Documenting a Reduction in Signing Space in Nicaraguan Sign Language Using Depth and Motion Capture
Cogn Sci. 2023 Apr;47(4):e13277. doi: 10.1111/cogs.13277.ABSTRACTIn this paper, we use motion tracking technology to document the birth of a brand new language: Nicaraguan Sign Language. Languages are dynamic entities that undergo change and growth through use, transmission, and learning, but the earliest stages of this process are generally difficult to observe as most languages have been used and passed down for many generations. Here, we observe a rare case of language emergence: the earliest stages of the new sign language in Nicaragua. By comparing the signing of the oldest and youngest signers of Nicaraguan Sign Lang...
