Information on data and consultants
The descriptions in this chapter are based partially on the references below and on the elicitation of new data. For information on data and consultants see the references. The video clips exemplifying the linguistic data have been produced by Deaf native-signing consultants.
As for SYNTAX 2.1.3.2, it is important to keep in mind that, due to the lack of clear passive morphology, the identification of passive constructions in sign languages is difficult and still very controversial. In this section, the reader finds the description of some preliminary data collected on the functional equivalent of passive constructions in LIS.
