  • dc.description.abstract To date, there is no accurate, consistent term typology for Catalan Sign Language (LSC). Aiming to contribute to the normalization of a minority language and to provide a new lexical approach to terminology in LSC, this thesis offers a proposal of term typology in LSC. We address this topic with a description and an analysis of an LSC corpus, which we have constituted manually by different video resources of two specialized domains: the administrative and the technical domain. Our proposal is based on previous literature on sign and spoken languages and it is formed by 10 big classes; namely, prefixation, compounding, loanwords, abbreviation, mouthings, classifiers, semantic changes, simplex specialized signs, lexicalization and others. We show that the fundamental theoretical principles of terminology and lexicon work in a similar way across sign and spoken languages. However, due to the visual-gestural modality some specific features need to be considered with particular reference to sign languages.ca
