A special thank from the research team to the participants of the Marqspat project. Without their generous contribution, the production of the videos would have been impossible. / L’équipe de recherche tient à remercier tout particulièrement es participants au projet Marqspat. Sans leur généreuse contribution, la production des vidéos auraient été impossible. These dataset in video format is to illustrate examples of the data directly which are cited in the chapter of the same title published in the book [Title to come]. Those videos are used to present a portrait of the use of enactment in sign and spoken discourses for LSQ (L1 and L2), ASL (L1), and French (L1) discourses and are drawn from the Projet Marqspat corpus under the auspices of Groupe de recherche sur la LSQ et le bilinguisme sourd, at Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM). The data used in this chapter were collected through a SSHRC project (regular grant) from 2011 to 2015, entitled " Étude de la variation de forme et de sens dans la réalisation du marquage spatial pour trois langues des signes". Projet Marqspat is a corpus of spoken/signed data produced in four languages (LSQ, ASL, English and French) where all participants were exposed to the same elicitation conditions,including a four-hour test aimed at the production of specific morphosyntactic, semantic and discursive structures within an elicitation setting. All participants were exposed to forty-four video sketches without use of language presenting different scenarios produced by actors. These were calibrated to elicit the linguistic expression of different concepts (quantity, point of view, etc.) and of different types of events such as descriptive or narrative events (Parisot et al. 2008; Parisot and Saunders 2019). The discourse data were collected from five groups of signers/speakers, with three participants in each group:
- Deaf signers using LSQ as L1
- Deaf signers using LSQ L2 but as have ASL as L1
- Deaf signers using LSQ as L2 but use spoken French as L1
- Deaf signers using ASL as L1
- Non-deaf Quebec French speakers as L1
