Popis: |
This study describes and compares possessive and existential constructions in three sign languages: American Sign Language (ASL), Austrian Sign Language (ÖGS) and Croatian Sign Language (HZJ). We note structural similarities in possessives and existentials across these three languages, as well as similar semantic restrictions on the types of possessor and possessum permitted. We also point out evidence for an underlying relationship between possessives, existentials and locatives, similar to that frequently reported for many spoken languages. |
