Abstract

This chapter discusses various methods of notating sign forms, focusing on the manual aspect of signing, for which the largest number of different systems has been proposed. It also discusses how notation and transcription can aid present-day researchers that make use of multimodal annotation tools to directly time-link text to videos. The chapter determines how phonetic transcription and other types of notation may be used in the present context of the availability of large sign language corpora to researchers and the general public, and it includes practical suggestions and references to studies that have followed certain methodologies. It focuses on various ways in which a basic annotation of a corpus in terms of glosses and sentence-level translations can be enriched with representations of aspects of the form of signs using notation methods that have been developed for other purposes.
