  1. Dr. Bill Vicars ASL Linguistics

  2. A bit of review…

  3. Adding a movement segment between signs is:

  4. Movement Epenthesis

  5. What is an example of Movement Epenthesis?

  6. Example: The meaningless movement that is inserted between FATHER and STUDY when signing those two words.

  7. Shortening the holds when two signs occur in sequence:

  8. HOLD REDUCTION

  9. What is an example of HOLD REDUCTION?

  10. Hold reduction happens any time a sign normally has a hold but you get rid of it because you are stringing words together.What are some examples?

  11. Hold reduction examples: WHY NOT vs“WHY-NOT?”GOOD IDEAvs“GOOD-IDEA!”

  12. Segments of some signs can change places.What is that called?

  13. Metathesis

  14. What is an example of Metathesis?

  15. Metathesis examples:DEAFRESTAURANTHONEYMOON

  16. What is the big word for: “A segment takes on the characteristics of a nearby segment”?

  17. Assimilation

  18. Examples of assimilation?

  19. Example of assimilation: I KNOW(using a bent hand)

  20. The passive hand is dropped in a formerly 2-handed sign:

  21. Weak Hand Deletion

  22. Example?

  23. DEER COW CAT

  24. Quick Review:What is phonology?

  25. Phonology is a study of the smallest contrastive units of a language.

  26. What two types of segments are signs segmented into?

  27. Signs are segmented into holds and movements.

  28. During the hold portion of a sign what parameters does that sign have?

  29. HandshapeOrientationLocationNonmanual

  43. What does it mean when we refer to a rule as a “morphological rule”?…

  44. Calling a “rule” a “morphological rule” means that it is a description of a process that takes place at the morphological level of language.Morphological rules are the category we stick processes in when those processes involve creating or changing meaning.

  45. Calling a “rule” a “phonological rule” means that it is a description of a process that takes place at the phonological level of language.Phonolological rules are the category we stick processes in when those processes do NOT involve creating or changing meaning.

  46. The first contact rule, the single sequence rule, and the weak hand anticipation rule are morphological rules.

  48. [58] “GOOD-NIGHT”
