概括
新手手语用户越来越多地使用多动词语句 (MVP) 来顺序表达含义,与之前的用户不同,他们同时标记含义. 尼加拉瓜语 (LSN) 发展的这种转变反映了语言演变模式.
科学领域:
- 语言学的语言学.
- 语言获取 语言获取
- 社会语言学 社会语言学
背景情况:
- 语言在表达复杂含义的方式上有所不同,它们可以在单个动词中同时表达,也可以在多个动词中顺序表达.
- 复杂的预言,如单动词预言 (SVPs) 和多动词预言 (MVPs),说明了这种变化.
- 了解语言结构的二次变化可以阐明类型学多样性.
研究的目的:
- 为了调查同步与顺序意义表达的类型变化是否来自系统的二次变化.
- 分析新兴的手语,尼加拉瓜语 (LSN) 中代理和数字的预言标记的发展.
主要方法:
- 在LSN中检查了动词短语中的代理和数字标记的分布.
- 在20多年的时间里,比较了家庭签名系统,早期的LSN (LSN1) 和后来的LSN (LSN2) 签名器.
- 分析了预言中的动词对意义的同时或顺序标记.
主要成果:
- 与家庭签名器和LSN1签名器相比,LSN2签名器更频繁地产生MVP.
- 家庭签名者和LSN1签名者主要在MVP中同时在至少一个动词上标记代理和数字.
- LSN2签名者在MVP中增加了在顺序分离的动词上标记代理和数字的倾向.
结论:
- 在新兴的手语中,语言的获取,模式和社会因素推动了预言结构的变化.
- 观察到的LSN变化表明了双时发展的途径,导致跨语言的预言结构的类型多样性.

Language Development
447
Children master language quickly and with relative ease, supported by both biological predisposition and reinforcement. B. F. Skinner (1957) proposed that language is learned through reinforcement, while Noam Chomsky (1965) argued that language acquisition mechanisms are biologically determined.
The critical period for language acquisition suggests that the ability to acquire language is at its peak early in life. As people age, this proficiency decreases. Language development begins very...

Components of Language
392
Language, whether spoken, signed, or written, consists of specific components: lexicon and grammar. The lexicon is the vocabulary of a language, comprising its words. Grammar is the set of rules used to convey meaning through the lexicon. For example, English grammar adds “-ed” to most verbs to indicate past tense. Words are formed by combining phonemes, which are the basic sound units of a language. Different languages have different sets of phonemes (e.g., “ah” vs.

Lateralization
469
Brain lateralization refers to the division of mental processes and functions between the two hemispheres of the brain, a phenomenon that optimizes neural efficiency and underpins complex abilities in humans. This specialization allows each hemisphere to perform tasks where it has a comparative advantage, facilitating more refined cognitive capabilities across different domains.

Biological organization is the classification of biological structures, ranging from atoms at the bottom of the hierarchy to the Earth's biosphere. Each level of the hierarchy represents an increase in complexity that builds upon the previous level.
Molecules Are Composed of Atoms, and Biomolecules Are Assembled from Molecules:
The most basic levels include atoms, molecules, and biomolecules. Atoms, the smallest unit of ordinary matter, are composed of a nucleus and electrons. Molecules...

Higher Mental Functions of the Brain: Language
1.0K
Language is a system of communication that allows the expression of thoughts, ideas, and feelings. The brain processes language in both hemispheres.
Language formation and comprehension take place in the dominant hemisphere. The dominant hemisphere is responsible for understanding the meaning of spoken, written, or sign language, as well as the ability to communicate. For most people, the left hemisphere is the dominant one. The right hemisphere, then, gives tone and emotional context to the...

Introduction to Structures
1.2K
A structure is defined as a system of interconnected members designed to support or transfer forces and successfully withstand the loads acting on them. The internal forces of a structure can be determined by decomposing the structure and analyzing the free-body diagrams of the individual members or of a combination of members. This helps in understanding the structural elements' behavior and ensuring that the structure is stable and can withstand the subjected loads.
