在比较手语词汇相似性时应考虑象似性，但在研究其历史相关性时应排除象似性。 Woodward (1978, 1991, 1993) 修改了 Swadesh 列表，排除了用于历史比较的身体部位符号和代词。除了身体部位符号和代词外，本研究还排除了具有相似标志动机的符号以进行历史比较。初步结果显示，台湾手语（TSL）和日本手语（JSL）可以被视为同一语系的语言，而TSL和中国手语（CSL）则不能。 TSL 和 CSL 的相似之处在于语言接触。 TSL 和美国手语 (ASL) 最不相似。具有标志性动机的符号在手语中普遍存在且普遍存在。手语的词汇比较也可以针对各种类型的标志装置进行，甚至对于历史上不相关的语言（例如 TSL 和 ASL）也可以进行。
Iconicity should be taken into account for the comparison of lexical similarity in sign languages, but it should be excluded for the study of their historical relatedness. Woodward (1978, 1991, 1993) modified Swadesh list by excluding body part signs and pronouns for historical comparison. In addition to body part signs and pronouns, signs with similar iconic motivation are also excluded in this study for historical comparison. The preliminary result shows that Taiwan Sign Language (TSL) and Japanese Sign Language (JSL) can be considered as languages of the same family, while TSL and Chinese Sign Language (CSL) can not. The similarity between TSL and CSL are due to language contact. TSL and American Sign Language (ASL) are least similar. Signs with iconic motivation are prevalent and universal in sign languages. Lexical comparison of sign languages can also be conducted with respect to various types of iconic devices even for historically unrelated languages such as TSL and ASL.
