Universal Constraints on Two-Finger Extension across Sign Languages.
Woodward, James
Sign Language Studies, n46 p53-72 Spr 1985
Examines the two-finger extension as a hand shape in sign language by analyzing data on 10 different sign languages. The analysis shows that a theory of marking can be developed for sign languages along the same lines as those used for spoken languages--only the particular physiology is different. (SED)
