Speakers gesturally indicate and depict with their arms and hands as they speak, but it appears that signers cannot do this because their arms and hands are occupied with articulating signs. This book demonstrates that signers do indicate and depict, by incorporating non-lexical gestures into their articulations of individual signs.
