The following study addresses the question whether slips of the tongue (Frankfurter Versprecherkorpus) alter the phonological complexity of the targeted demisyllables. The analysis is based on Clements' (1990) phonological theory, in which the markedness of demisyllables is calculated on the basis of major class features and syllabic positions of the respective phonemes. The analysis of the slips of the tongue showed no significant asymmetry. The erroneous as well as the intended demisyllables did not differ in their phonological complexity. Furthermore, slip repairs are insensitive to phonological complexity. Even for phonological paraphasias phonological complexity is not a critical feature. In this respect they behave like slips of the tongue. On the contrary, so-called abstruse neologisms produced by aphasic patients are mostly constructed with unmarked demisyllables. To explain this difference, we refer to a modified language production model by Buckingham (1990). In contrast to slips and paraphasias, a language processing component that is underused after language acquisition is completed is activated during the production of abstruse neologisms due to lexical blocking. This sublexical component, the so-called random generator, fills the syllable positions in such a way that demisyllables of low phonological complexity are generated.

In this paper, we compare some aspects of language production and monitoring by looking at two different languages, Spoken German and German Sign Language. These languages use differ-ent modalities, the acoustic/articulatory modality in Spoken Ger-man and the visual/gestural modality in German Sign Language. The empirical evidence is based on slips of the tongue and the hand. We begin by presenting some relevant components of German Sign Language, especially the phonological and mor-phological/morphosyntactic components. The crucial questions which need to be answered in this context relate to the interplay of language typology and modality, focusing especially on the as-tonishingly close interaction of morphological and phonological processes in German Sign Language. In order to address these questions, we look at two particular error categories, namely blends and fusions. A puzzle with respect to the apparent viola-tion of a processing principle, known as the shift-down principle, in German Sign Language, is resolved by invoking typological and modality differences.

... Although the cause of language diffi culties is completely different, some similarities between second language learners and students with hearing loss do exist. This may be the case for (profoundly) deaf students with GSL as their fi rst language, which among others distinctly differs in terms of grammar from the German language (Leuninger and Happ 2005 ). According to the teachers, reporting on experiments poses a challenge for DHH students due to linguistic diffi culties. ...

... While recent work on SLG has progressed [40,57,64,94,130,137], these systems typically take a generic view of signing, often overlooking sign language nuances, including the role of nonmanual markers. To address these challenges, we prototype a modular ASL generation system designed to produce automated signing by simultaneously focusing on technical improvements, user perceptions, and the unique linguistic structure of ASL. ...

... In an extensive research program on the comparison of slips of the hand in DGS and slips of the tongue in spoken German, we have tried to assess the impact of modality on language production Keller et al. 2003;Leuninger et al. 2004Leuninger et al. , 2005Leuninger et al. , 2007. Our main results support the conclusions in the above paragraph with respect to the role of UG and to modality and typological differences. ...

... " (Meringer & Mayer 1895: 9) 5 The above quote can be seen as an early formulation of the third motivation for doing speech error research: the effort to investigate linguistic rules and processes that are active in language production. In fact, spontaneous errors played an increasingly important role in psycholinguistic attempts to construct linguistic performance models (Lashley 1951;Bierwisch 1970Bierwisch /1982Fromkin 1971;Garrett 1975Garrett , 1976Garrett , 1980aGarrett , 1988Garrett , 1990Garrett , 1993Shattuck-Hufnagel 1979;Butterworth 1982;Leuninger 1987). The crucial question motivating this endeavour is: What kinds of (possibly ordered) processes mediate between a communicative intention and the articulation of an utterance? ...

There is another longitudinal case study byLeuninger and Happ (1997), who investigated the DGS development of a late-learning Deaf child of hearing parents who was first educated orally before having access to DGS through weekly home instruction in DGS from 3;7.

... The status of classifiers as lexical items is controversial and there are different approaches to them (see Emmorey, 2003). Furthermore, studies on errors in German Sign Language (DGS) production (Leuninger et al., 2007) suggest that the bipartition of the mental lexicon into a lemma and a lexeme component seems to be valid for both language modalities (for spoken languages ). For example, in Spanish and LSU, (Light table) is constituted by the lemma mesa (table) and the lexeme luz (light). ...

... In Table 1, I give a summary of the relevant processing di¤erences between signed and spoken languages, as we have characterized them for our analysis of language production di¤erences between DGS and spoken German (Hohenberger et al. 2002;Leuninger et al. 2004;Leuninger et al. 2005). 1 The first two di¤erences -the processing modality and the articulators -pertain to the Phonetic Form (PF)-level. They are objectively assessable and can be characterized by physical and physiological/ anatomical parameters. ...
