Abstract

This paper investigates the distribution of negation strategies in Turkish Sign Language (TİD) in the light of frequency-based data from a naturalistic TİD Corpus. On the basis of frequency occurrences, this study offers a novel account of negation on typological grounds: (i) by focusing on nonmanual markers, we propose that a clause can be negated with a nonmanual element only – a pattern that has been typologically proposed for other sign languages – while previous studies classified TİD as a manual dominant language in terms of Zeshan’s typology (Zeshan, 2006), (ii) Also, we argue that backward head tilt has a syntactic characteristic, not lexically specified for NOT contrast to Gökgöz (2011), (iii) on the other hand, in line with Pfau (2016), we show that TİD can easily be classified as Non-Strict NC language. In addition, by proposing frequency-based typological distinction, we argue that TİD can be classified a hybrid negating sign language.

Türk İşaret Dilindeki Olumsuzluk Stratejilerinin Derlem-Tabanlı Tipolojisi

Abstract

Bu çalışma, doğal TİD derleminden elde edilen sıklık tabanlı veriye dayanarak Türk İşaret Dilindeki olumsuzluk stratejilerini incelemektedir. Sıklık görünümlerini temel alan araştırma, tipolojik temellerde olumsuzluğa yönelik yeni bir bakış açısı sunmaktadır: (i) el dışı belirleyicilere odaklanılarak, tümcenin sadece el dışı birimlerle olumsuzlanabildiği gösterilmektedir -bu örüntü, tipolojik olarak diğer işaret dilleri için öne sürülmektedir - öte yandan, TİD'e yönelik önceki çalışmalar Zeshan'ın tipolojisine göre TİD'i el baskın dil olarak kabul etmektedir (Zeshan, 2004; Zeshan, 2006), (ii) Gökgöz (2011)'in aksine başı geri yatırmanın sözdizimsel göreve olduğu ve DEĞİL ile sözlüksel olarak biçimlenmediği iddia edilmektedir. (iiii) Öte yandan, Pfau (2016)'ya koşut şekilde, TİD'in katı olmayan olumsuz uyum (Non-strict negative concord) dili olarak sınıflandırılabileceği gösterilmektedir. Ayrıca, sıklık-temelli tipolojik ulamlama öne sürülerek TİD'in hibrit olumsuzlama türündeki bir işaret dili olduğu ortaya konulmaktadır.
