Uporabniki jezikov z glasovno-slušnim prenosnikom se pri zaznavi jezikovnih izrazov osredotočajo na fonološke oznake glasov in ne na njihove jezikovno nerelevantne značilnosti, ki lahko variirajo med ...drugim glede na spol, starost in čustveno ali zdravstveno stanje govorca. Na enak način izražanje v svojem jeziku zaznavajo uporabniki jezikov z gibalno-vidim prenosnikom, čeprav so fonološke oznake v teh jezikih posredovane z drugimi fizikalnimi količinami, kot smo jih vajeni jezikoslovci - in so posledično slabše raziskane. V članku so z metodo minimalnih parov predstavljene fonološke oznake iz štirih naravnih razredov (gibanja, oblike dlani, mesta kretanja in mimike) ter njihove funkcije (razlikovalna, odvisna in prosta oznaka) v slovenskem znakovnem jeziku (SZJ).
Background: Deaf users of Slovenian Sign Language vary in competence between L1, delayed L1 and L2. They follow the grammatical patterns of their language but are unaware of them because the language ...is neither linguistically documented nor systematically used in the classroom. As a result, the available learning and teaching materials are inadequately prepared in many aspects.
Purpose: The aim of this research was to create a reference grammar of SZJ by (i) using SZJ for metalinguistic descriptions and (ii) training Deaf signers as researchers and teachers. We observed their performance in order to answer the research question of whether it is possible to involve Deaf signers in the process of creating and disseminating a sign language reference grammar.
Method: Training a group of deaf L1 signers to (i) start systematic research of their language within a selected formal approach, (ii) create didactic video materials for learning/teaching Slovenian Sign Language as L1 and L2, and (iii) use these materials in language courses for L1 and L2 deaf signers.
Results: Eleven deaf L1 signers were trained as researchers in a 40-hour course. Five deaf and two hearing L1 signers were trained as language teachers in another 40-hour course and then presented the core concepts of Slovenian Sign Language grammar to 302 members of 12 local Slovenian deaf clubs in 24 editions of a 40-hour language course. For the presentations, they used didactic video materials (duration 5:46 hours). These materials were produced by the five L1 signers and later uploaded to two freely accessible online video platforms.
Conclusion: The approach proved fruitful: signers were actively involved in the creation and dissemination of the first Slovenian Sign Language reference grammar. The available analytics show that the materials are continuously viewed by both deaf and hearing users.
Minority languages are often given less importance than national languages, especially when the languages differ in their modalities. In addition, the hearing majority often do not recognise sign ...languages, leading to prejudice and discrimination against them. Apart from the theoretical relevance of the study of sign languages for linguistic research, linguistic studies have proved crucial in reducing the social and cultural isolation of Deaf communities. At the same time, the specific sociolinguistics of sign languages must be considered when conducting such linguistic research. This paper presents relevant background information that needs to be considered when conducting research on the grammar of Slovenian Sign Language (SZJ), as well as the research topics in SZJ linguistics that have been addressed in recent decades.

Long COVID provides a new context in which primary health care needs to be re-examined, especially because it has health and social dimensions. Primary care physicians' experiences and perceptions of ...caring for patients with long COVID are an underexplored area.
To explore the experiences of Slovenian primary care physicians in management and treatment of patients with long COVID.
A qualitative interview study of physicians in Slovenian primary care.
Semi-structured interviews were held with physicians who had treated patients with long COVID until saturation was reached. The interviews were carried out between November 2021 and April 2022. Qualitative content analysis (QCA) was used to analyse the data collected.
Seventeen participants were interviewed. The following five categories were defined based on the coding process: the definition and symptoms of long COVID; social exclusion; sick leave and returning to the work environment; cooperation with rehabilitation centres; and the importance of trust and good communication with the patient.
The study showed the experiences of Slovenian primary care physicians in the management and treatment of long COVID. The problems related to long COVID were divided into two groups: health problems and psychosocial problems. Slovenian physicians have the greatest problems with dealing with the patient's ability to work. It was found that adequate communication and trust between physicians and patients are two important indicators for an integrated model of managing long COVID.
