Rose Stamp; Duaa Omar-Hajdawood; Rama Novogrodsky – Sign Language Studies, 2024
Reiterative code-switching, when one lexical item from one language is produced immediately after a semantically equivalent lexical item in another language, is a frequent phenomenon in studies of language contact. Several spoken language studies suggest that reiteration functions as a form of accommodation, amplification (emphasis),…

Katherine Rowley; Kearsy Cormier – Multilingua: Journal of Cross-Cultural and Interlanguage Communication, 2024
The distinction between natural sign languages and sign-supported speech is a controversial topic and difficult to assess purely on structural terms because of language contact.

Emily Kecman; John S. Knox – Australian Review of Applied Linguistics, 2025
Parents of children who are deaf or hard-of-hearing (D/HH) need clear and complete information about early intervention options. There is a body of research on parents' reactions to, and perceptions of, information they encountered following their child's diagnosis, but little research examining the information itself. This paper reports on a…

Scott Walsh – Odyssey: New Directions in Deaf Education, 2024
Senses, specifically sight and hearing, are the mechanisms through which we access and navigate our everyday lives, and use of language is the cornerstone of how we connect. For students who are deaf or hard of hearing, barriers to access and inability to effectively use language within an environment can have significant impacts. Accessibility…

Play, while complex, is essential for children's learning and development. It is well established in the literature that there is a strong link between children's pretend play abilities and their language skills, particularly in relation to the use of language in social contexts. For many children who are deaf and hard of hearing (DHH), pretend…

Krause, Christina M. – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2023
Research on language in mathematics education is largely dominated by a 'normalcy' of spoken languages. This modal hegemony does not only affect a whole group of learners in failing to provide access that is epistemologically equitable--those using sign language as their preferred mode for mathematical discourse--it also obscures our view on the…

All parents of deaf or hard of hearing children face challenges as they strive to provide an environment rich in language for their child.

This paper discusses methodologies for examining the multilingual language experiences of young deaf children that are sensitive to different cultural contexts of childhood, caregiving and language practices. We argue that in the context of early support, the combined use of situated multilingual and multimodal approaches to examine and assess…
