Sign Languages: Structures and Contexts provides a succinct summary
of major findings in the linguistic study of natural sign
languages. Focusing on American Sign Language (ASL), this book:
offers a comprehensive introduction to the basic grammatical
components of phonology, morphology, and syntax with examples and
illustrations; demonstrates how sign languages are acquired by Deaf
children with varying degrees of input during early development,
including no input where children create a language of their own;
discusses the contexts of sign languages, including how different
varieties are formed and used, attitudes towards sign languages,
and how language planning affects language use; is accompanied by
e-resources, which host links to video clips. Offering an engaging
and accessible introduction to sign languages, this book is
essential reading for students studying this topic for the first
time with little or no background in linguistics.
