A Grammar of Catalan Sign Language (LSC)

3.1.2. Number markers

Single agreement morphemes cannot incorporate information about the number of the subject. However, they can express if the number of the object is a distributive or exhaustive plural. In the next subsections, we will explain the different morphological strategies that LSC verbs use in order to express three different types of numerosity: dual, multiple, exhaustive, and reciprocal.
