Elaborations
- analysing linguistic structures and features associated with more dynamic texts, such as back-channels and hesitations used in casual conversations
- applying knowledge of choices a signer can make in texts, for example by comparing two signers’ texts about the same topic and evaluating different language choices each made, such as when to tell and when to enact, or when to use DSs
- analysing signers’ use of pausing in a description or information report
- identifying all the ways a signer refers to the same referent throughout a text
- identifying examples of ellipsis, such as dropping the participants in verbs
- recognising that nouns that are being introduced are more frequently overt than when they are given already in a text
- recognising signs that function as interjections or discourse markers
