All sign languages examined so far allow for classifying verbs, but the exact status of this word formation process has been a matter of some debate. We shall consider the different options - lexical vs. syntactic word formation - and claim that for German Sign Language a syntactic analysis is more promising, i.e. we take classification to be an instance of inflection. As we will show, such an analysis is reasonable not only on theoretical grounds, but is supported by empirical data, too.
