Understanding
Systems of language
- Elaboration 1
- understanding that signs can be iconic in a number of ways, such as
representing a whole object or part of an object
- identifying signs with different levels of iconicity, for example, those that
are fully transparent, translucent or arbitrary
- recognising that signed languages show more iconicity than spoken languages
because they are visual not auditory, and that most referents have visual
features
- identifying and classifying examples of spatial modifications of nouns and
verbs in a video text using video annotation software, for example, ELAN
- glossing a text independently, identifying what signs are used, any NMFs, and
any examples of DSs and CA
- beginning to use annotations in a glossed text to show spatial modification of
nouns and verbs
