Metathesis
When a sign changes place. (honeymoon, restaurant, flower, twins
Symmetry Condition
Two handed signs, same hand shape, have a type of movement (ex: DRAMA)
To who/by who
Add names in lower case: deb-ASL-TO-terry
Hold Deletion
Eliminates hold between sign; ex: good idea
Type 2
2 hand sign; one active one passive. Same handshape
Syntactic Break
,
Stress/Emphasis
*
Type 1
2 hand sign. Both hands active. May or may not make contact. Movement can be alternate or synchronous.
Assimilation
Takes a segment near it, before or after. The "you" for you + Inform. Refers to the use of hands and fingers going from one sign to the next.
Compound Words
Curve between two signs at top. True^Work
Back and Forth
<-->
Opaque Signs
Not recognizable. New
What are the 5 phonological processes?
Movement epenthesis, hold deletion, metathesis, assimilation, weak hand deletion
What does movement hold involve?
Strong and weak hand; handshake; focal point where the hand is placed; direction; NMM
Phonology
How the sound system in languages are formed
Tpe 3
2 hand sign; one active one passive, two different handshapes
Gloss is written in:
all caps
Alternating manner
alt
Movement Hold
Developed by Scott Liddell and Robert Johnson. Movement Holds are about the holds and movements that are produced in sequence. They refer to the place where the sign is made and its transition.
Wiggle
wg
Action
" around a word
Modulation of the word
" around the word in lower case
Dominance Condition
Two handed signs; two different handshapes ONLY that the active hand moves while the other hand acts as a base and does not move (ex: Word, Money)
Repeat
++++
Classifier
CL
Morphology
How words are constructed out of smaller meaningful units
If the sign is a question and involves a wriggle movement:
QM-wg
List the facial morphemes
WHQ, YN, RH, NEG, NOD, T, C, COND, RC, CS, Th, Mm, Puff cheeks, intense, pursed lips, sta, pah, cha, pow, co
Two Hands
(2h)
Pragmatics
How the meaning of the word/sentence are conveyed
Weak hand deletion
Sometimes a weak/passive hand is deleted. Ex: Cat, horse, deer)
Marked Handshapes
Infrequent, more errors, children later, most difficult because they require fine motor skills: X, 7, R, T, E 8
If a sign is off to one side, indicate by writing:
rt, lt, crt
Type C
When any of the above have more than 2 or more of the types. Any compound signs
Handshape Typology
0, X, 1, 2, 3, C
William Stokoe
Linguist who researched ASL, proved that ASL is a language, developed the Stoke system SS-notation system where he developed the first 3 parameters
Type O
1 hand sign without contact
Contractions
Curve between signs at the bottom; why_Not
Movement epenthesis
Segments occur in sequence, movement between the 2 signs with a hold in the middle. Ex: Father study
Fingerspelling
fs or __-__-__
Unmarked Handshapes
Most common, less errors, children learn first, easy to learn and sign. They are: A, S ,B, 5, G, C, O
Syntax
How sentences are related to each other.
What are the five parameters of ASL?
Handshape, location, movement, palm orientation, facial expressions (NMS)
Loan Sign
#
Language
Rule-governed communication system.
Semantics
How word-sentences relate to the objects they refer
Phonetics
How speech sounds are formed.
Transparent Signs
Highest degree of iconicity-easily understandable by someone who is not familiar with sign language (ex: Tree)
Gesture
"WHAT"
Type X
1 hand sign with contact
