This collection of papers examines the interaction between natural language and its phonetic vessels - human speech or manual gestures. We seek to identify what linguistic aspects are invariant across signed and spoken languages, and determine how the choice of the phonetic vessel shapes language structure, its processing and its neural implementation. We welcome rigorous empirical studies from a wide variety of perspectives, ranging from behavioral studies to brain analyses, diverse ages (from infants to adults), and multiple languages - both conventional and emerging home signs and sign languages. 610 $asign language 610 $alanguage evolution 610 $amodality 610 $aemerging sign langauges 610 $alexical access 610 $arules 610 $auniversal grammar 610 $ahome signs 700 $aIris Berent$4auth$01291855 702 $aSusan Goldin-Meadow$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910131529503321 996 $aLanguage by mouth and by hand$93022004 997 $aUNINA
