Proximity markers emphasize spatial or temporal proximity. Proximity in TİD can be expressed with furrowed eyebrows, squinted eyes, and tongue protrusion where the tip of the tongue is pushed through the lips. For instance, when these non-manual markers are combined with the manual sign near, the resulting meaning is ‘very close’ or ‘right there’
