Signed language classifier predicates

Sign Language and Linguistics (Online), 2000
It is argued that signed communication systems differ from spoken ones in having not one but two structured systems of representation. In addition to the linguistic mode (which is shared with spoken communication, and which appears to be fundamentally identical across spoken and signed modalities), signers also command distinctive, formal systems of ...

Events and telicity in classifier predicates: A reanalysis of body part classifier predicates in ASL

Lingua, 2007
This paper is an extension of the analysis of classifier predicates (CL predicates) in ASL in Benedicto and Brentari (2004) in order to account for event structure as well as argument structure, motivated by the specific claim that limb/body part classifiers (BPCL) are unergative predicates with single external arguments.

Classifier Predicates and the Creation of Multiple Perspectives in South African Sign Language

Sign Language Studies, 2003
This article examines some of the options that South African Sign Language offers for the representation of multiple perspectives on an event. The authors focus on picture descriptions that use classifier predicates. They show that signers use constructed action in conjunction with classifier predicates to create simultaneous multiple perspectives on ...

A model of signed language ‘classifier predicates’ as templated visual representation

Sign Language and Linguistics (Online), 2000
A model of signed language classifier predicates is presented in which these forms are held to be a mode, not of linguistic, but of visual representation. This representation is largely schematic, combining discrete parts drawn from a finite set. Some of these parts or ‘templates’ may be truly digital or undeformable in nature, but some are argued to ...

Review article:Do Athapaskan languages provide a precedent for signed language “classifier predicates”?

Sign Language and Linguistics (Online), 2000
Dans les annees 70, Allan etablissait un parallele formel entre la morphologie verbale de certaines langues et les predicats classificateurs des langues des signes. L'exemple choisi etait celui des langues du groupe athapaskan, qui possedent des morphemes verbaux classifiant l'action du verbe en fonction de traits physiques de l'objet implique.

Classifying Predicates and Languages

International Journal of Foundations of Computer Science, 1997
The present paper studies a particular collection of classification problems, i.e., the classification of recursive predicates and languages, for arriving at a deeper understanding of what classification really is. In particular, the classification of predicates and languages is compared with the classification of arbitrary recursive functions and ...

Classifying recursive predicates and languages

1995
Our goal is to arrive at a deeper understanding of the classification problem. We study a particular collection of classification problems, the classification of recursive predicates and languages. In particular, we compare the classification of predicates and languages with the classification of arbitrary recursive functions and with learning ...
