalization theorists have become increasingly aware of the role of collocations in grammatical development. One of these roles is to define phonetic reductions and fusion in frequent collocations as constructionalization. Based on frequency of occurrences, the present study explores the implications of high-frequency collocations in Turkish Sign Language for grammaticalization and offers a novel account of constructional ch…
A Corpus-Based Typology of Negation Strategies in Turkish Sign Language
This paper investigates the distribution of negation strategies in Turkish Sign Language (TİD) in the light of frequency-based data from a naturalistic TİD Corpus. On the basis of frequency occurrences, this study offers a novel account of negation on typological grounds: (i) by focusing on nonmanual markers, we propose that a clause can be negated with a nonmanual element only – a pattern that has been typologically proposed for other sign langu…
Verbs in Turkish Sign Language
Recent studies show that semantic components of event structure are decomposable. In this study, the semantic components of events and event structure constructions will be examined within the framework of Talmy (2000) and Tang & Yang (2007)’s model on sign languages. Our analysis shows that lexical verbs have the same mechanisms with classifier predicates in terms of event structure constructions. Besides, we have determined that semantic compon…
Agreement Verbs in Turkish Sign Language (TİD) from the Perspective of Templatic Morphology
One of the peculiarities of sign languages is that verbs are listed in the lexicon according to agreement types that are categorized by tripartite verb classification of Padden (1983, 1988, 1990): (i) plain verbs, (ii) agreement verbs, and (iii) spatial verbs. However, Padden’s classical classification does not clearly present the mutually exclusive criteria between the verb types in that transitions between the types have been frequently observe…
