Abstract

The verb in Georgian Sign Language (GESL) has morphological means to convey the relevant meanings and forms of all verbal paradigms from spoken Georgian, although it is important, that GESL verbs do not repeat the paradigms of spoken Georgian. The only paradigm that GESL verbs may have is the combination of verbal-person forms, which appear with socalled incorporated verbs. These relations are kinetically expressed in GESL.

Keywords: Sign Language; Directions; Manual Kinetics; GESL; Verb
