Combining Formational Elements
A sequence of two hand shapes is prohibitedin the native sign of ASL and other sign lan-
guages Assimilation process:• greenback and beanbag
The nasal sound [n] often assimilates the labial
place of articulation from the [b] that fol-lows it:
gree(m)back, bea(m)bag. • oversleep made from two words sleep and sunrise

Word Formation
Vocabulary of sign languages is purely iconic: there is one-to-one relationship between the form of a word or concept and its meaning.The ASL sign for airplane looks something like an airplane; the sign for give looks something like the act of handing something to someone.

Verb AgreementSign language verbs agree in person and in number with their subject and object.
Time-Subject-Verb-Object or Time-Subject-Verb for word
order. That is, when discussing past and future
events a time-frame is established before the rest of
the sentence, for example: WEEK-PAST I WASH MY
CAR. The active voice is in
Subject-Verb-Object word order:
BOY THROW BALL. The passive voice is in
Object, Subject-Verb word order: BALL BOY
THROW.

Recursionwe can put sentences inside other sentences and these can be Generated inside sentences.
Examples:Mary helped George.Cathy knew that Mary helped George.John believed that Cathy knew that Mary helped George.In English, recursion is often used to create ex-pressions that modify or change the meaning of one of the elements of the sentence. For exam-ple, to take the word nails and give it a more specific meaning, we could use an object relative clause such as that Dan bought, as in Hand me the nails that Dan bought.

Language as an Art Form: Sign Language Poetry
The fact that poetry arises in deaf community teaches us:
the desire and ability to mold the formational elements of language into an artistic expression of
its content is a hallmark of human culture.

but for artistic use of language as well.
