Abstract

The paper is devoted to the study of configuration as a structural component of the sign in the Ukrainian Sign Language along with localization, direction and character of the movement. The article is a logical continuation of  the author's analytical studies in the field of structural linguistics on issues of the signs formation (2008, 2010). In the structural analysis of natural sign units the number of configurations in the Ukrainian Sign Language as a sign system are defined and specified from 39 to 40, in comparison with the quantitative indicators of other national Sign Languages, the kinetic features of which were studied earlier. Each configuration with the provision of a drawing image as a basis and a configuration variant is explored. A description of the basic configuration is presented in detail with examples of single-handed and two-handed sign units application. The structural analysis made it possible to understand the features of the configuration location, including the position of the palm (fist), the direction of the finger (fingers), supported by the attached drawings and photos of  both single-handed simple (or complex) and two-handed (complex) signs. The study of this issue is important for the theory of the Ukrainian Sign Language structural linguistics and for the practice of using the signs in solving the social problems (the Ukrainian Sign Language interpretation), educational tasks in the modern system of education the deaf and hard of hearing people in Ukraine.
