AB - The purpose of this paper is to discuss the motivation of sign language in Korean and Chinese based on the construal theory of cognitive linguistics and reveal their common points and different points. In sign language the expression would be different according to the different cognitive subject, that is to say, because of the different construal way in different language the expression would be different. The cognitive discussion for sign language hasn’t done much and there were little contrastive analysis between Korean and Chinese for vocabularies of sign language. In this paper, the vocabularies related to ‘Animals’, ‘Fruits·Vegetables’, ‘Sports’ were selected to study the construction, forms and motivations among meanings and investigate how the users of the sign language construe them. The results showed that similarly with the articulatory phonetics there was motivation between the forms and the motivations in sign language. However, the process of formation in different language was obviously different. According to the research of this paper, Korean sign language tended to dynamic construal but static construal for Chinese sign language.
