Diachronic changes the Nicaraguan sign language classifier system
This article presents an exploration of the usage and distribution of the 1-handshape classifier (Cl-1) and the 2-handshape classifier (Cl-2), both diachronically and synchronically, tracking classifier development in a detailed dataset of Nicaraguan individual homesigners and two groups of Nicaraguan Sign Language signers. Both phonological and semantic dimensions are analyzed in service of discerning what factors impact the choice and phonologi…
Formal and functional factors in classifier choice
Traditionally so-called classifiers in productively formed verbs of motion and location in sign languages are said to reflect the semantic class of the moving or located entity. The verbs can include one of several different classifiers about humans and anthropomorphic beings. In this article, we examine phonological and semantic factors that influence the choice of classifier in elicited narratives in two sign languages, Danish Sign Language and…
