| Research Abstract |
In sign linguistics, Eccarius & Brentari(2007) advocate that the symmetry and dominance constraints(Battison 1978) are applied not only to the two-handed lexical items, but also to the two-handed classifiers, whereas Aronoff et al.(2003) advocate that they aren' t applied to the two-handed classifiers. I analyze the two-handed lexical items and classifiers of Sri Lankan Sign Language in terms of distribution of the phonological properties. The data demonstrate that both of the two-handed lexical items and classifiers follow the two constraints. It supports the theory of Eccarius & Brentari(2007).
