As a matter of fact, research on nonmanuals is still a quite uncharted territory in Austrian Sign Language (OGS) today, which has also initiated the study given. In order to identify head and body movements in OGS, these nonmanuals were determined and analyzed functionally via a new user-oriented methodology. Getting feedback of multiple native signers was a main part of this method. Accordingly, you will find the findings of this study in this volume: various functions such as negation, assertion, interrogativity, conditionality, and many more can be expressed nonmanually. Brand new insights into sign language research are given, as well as astonishing results: even (epistemic) modality can be expressed by particular head and body movements"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aSign languages and deaf communities ;$v9. 606 $aSign language$zAustria 606 $aGesture$zAustria 606 $aHuman body and language$zAustria 606 $aSemiotics$zAustria 606 $aAustrian Sign Language$xResearch 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSign language 615 0$aGesture 615 0$aHuman body and language 615 0$aSemiotics 615 0$aAustrian Sign Language$xResearch. 676 $a419/.436 700 $aLackner$b Andrea$01045361 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910467422003321 996 $aFunctions of head and body movements in Austrian sign language$92471585 997 $aUNINA
