Abstract

Abstract:The following article looks into the question of negative affixation in Polish Sign Language. Until today only one negative prefix and one negative suffix were recognized in Polish Sign Language. Our research investigates farther these two affixes looking into their etymologies, constraints and new examples of their use. The negative prefix (neg–) results from PJM's contact with spoken Polish, while the negative suffix (–neg2) is an element native to PJM. Aside from a more indepth analysis of the previously known affixes, our research uncovers new suffixes (–neg3 and –neg4), an interfix (–neg1–) and a postfix (–neg5). The interfix has the same origin as the negative prefix. The suffix –neg3 comes from a sign meaning "lack of something." The suffix –neg4 originates from a natural gesture. The postfix is a result of a combination of a natural gesture and a sign.

波兰手语中的否定词缀

摘要:本文对波兰语手语中的否定词缀问题进行了探讨。直到今天，波兰手语中只承认一个否定前缀和一个否定后缀。我们的研究进一步调查了这两个词缀的词源、限制和使用的新例子。否定前缀(负-)来自PJM与波兰口语的接触，而否定后缀(- neg2)是PJM原生的元素。除了对先前已知词缀进行更深入的分析外，我们的研究还发现了新的后缀(- neg3和- neg4)，一个中缀(- neg1 -)和一个后缀(- neg5)。这个前缀与负前缀有着相同的起源。后缀-neg3来自一个符号，意思是“缺乏某物”。后缀-neg4源于一种自然的手势。后缀是自然手势和符号结合的结果。
