From this page, you can access digitized QuickTime movies exemplifying the grammatical ASL utterances cited in NKBAM 1997, as signed by native signers. There are 64 movie files in all, which together require about 70MB of disk space. A pdf file containing the glossed examples and links to the appropriate movie files is provided as a means to readily access the examples.
In order to make use of the files provided here, you must have QuickTime (www.apple.com/quicktime) and Acrobat Reader 3.0 or later (www.adobe.com/acrobat), which are available for both Macintosh and non-Macintosh platforms.
To download the materials, first download the pdf file and then the set of movie files that you are interested in. If you have a fast connection to the Internet and would like to download all the movie files at once, you can use an ftp program (like Fetch or Anarchie) to perform a multiple download of all the movies in our online digital library in one operation. By anonymous ftp, connect to "schiller.dartmouth.edu/pub/ASL/movies/" (or "louis-xiv.bu.edu/pub/asl/movies/"). From there, you can select all (or some subset) of the files and perform a "multiple get." (Note that if you select all the movie files, you will also get movies that are cited in other works, in addition to the ones cited in NKBAM 1997; these movie files can then be used in conjunction with similar pdf documents provided for other ASLLRP publications.) Otherwise, you can download the movie files one at a time from this page, using the links below.
These materials are also available on CD-ROM at cost. For further information, send email to carol@louis-xiv.bu.edu.
Before you download: If your browser is configured to view pdf and/or QuickTime files via a plug-in, you will need to option-click (Macintosh) or right-click (non-Macintosh) on the links in order to download the file to your local system.

NOTE: If you are using Aladdin's Stuffit Expander software, please make sure you are using a recent version. (If you are using Stuffit Expander 4.5 for Macintosh, make sure its preferences are set to not perform any cross-platform conversion on text files. If conversion is performed, the pdf files will become corrupted; see http://www.aladdinsys.com/support/techsupport/mac/dlx/dlx9.html.) |
Download the movie files: The table below lists the examples (in gloss form) for which movies are available. Click on the movie icon(s) next to the example to download the movie(s) (multiple icons indicate that multiple sample movies are available; in some cases, the example is signed by more than one native signer). In some cases, the sample movie may contain vocabulary that is different from the cited example (i.e., a different name, a different noun, etc.); however, the movie still serves to illustrate the relevant construction.
Note that in order for the links within the pdf file to the example movies to function correctly, the movie files must be located in a subfolder/directory named "movies"; the "movies" directory and this document should be located in the same folder/directory.
