Abstract: Interactional linguistics is one of the important directions of the functionalism recently, the combination of its interaction concept and the real-time interactivity of particles will definitely make a difference. This paper aims to explore the way to combine interactional linguistics with traditional usage-based Chinese research, and strives to bring new insights to the Chinese particles. Meanwhile, it broadens the research horizon and provides methodological implications for topics that have not received sufficient attention under the traditional grammar framework, but are of great significance to understanding the essence of grammar. In addition, through the investigation of particles in interaction, the interactional linguistics are developed, and the understanding of grammar emerging in interaction is deepened.Abstract: Interactional linguistics is one of the important directions of the functionalism recently, the combination of its interaction concept and the real-time interactivity of particles will definitely make a difference.

Abstract: Research of Sign Language as an independent language began with William Stockoe (1960)'s study of American Sign Language. Applying linguistic frameworks to American Sign Language, he confirmed that Sign Language meets linguistic standards in phonetics, syntax, etc. Sign Linguistics has become an important branch of linguistics as his theory has been fully established by other sign languages. The study of Chinese Sign Language is relatively in the incubation stage now. In this paper, I outline the current situation of the study on Chinese Sign Language, thus expanding the scope of Chinese linguistics. The study of Chinese Sign Language itself will deepen the understanding of human natural language and also improve the understanding of Spoken Chinese through comparative studies with Spoken Chinese. Furthermore, a comparative study between Chinese Sign Language and other sign languages is expected in the future.Abstract: Research of Sign Language as an independent language began with William Stockoe (1960)'s study of American Sign Language.
