Yet PSE is a form of signing used by many hearing people for interacting with deaf people and thus is a commonly encountered dialect of ASL, and it is worth examining for a variety of reasons: a although PSE has been classified as a pidgin language, it differ from most spoken pidgins in important ways; b an examination of PSE can expand our understanding of ASL and the impact of modality on its syntax; and c a direct comparison of PSE and ASL may reveal features that are important to students and teachers of sign language who want more clarity and fluency.
Pidgins Pidgins are classically defined as languages that and PSE. Pidgins generally have a narrow but usually well-defined social context and no native speakers A pidgin is further characterized by DeCamp as having a limited vocabulary, missing many grammatical devices of the parent languages e.
Bickerton quoted in Giv6n has extended the description by stating that pidgins have no stable grammar. American Sign Language : " love " The sign for " love " is made by crossing both hands over the middle of your chest. Someone who signs SEE fluently signs every word in an English sentence.

Words that do not carry information e. This means that the signer can easily speak while signing, since it is possible to keep pace with spoken English. SEE is based upon signs drawn from ASL and expanded with words, prefixes, tenses, and endings to give a clear and complete visual presentation of English.
The child thus has an opportunity to develop an expanded vocabulary. The learning of this English based sign system may be more comfortable for English-speaking parents. Maximum use of residual hearing and speech-reading is encouraged since the signs match the elements of spoken English. I am going to do some additional research about this, because from what I understand, SEE and PSE can indeed help a deaf children learn to read and write better.
When used as a main communication method… SEE does not actually help deaf children learn to read and write. SEE is actually a modality of English, but does not actually represent a full language. ASL is a full language. SEE helps children understand sentence structure of English, but as an every day communication method, it is too cumbersome and does not actually give full access to language.
When used as a main communication method, SEE can actually hinder true language development, as many people who use SEE actually revert to PSE, which is not a language at all.
To learn another language, people must have a solid foundation on a language, deaf kids who know ASL as their main language then are taught English through reading and writing can benefit from the use of SEE at those specific times, but it was never designed to actually be used as a main communication tool, only to assist in English proficiency, and during times that English is being taught.
Does that clear things up? This definitely clear things up and makes sense. Can you provide me with a link to the data that supports this?
