Vocabulary & Grammar
TIME TRANSITIONS
Unit 13
Pauses
• This is the most common type of transition.
At the end of an event nod your head slightly,
pause your signing, then raise your head to
signal the beginning of the next event.
SignWriting here
Unit 13
Dependent or “when” clauses
• This transition happens at the beginning of a
sentence and explains when an event happened.
This is a time/topic-comment structure, so the
eyebrows raise and the head nods downward for
the “when” portion, then the eyebrows flatten
and head raises during the event explanation.
Use this transition to tell about the following:
1. Age (When I was 5, I started school.)
2. Preceding event (After graduation, I started working)
3. Year of event (In 1985, he passed away)
Unit 13
Time signs indicating a period of time
• Use NMS with the later-on sign to show the
relative amount of time passed.
Later-on, some-time-later
Short time later
Medium time later
