Dear Linguists,
Can anyone help me with references or publications about deaf children who have parents who do not speak English? The L1 of the child would be the 'other' language (i.e. Spanish), but the child would learn American Sign Language at school, and thereby communicate by signing or spelling English words. It seems a bit odd to refer to the primary communication method (ASL) of a deaf person as his or her L2, but it would not be the 'mother-tongue' per se. I'll post a summary if enough replies come in. Please respond to my e-mail address: mmelan2@tiger.lsu.edu Many thanks, Megan Melancon Louisiana State University |
