Abstract
Cross-signing – the emergence of an interlanguage between users of different sign languages – offers a rare chance to examine the evolution of a natural communication system in real time. Here using an annotated video corpus of 340 minutes, we focus on the evolution of shared colour terms over the initial weeks of first encounters and examine the role of different selectional pressures – of frequency, content, coordination and interactional context. We show that attentional factors in interaction play a crucial role.
