1 TIME AND SPACE IN TURKISH SIGN LANGUAGE (TID): IMPLICATIONS FOR THE THEORY OF LANGUAGE Engin Arik Purdue University 1
2 1. Introduction In the literature there are claims that time is conceptualized on the basis of space. Since entities in spatial relations are concrete and events in temporal relations are abstract, it is often stated that time is derived from space. There are findings that crosslinguistically spatial lexems are also used in temporal expressions. However, the lexical items in referring to space and time do not overlap exclusively. Nonetheless, these items are often neglected in discussions. 2
3 Sign languages provide clear cases to observe this since spatial relations are encoded in signing space but little is known how temporal relations are conveyed. Nevertheless, it is suggested that optional temporal adverbials carry grammatical tense in certain syntactic positions in American Sign Language. In this talk, I will pursue a gestalt analysis, i.e. frames of reference, in order to account for spatial and temporal relations in Turkish Sign Language (TID). I will claim that time is not derived from space but both time and space share a similar underlying mechanism, i.e. frames of reference. earik@purdue.edu 3
4 Three main views in understanding the space-time relationship. 1. One view states that languages lexicalize/grammaticalize spatial terms into temporal terms. a descriptive view that is used to understand apparent commonalities in spatial and temporal terms found in diverse languages. However, it does not offer any explanation for the other temporal patterns in that the source is not space. Nor does it have any explanation for the apparent similarities in two domains. earik@purdue.edu 4
5 2. Another view states that space is basic whereas time is a metaphorical extension of space. moving-time perspective in which time is understood as moving as in approaching, coming, etc. moving-ego perspective in which time is understood as static and ego moves as in going to.! metaphor and conceptualization are not defined explicitly.! the domain of the metaphor is not defined explicitly.! there is not enough empirical evidence for this metaphor to exist crosslinguistically. earik@purdue.edu 5
6 ! this view sees space is the most basic structure but does not discuss spatial language at all.! it is not clear how temporal and spatial axes are related.! the variations in expressing spatial relations on the basis of functional relations, extrageometric effects, and context and discourse effects on both spatial and temporal expressions are omitted entirely in metaphorical view. 3. In reference frames, the tools to investigate spatial language can be successfully applied to the investigations on time which I will pursue here. earik@purdue.edu 6
7 2. A Multi-modular Approach to Language In this talk I will assume a parallel architecture model of grammar in which the autonomy of the modules such as phonology, syntax, and semantics are acknowledged. Auditory information Smell Visual representation Syntax CS SR Haptic representation Emotion Action Proprioception Figure 1. CS-SR interactions (adapted from Jackendoff (1997 : 44). Phonology I Syntax I Semantics I Lexicon CS SR Figure 2. Interactions among SR, CS, Lexicon, Phonology, Syntax, and Semantics. earik@purdue.edu 7
8 3. Spatial Frames of Reference Frames of reference as coordinate systems, widely attested in typological studies, are combinations of F-G assignment and perspective. Reference Frames Origin Relation Type Egocentric vs. Allocentric Intrinsic Object Binary Allocentric Relative Viewpoint Ternary Egocentric Absolute Environment Binary Allocentric Table 1. The three reference frames. 8
9 3.1. A Multi-Modular Approach to Spatial Frames of Reference the SR hypothesis in which SR specifies spatial information such as axes and perspective in its geometric format. the CS hypothesis in which CS specifies that spatial information in its format Spatial Relations in Turkish Sign Language (TID) TID signers (n=12; 3 females, 9 males; age range: 18-50; all native Deaf signers) are asked to give spatial descriptions. (a) (b) (c) (d) Figure 3. Testing item samples. earik@purdue.edu 9
10 On the basis of the SR hypothesis I hypothesized that there is no one-to-one correspondence between the locational and orientational information in the picture and that of the signing space in TID descriptions. As I expected I found mismatches between the input information and the description. Percentages Match 68 Mismatch 32 Table 2. Percentages of overall correspondences between the actual scene and the description. A logistic model with repeated measures shows that probability of match and mismatch is not dependent on locational or orientational information (p>.05). earik@purdue.edu 10
11 Perspective is not marked with the lexical items. There is no use of lexical items such as LEFT, RIGHT, FRONT, and BACK or in the predicate. TID signers employ intrinsic+relative since the linguistic forms, i.e. classifiers, encode locative-relational and inherent features of the objects with respect to each other, and intrinsic reference frames, i.e when there is mismatch. There was no description with either relative or absolute frame of reference taken. 11
12 Example: CAR {H1} CAR-LOC=LEFT & ORI=RIGHT {H2} CAR-LOC=RIGHT & ORI=RIGHT Two cars, trucks, are located on the lateral axis and oriented toward right. CAR {H1}CAR-LOC=PROX& ORI=AWAY {H2}CAR-LOC=DISTAL&ORI=AWAY Two cars, trucks, are located on the sagittal axis and oriented away from me. 12
13 The TID spatial descriptions are not the exact copies of the locational and orientational information in the testing items. These findings support the SR hypothesis. According to this, SR specifies axial information, i.e. vectors such as x, y, and z, and reference frames such as intrinsic, relative, and absolute. 13
14 SR: {two things on x-axis; relative} SR: {two things on x-axis; intrinsic} CS: CS: TRUCK! [ ] " TRUCK! [ ] " ORIENT TOWARD ORIENT TOWARD LOC j LOC j TRUCK # BE AT TRUCK # BE AT ORIENT TOWARD ORIENT TOWARD LOC i LOC i BE AT BE AT earik@purdue.edu 14
15 Intrinsic Intrinsic & Intrinsic & Relative Absolute & Absolute Relative & Absolute Intrinsic Mopan Japanese, Kgalagadi, Yucatec, Guugu Hai//om Dutch Tamil, Tiriyo, Ewe, Yimithirr Turkish 1, ASL Tzeltal 3, Tigrinya 2, Arrernte, TID, HZJ Warrwa Table 3. A typology of (spatial) reference frames. 1 See Arik 2003 for the discussion on the Turkish reference frames. 2 See Arik (ms.) on Tigrinya locatives. 3 See Pederson (1994) for an extensive discussion of the Tzeltal absolute system. earik@purdue.edu 15
16 4. Temporal Relations A situation, which is F, is located in the timeline with respect to now, G. Crucially, now is also egocentric. An allocentric perspective is taken when ego position is not relevant in the descriptions. For example, when a temporal encoding of a sentence comes from context but not an overt morphological marking with respect to now Temporal Frames of Reference Reference Egocentric vs. Origin Relation Type Frames Allocentric Intrinsic Situation Binary Allocentric Relative Ego & Now Ternary Egocentric Absolute earik@purdue.edu 16
17 Table 4. The temporal reference frames. There is no (temporal) absolute reference frame:! dates are not fixed points rather they are defined according to ego s now. For example, both on May 5 I will go to Chicago and on May 5 I went to Chicago are acceptable.! even with the years when the reference point is not available then it can be in the past or future. Right now is future for me but for the reader it is probably past.! there is neither nor the ultimate end.! the distinction between past and non-past is also a developmental issue. For example, according to Friedman (2005), young children make mistakes in distinguishing whether an event happened in the past or is going to happen in the future. earik@purdue.edu 17
18 4.2. Temporal Relations in Turkish Sign Language (TID) Clear correlation in the formation of spatial and temporal terms in the front-back axis in signing (=body) space. BEFORE YESTERDAY BEHIND NOW TODAY HERE AFTER TOMORROW THERE 18
19 When some of these signs are used to modify time expressions, there is again a correlation in terms of the use of signing space. TWO DAY BEFORE two days ago TWO WEEK BEFORE two weeks ago TWO DAY AFTER two days later TWO WEEK AFTER two weeks later But the names of hours, days, months, seasons, and years are not correlated with respect to space. I also observed that there is no overt tense marker in TID. I SCHOOL GO I went to the school I SCHOOL GO I will go to the school earik@purdue.edu 19
20 !Nonsentential time expressions are essentially modifiers of t when deictically motivated/lexicalized time expressions are in use a combination of intrinsic and relative reference frames is employed in TR. TR: {axial information: t; reference frame: intrinsic+relative} CS!In the use of other nonsentential time expressions, the reference frame is always intrinsic since there is no reference to viewer s perspective. TR: {axial information: t; reference frame: intrinsic} CS!In event sequences, previous utterance (G) refers to the event that happens before the following utterance (F) without any use of temporal adverbials. Intrinsic frame of reference no reference to ego s perspective. TR: {axial information: t; reference frame: intrinsic} CS earik@purdue.edu 20
21 5. Implications for the Theory of Language Templates for SR and TR SR: {axial information, i.e. x, y, z, ; reference frame : intrinsic, relative, absolute} CS TR: {axial information: t; reference frame: intrinsic, relative} CS earik@purdue.edu 21
22 1. space and time relationship is preserved. 2. an underlying (abstract) mechanism, i.e. frames of reference, for both space and time. 3. the current study provides evidence for the perspective taking, reference point, etc. not only in the temporal domain but also in the spatial domain. 4. the current approach does not neglect the lexical items that do not occur in both domains. 5. not only accounts for temporal adverbials but also tense. Hence, it captures temporality. 6. a multi-modular perspective and claims about the representations not only in language but also in the other domains of cognition. 7. predictions in that both spatial and temporal information should be represented in cognition but not necessarily in language. Thus, languages may not encode temporality in their morphology and they differ from each other in representing space. earik@purdue.edu 22
23 6. Conclusion This study presents a new approach to develop a cognitive analysis to understand both space and time in the theory of language and more specifically in a language that uses visual modality, i.e. Turkish Sign Language (TID). By using the same mechanism, i.e. frames of reference, I account for spatial and temporal relations in TID. earik@purdue.edu 23
