In DGS, single and multiple entities are commonly accompanied by mouthings [Phonology 1.5.2] which resemble the German spoken words. As can be seen in the examples below the plural forms of the nouns book and child are accompanied by the corresponding German mouthings Bücher (a) and Kinder (b) respectively.
[buch] [bücher]
a. book – book++
‘a book – books’
[kind] [kinder]
b. child – child++
‘a child- children’
