This project will ensure that the education of signing deaf children and the scientific study of human language are based on descriptions of sign language vocabulary and grammar that are supported by empirical evidence from representative samples of naturalistic language. The knowledge is essential for developing assessment and teaching tools for deaf children, for improving the training of sign language interpreters, and for understanding the results of research into human cognition and the processing of language-spoken, written or signed-in the brain. The internet accessible digital video corpus will be an important cultural archive, educational resource and scientific dataset for the on-going research.

该项目将确保手语聋哑儿童的教育和人类语言的科学研究以手语词汇和语法的描述为基础，这些描述得到来自自然语言代表性样本的经验证据的支持。这些知识对于为聋儿开发评估和教学工具、改进手语翻译的培训以及理解人类认知和语言-口语、书面语或手语-大脑处理的研究结果至关重要。互联网上可访问的数字视频语料库将是正在进行的研究的重要文化档案，教育资源和科学数据集。
