Item type:Publication, Conceptual metonymy in the creation of concrete nominal signs in Peruvian Sign Language: Towards a metonymic typology(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2022-01-01)This paper aims to analyze the creation of concrete nominal signs in Peruvian Sign Language (LSP, for its initials in Spanish). To do this, we have mainly collected data available online. Within the framework of cognitive linguistics, we propose a classification for the metonymic construction of concrete nouns in this signed language. As we propose, Peruvian Deaf people use either static or dynamic aspects or both combined in the creation of these signs. Based on these considerations, we establish metonymies and metonymic variants as part of the classification as an explanatory framework of LSP. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Argument Structure in Peruvian Sign Language(Springer International Publishing, 2023-01-01)This chapter offers an analysis of Peruvian Sign Language argument structure. It argues, following insights from research on other sign languages, that there is a correlation between the type of certain classifiers and the type of predicates predicted by the Unaccusative Hypothesis. In addition, it shows how the operation Agree values the specific features of each classifier, accounting for their handshape. Furthermore, it provides evidence in favor of the assumption that externalization of sign language syntactic structures follows a layering system, where various pieces of grammatical information can be externalized simultaneously, expressing predicates and arguments in a single sign.
