The Social Basis of Referential Communication: Speakers Construct Physical Reference Based on Listeners' Expected Visual Search

Julian Jara-Ettinger et al.

Summary: A foundational assumption in human communication is that speakers should aim to provide enough information, but not more than necessary. This study proposes a computational theory where speakers create referential expressions to aid listeners in real-time reference resolution. Results suggest that speakers' goal in language production is collaborative, to help listeners identify intended referents, rather than egocentrically minimizing utterance length.

Sizing up adjectives Delimiting the adjective class in American Sign Language

Cornelia Loos

Summary: Adjectives in sign language are often identified based on notional or translational criteria, showing a lack of formal standards in the field. This study reveals that American Sign Language has an open adjective class, with core adjectives being more commonly used as modifiers rather than sentential predicates.

Perceptual optimization of language: Evidence from American Sign Language

Naomi Caselli et al.

Summary: The study examined whether sign languages have adapted to the affordances and constraints of the signed modality. The findings suggest that frequent signs are more likely to be produced further from the signer's face, while signs with rare handshapes tend to occur closer to the face. This empirical evidence supports the notion that the phonological structure of sign language is influenced by the properties of the human visual and motor systems.

On the acquisition of complex classifier constructions by L2 learners of a sign language

Eveline Boers-Visker

Summary: Sign language learners with a spoken language background face the challenge of acquiring a second language in a different modality. One of the phenomena they encounter is the use of classifier predicates, which contain a meaningful hand configuration to indicate the location, motion, and orientation of a referent. This study followed 14 novel learners of Sign Language of the Netherlands (NGT) for two years, revealing that learners initially struggle with the orientation of objects and handshape selection.

Phonological priming in German Sign Language An eye tracking study using the Visual World Paradigm

Anne Wienholz et al.

Summary: The study found a phonological priming effect for sign pairs sharing handshape and movement while differing in location parameter. This suggests a difference in the contribution of sign parameters to sign recognition and that sublexical features influence sign language processing.

Word Order Predicts Cross-Linguistic Differences in the Production of Redundant Color and Number Modifiers

Sarah A. Wu et al.

Summary: The study reveals that English speakers are more likely to use redundant color modifiers when describing objects with unique shapes and colors compared to Spanish speakers. The findings support the incremental efficiency hypothesis, showing how subtle differences in language can influence the way we describe the world.
