What is "sign language linguistics"?
Sign language linguistics is the study of the structure and use of sign languages, which are visual languages that use hand shapes, facial expressions, and body movements to convey meaning. This field examines the grammar, syntax, and vocabulary of sign languages, exploring how they differ from spoken languages. Sign language linguists investigate how sign languages develop and change over time, as well as how they are used within deaf communities. This study helps to enhance understanding of the linguistic properties of sign languages and their role in communication and culture.
