Use of non-specific indefinite pronominals is a major\u0000 strategy, and this paper is the first study that identifies these forms in TİD. Moreover, we show that TİD has ways of marking\u0000 clusivity distinctions of indefinite arguments, and has a special sign that derives exclusive indefinite pronominals,\u0000 other. We argue that (i) whereas lateral-high R-locus is unambiguously associated with non-specificity, non-high\u0000 (lateral and central) loci are underspecified in terms of specificity; (ii) the R-locus of indefinite arguments observed in\u0000 agent-backgrounding contexts in TİD consists of two spatial features [+high] and [+lateral] which express non-specificity and\u0000 exclusivity.

Recently, a growing number of studies are focusing on the distribution of two representation techniques, i.e. the use\u0000 of entity handshapes and handling handshapes for the depiction of hand-held tools (e.g. Ortega\u0000 et al. 2014). Padden et al. (2013) find that there is cross-linguistic\u0000 variation in the use of this pair of representation techniques. This study looks at variation in a representation technique that\u0000 has not been systematically studied before, i.e. the delimitation of a stretch of space to depict the size of a referent, or\u0000 space-based distance for size depiction. It considers the question whether the cross-linguistic variation in\u0000 the use of this representation technique is governed by language-specific patterning as well (cf. Padden et al. 2013).\u0000 This study quantifies and compares the occurrence of space-based distance for size depiction in\u0000 the lexicons of six sign languages, three of Western European origin, and three of West African origin. It finds that sign\u0000 languages differ significantly from each other in their frequency of use of this depiction type. This result thus corroborates\u0000 that the selection and distribution of representation techniques does not solely depend on features of the depicted image, but\u0000 also on language-specific patterning in the distribution of representation techniques, and it adds another dimension of iconic\u0000 depiction in which sign languages may vary from each other (in addition to the entity/handling handshape distinction). Moreover,\u0000 the results appear to be areally defined, with the three European languages using this representation technique significantly more\u0000 often than the three African languages.","PeriodicalId":43398,"journal":{"name":"Sign Language & Linguistics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2018-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46775568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

HKSL does not show impersonal uses of personal pronouns\u0000 (e.g., they, you) which are commonly found in spoken languages. The nominal strategies are determined by the\u0000 contexts and the referential properties of the impersonal referents, and they differ in the use of space in representing the\u0000 impersonal referents in subsequent discourse. R-impersonal referents encoded by onedet-path\u0000 \u0000 (someone)/onedet-path\u0000 (anyone) are associated with an area of the upper part of the ipsilateral side\u0000 of the signing space, but they can still be assigned to a specific locus if the subsequent discourse requires locative\u0000 information.

Regarding coordination, Coordination Phrase (CoP) is proposed as the category for conjunctive, disjunctive and adversative coordination, assuming that the conjuncts are specifiers and complements of CoP in a right-branching coordination structure. The specific derivation for each types of coordination is then applied. As for gapping in conjunction, in LSC it shows similarities with VP-ellipsis, especially because it can appear also in subordination. Moreover, the availability of only distributed scope negation (¬A&¬B) and the presence of contrastive topic and contrastive focus require a large coordination structure, that is, CP coordination. In order to derive gapping, I propose movement of the arguments to TopP and FocP followed by the deletion of TP at PF, with [E] feature in the head of FocP.","PeriodicalId":43398,"journal":{"name":"Sign Language & Linguistics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2018-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45373323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
