Understanding systems of language
apply features of Auslan sign production including handshape, orientation, location and movement (HOLM), and non-manual features (NMFs), and show how these are represented in familiar and some unfamiliar contexts
Elaborations
- AC9L1AU10EU01_E1applying fluid patterns of fingerspelling
- AC9L1AU10EU01_E2using the various types and functions of NMFs, such as movements of the eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth, cheeks, shoulders and body, to convey effective meaning in real or simulated scenarios, for example, in a class presentation or class debate on a favourite topic
- AC9L1AU10EU01_E3modifying pace for emphasis when presenting personal views on a topic of interest
- AC9L1AU10EU01_E4modifying dominant and non-dominant hands for effect or using one hand only to convey the same meaning as the original 2-hand sign
- AC9L1AU10EU01_E5using NMFs to modify verbs when enacting different types of movements, for example, tip-toe versus stomp
- AC9L1AU10EU01_E6<p>applying knowledge of iconicity, for example, how the path movement of a verb can show the timing of an action, for example, </p><p class="ausltrans">PRO1 WAIT DS:FAST-REPEAT PRO2</p><p>, observing that English can do the same with changes to the length of words, for example, <em>I've been waiting a loooooong time for you</em></p>
- AC9L1AU10EU01_E7recognising multi-channel signs and showing that some signs can occur with a standard mouth gesture
- AC9L1AU10EU01_E8recognising that some signs can occur with mouth morphemes to indicate manner and adjectives
- AC9L1AU10EU01_E9noticing compound signs that use both body anchored and non-body-anchored signs together to create new meaning
