Abstract:
This article addresses some of the theoretical questions, ethical considerations,
and methodological decisions that guided the creation
of the Kata Kolok corpus as well as the Kata Kolok child signing
corpus. This discussion is relevant to the formation of prospective sign
corpora that aim to portray the various sociolinguistic landscapes in
which sign languages, whether rural or urban, emerge and evolve.
