This paper is one of the first publications about Georgian sign language (GESL) and its intend is to focus attention to this language. The data of GESL has never been taken into consideration in typological research of sign languages. GESL was closely connected with common Soviet sign language and was partly based on the Russian system. However, the process of nationalization has begun everywhere in post-Soviet regions and their sign languages are reintegrating. Each post-Soviet country has undertaken research on its own national sign language, and the scientific researches of their own national sign languages are performed in these countries This paper attempts to explain the verb agreement and the polypersonal verbal categories of version and causation in Georgian sign language. These two categories are closely connected with verbal polypersonalism and the opposition forms of these categories recall the changes of verbal valency. The same morphological categories have influence on verbal polypersonalism in spoken Georgian as well. The spatial system of GESL has the directional markers of causation and objective version, and the vectors of the markers for these two categories are oriented towards the indirect object. The existence of such sign markers frees the word order in sentences of this language, therefore strict argument order is not a mandatory in GESL.
