English to Spanish: Clasificadores General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: Linguistics
Source text - English Classifiers (currently also called 'depicting handshapes'), are observed in almost all sign languages studied to date and form a well-researched topic in sign language linguistics. Yet, these elements are still subject to much debate with respect to a variety of matters. Several different categories of classifiers have been posited on the basis of their semantics and the linguistic context in which they occur. The function(s) of classifiers are not fully clear yet. Similarly, there are differing opinions regarding their structure and the structure of the signs in which they appear. Partly as a result of comparison to classifiers in spoken languages, the term ‘classifier’ itself is under debate. In contrast to these disagreements, most studies on the acquisition of classifier constructions seem to consent that these are difficult to master for Deaf children. This article presents and discusses all these issues from the viewpoint that classifiers are linguistic elements.
Translation - Spanish En la mayoría de las lenguas de señas estudiadas a la fecha, se puede observar la presencia de clasificadores (también llamados «configuraciones manuales descriptivas»), un tema bastante investigado en la lingüística de la lengua de señas. Aun así, por diversas razones, estos elementos continúan siendo objeto de mucho debate. Se han postulado distintas categorías de clasificadores considerando cuestiones semánticas y el contexto lingüístico en el que ocurren. Sin embargo, su función (o funciones) sigue sin ser del todo clara. Asimismo, existen distintas opiniones respecto a su estructura y a la estructura de las señas en las que aparecen. Incluso se debate el término «clasificador» y esto se debe, en parte, a la comparación que se ha hecho con los clasificadores de las lenguas orales. En contraste con estos desacuerdos, en la mayoría de los estudios sobre la adquisición de las construcciones clasificadoras parece aceptarse que los niños Sordos tienen problemas para dominarlas. En este artículo se presentarán y abordarán todos estos temas desde el punto de vista de que los clasificadores son elementos lingüísticos.

Translation is complex and dynamic. It implies more than merely conveying a message in a different language. It requires professionalism, competence and the power to decide what is best for your client’s needs. Thanks to my academic training, I am a professional and competent translator capable of translating a wide variety of texts and suiting your needs.
My areas of expertise include technical and journalistic translation about computer sciences, computing and information technologies (IT).
I am also quite passionate about languages and teaching. It is this passion what drove me to the world of education and now I am proud to say I have been teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) for over two years. Mainly, I teach ESL to children and English for Specific Purposes (ESP) to adults.
