Sign multilingualism Sign language typology series ;, no. 7./ Ulrike Zeshan; Jennifer Webster (eds.).

Abstract

This volume has arisen from a three-part, five-year study on language contact among multilingual sign language users, which has three strands: cross-signing, sign-switching, and sign-speaking. These phenomena are only sparsely documented so far, and thus the volume is highly innovative and presents data and analyses not previously available.
