Abstract
This article aims to describe the main resources for word-formation in Catalan Sign Language (LSC), taking as starting point the typology of formal, semantic, functional and external resources. We argue that word-formation in LSC is a constructional process that rests on structures of different degree of specificity (structural schemes and low-level patterns), as well as analogy-based processes that use other lexical units. The analysis shows that lexicon, morphology and syntaxform a continuum in LSC.
