Australian Sign Language (Auslan): An Introduction to Sign Language Linguistics


Description

This is first comprehensive introduction to the linguistics of Auslan, the sign language of Australia. Assuming no prior background in language study, it explores each key aspect of the structure of Auslan, providing an accessible overview of its grammar (how sentences are structured), phonology (the building blocks of signs), morphology (the structure of signs), lexicon (vocabulary), semantics (how meaning is created), and discourse (how Auslan is used in context). The authors also discuss a range of myths and misunderstandings about sign languages, provide an insight into the history and development of Auslan, and show how Auslan is related to other sign languages, such as those used in Britain, the USA and New Zealand. Complete with clear illustrations of the signs in use and useful further reading lists, this is an ideal resource for anyone interested in Auslan, as well as those seeking a clear, general introduction to sign language linguistics.

What happens in Vegas. It's one thing to have a one night stand with a sexy stranger. It's quite another to marry him. But that's what city-slicker Lauren Redstone does, waking up the morning after with a hot cowboy for a husband. As far as she's concerned, last night never happened, but Grayson wants to give their hasty marriage a try. Rouge X - red-hot romance just got steamier! Children learn the basics of faith life with this returning series. Author Dan Carr writes from a child's perspective to address common concerns. Child-friendly text and entertaining illustrations help children think about a behavior they encounter in daily life and then pray about it. Each book Trust download book expresses that all sinful behaviors are forgiven through Jesus sacrifice on the cross and encourages children to go to God in prayer any time they feel tempted or troubled. Scripture examples help children apply it to their lives. This series originally appeared in 1984 and returns by popular request.
