In this paper, we investigate a grammaticalized facial expression in American Sign Language (ASL) called flat chin, which propose functions as general-purpose domain widener, targeting both quantificational domains well the scales used by gradable predicates. Our analysis allows for chin to target nearly any involving domain, and is based on Morzycki's (2012) of extreme degree modifiers. Such a...

This paper describes a case of mental nerve neuralgia following a traumatic dislodgement of a chin implant ten months after surgery. Our case is unusual, both in the specific complication and the patients' atypical representation-delayed and initially without mention of trauma. To the authors' knowledge, this case has not been reported previously in the literature. We review the complications o...

Present investigations provide baseline data on the distribution of morphogenetic traits: ear lobe attachment, nose tip and chin fissure; behavioural traits: hand clasping, arm folding, handedness, leg folding and tongue rolling among five endogamous groups of Haryana i.e. Kumhar, Nai, Luhar, Saini and Bania. Among these traits, hand clasping, leg folding and tongue rolling showed homogeneous d...
