摘要
Nouns and verbs that are semantically and formationally related are called noun-verb pairs. Noun-verb pairs are found both in spoken and signed languages. A debate has been raised as to whether the noun and the verb in the pairs are distinguished by syntactic environments or they have a morphological (derivational) relation. Based on the Taiwan Sign Language data we have collected, it was found that nouns and verbs are distinguished more systematically by syntactic environments. Modality effects and non-effects in word formation in spoken versus signed languages are also discussed with a special focus on the role of iconicity.
