Unfortunately, animation poses several challenges stemming from the necessity of grappling with massive amounts of data. However, the linguistics of ASL may aid in surmounting the challenge by providing structure and rules for organizing animation data. An exploration of the linguistic and extralinguistic behavior of the brows from an animator's viewpoint yields a new approach for synthesizing nonmanuals that differs from the conventional animation of anatomy and instead offers a different approach for animating the effects of interacting levels of linguistic function. Results of formal testing with Deaf users have indicated that this is a promising approach. 606 $aSign language$xGrammar 606 $aLanguage and languages$xGrammars 615 0$aSign language$xGrammar. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xGrammars. 676 $a419 686 $aES 175$qSEPA$2rvk 701 $aHerrmann$b Annika$0944463 701 $aSteinbach$b Markus$0317853 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910964937603321 996 $aNonmanuals in sign language$94346570 997 $aUNINA
