两个失聪的姐妹篇(71岁和68岁)使用一个家庭手语系统,该系统似乎是在没有传统手语或口语输入的情况下开发的。他们的家标志主要由各种指向手势和口头动作组成。指向手势被认为是词汇的一部分,不仅指现在的人,物体或地点,而且指非现在的物体。此外,一些指向手势是指涉冗余的,在句子中占据固定的位置,这表明它们被用作语法术语。此外,口头动作经常与手势一起使用,其功能可分为词汇、副词和语法。最后,这个家的标志系统的语法成分进行了比较,与传统的手语,试图揭示一些共同的特点,在手势交流模式。
Two deaf sisters (71 and 68 years old) use a home sign system that appears to have developed without input from conventional sign or spoken languages. Their home sign consists primarily of various pointing gestures and oral movements. Pointing gestures were found to be part of lexical terms and refer not only to the present person, object, or place but also to nonpresent objects. Moreover, some pointing gestures were referentially redundant and occupied fixed positions in sentences, suggesting that they were used as grammatical terms. In addition, oral movements were frequently used together with manual signs, and their functions may be classified as lexical, adverbial, and grammatical. Finally, grammatical components of this home sign system were compared with those of conventional sign languages in an attempt to reveal some shared characteristics in the gestural mode of communication.
