dc.description.abstract | Research has shown that spoken languages differ from each other in their representation of space. Using hands, body, and physical space in front of signers to represent space, do sign languages differ from each other? To what extent are they similar to spoken languages in their expressions of spatial relations? The present study targeted these questions by exploring the descriptions of static situations in sign languages (Turkish Sign Language, Croatian Sign Language, American Sign Language) and spoken languages, including co-speech gestures (Turkish, Croatian, and English). It is found that signed and spoken languages differ from each other in their linguistic constructions for the left/right and front/back spatial relation. They also differ from one another in their mapping strategies. Crucially, being a signer does not require more direct iconic mappings than a speaker would use. It is also found that co-speech gestures can complement spoken language descriptions. | en_US |
dc.description.sponsorship | This study is based in part on my dissertation project (Arik 2009) supported in part by NSF grant (BCS-0345314) awarded to Ronnie Wilbur, the Linguistics Program at Purdue University, the Lynn Fellowship, and the Bilsland Dissertation Fellowship given by Purdue Graduate School. A theoretical approach to the findings of my dissertation project is published in Arik (2010b). I thank CSP for their permission and anonymous reviewers for their comments for the present paper. I also thank the TID, HZJ, and ASL Deaf signers and the Turkish, Croatian, and English speakers as well as Aysel Başar, Marina Milković, Robin Shay, Katharina Schalber, Katie Watson, Robert Cloutier, Michael Covarrubias, Aly-son Eggleston, Josh Iddings, Elizabeth Strong, and Beril Tezeller Arik.
