In these spaces, how my interlocutors discussed the use and value of LIU took on conflicting ideological tones: on the one hand, they would emphasize the importance of access to sign language for deaf children, described as the “mother tongue” (<i>al-lugha al-ʾumm</i>) of deaf people. On the other hand, they would make comments that disparaged LIU as a form of “broken Arabic” (<i>ʿarabi mukassar</i>). I argue that these contradictory discourses can be productively read as forms of rhetoric: for instance, calling LIU the “mother tongue” of deaf Jordanians, rooted in its materiality, is a way for the start-up staff to convince audiences to support their cause, while describing LIU as “broken Arabic,” while incorrect, is useful insofar as it asks students of sign language not to sign in conformity to Arabic grammar. Building on recent work on sign language ideologies, I argue for understanding these contradictory discourses in the contexts in which they are deployed and for the centrality of language to deaf personhood in Jordan.</p>","PeriodicalId":47070,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Linguistic Anthropology","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jola.70003","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144074482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given recent changes in the US television landscape, we analyze two landmark series with First Nations showrunners: <i>Reservation Dogs</i> and <i>Rutherford Falls</i>. Specifically, our dataset consists of all dialogue transcribed from both series' first two seasons. We use generic (e.g., <i>Native</i>, <i>Indian</i>, and <i>tribe</i>) and specific (e.g., <i>Navajo</i>, <i>Lakota</i>, and <i>Oglala</i>) identity labels as a starting point, combining corpus linguistic analysis of these labels with a semiotic analysis of selected scenes. The study identifies not only what identity work is being done by such labels but also how they are leveraged in the creation of an Indigenizing semiotics that disrupts “White” settler colonial frameworks that have traditionally been promoted in the media, enacting semiotic processes that we call <i>overlay</i>, <i>icon-marking</i>, and <i>erasure-marking</i>. A comparison with supplementary data from Australia allows us to show that these Indigenizing tactics are not limited to one country.

By means of an in-depth qualitative study, I try to explain in which sense such monolingual and polylingual behaviors or styles are socially significant signs of difference (Gal &amp; Irvine, 2019). The study reveals that those styles are organized in an axis of differentiation (Gal, 2016; Gal &amp; Irvine, 2019) that takes the contrasting monolingual and polylingual styles as iconic representations linked to different personhoods or person-types. The participants of the study consider them tools to shape and create contrasting voices that interilluminate each other in different contexts on Instagram. The study also informs about new ideological dynamics among these young people. In fact, the most innovative results in this study are about the enregisterment of the polylingual style I study. It is becoming an exclusive in-group talk, and it is acquiring stereotypic indexical values related to informality. It is, moreover, being naturalized as a “social network speech” with which young people recreate multiple multicultural and playful voices.</p>","PeriodicalId":47070,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Linguistic Anthropology","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jola.12448","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144074719","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
