PDE – Steven D. Collins Findings and Interpretations _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 4.1.2.3. Example Three (Time) Gloss from Transcription: SHOW-ME PRO1 LATER / YOU CURIOUS YOU [hesitation] YOU++ HAVE THREE(emph) RIGHT V-I-B-R-A-C-A-L-L INCLUDED? // English Translation: You can show me the Vibracall later. I am curious, you have three Vibracall units installed, right? Visual ASL: The signer uses a non-tactile production of the sign with a facial expression in which the head tilts upwards and there is a raising of the eyebrows. LATER is not explicitly signed. Tactile ASL: In Tactile ASL, the sign for LATER must be explicitly signed because a Deaf- Blind individual cannot observe the non-manual signal. LATER is signed after the subject and, in this case, the hand is moved slowly. Analysis of Variation: In the visual ASL production of the sign, the use of a non-tactile facial expression is sufficient to communicate the adverb. There is no need for the signer to sign LATER. In the Tactile ASL production of the sign, a Deaf- Blind individual is not able to observe the non-tactile portion of the sign and consequently, LATER must be signed explicitly. The sign is used after the subject and is accentuated by having it signed slowly. Comments: The adverb LATER is functioning as an adverb showing time. 55
PDE – Steven D. Collins Findings and Interpretations _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 4.1.2.4. Example Four (Time) Gloss from Transcription: THREE THAT / PLUG-INTO CL:1 “wire goes around over the table” TABLE / WHERE PUT a,b,c,… LEAVE-IN-THAT-PLACE /// NOT USE IX-lf (control unit?) WAVE-NO UNTIL YOU FEEL++ / SEE #IF PAGER STILL WORK // PUSH-BUTTON (on phone transmitter) KEEP+++ UNTIL GOOD PUSH-BUTTON (on phone transmitter)++ / DEAD // SAME-AS CL:C “mounted box on the CL:B ‘door jamb’” // PUSH-BUTTON(on doorbell transmitter)++++ DEAD / CHANGE(battery) IX(doorbell)++ V-O-L-T 9++++ // IX(phone transmitter) V-O-L-T 9 CHEAP / PAGER EXPENSIVE(emph) / EXPENSIVE English Translation: I just leave the three transmitters where I put them. You don’t touch the control unit unless you want to test if the pager is still working. You keep the button pressed until you see (the battery) is good. This is similar to checking the doorbell battery. Use a 9-volt battery when changing the battery. A 9-volt battery is inexpensive while it is very expensive to replace the pager battery. Visual ASL: In visual ASL, it is rarely necessary to use a sign for UNTIL in order to show a time frame. Conditionals like this are produced with a facial expression consisting of a movement of the head up and then downwards. Tactile ASL: In Tactile ASL, the sign for UNTIL must be explicitly signed because a Deaf- Blind individual cannot observe the non-manual signal. Analysis of Variation: In the visual ASL production of the sign, the use of a non-tactile facial expression is sufficient to communicate the adverb. There is no need for the signer to sign UNTIL. In the Tactile ASL production of the sign, a Deaf-Blind individual is not able to observe the non-tactile portion of the sign and consequently, UNTIL must be signed explicitly. Comments: The adverb expressing time is UNTIL. 56
