A certain portion of the descriptions in Section [1.1] and the majority of descriptions in Sections [1.2], [1.3], and [1.4] are based on original research by the author. The data that contributed to this research have been provided by two near-native fluent signers. The analyses are based on 899 signs from Boğaziçi University TİD Resource Website (cmpe.boun.edu.tr/tid). The signs in the website were revised by a near-native fluent signer who was born and raised in Istanbul.
Additionally, the linguistic data in images and video clips that were produced or reproduced for this chapter were provided by a near-native fluent signing consultant who was born and raised in Istanbul.
