This research study analyses and describes the phonological and morphological structure of number signs in Chinese Sign Language including cardinal and ordinal numbers, fractions, and numeral-incorporated forms. This study shows that the one-handed number signs and quantifiers offer a great advantage to CSL phonology and morphology, as they enable a high level of flexibility of articulation and possibilities for incorporation.
