"The Writing of Grammatical Non-Manual
Expressions in Sentences in LIBRAS Using

ABSTRACT 

This research investigates the written form of non-manual expressions (ENM) in sign language, drawing on research by Ferreira-Brito (1995), Quadros and Karnopp (2004), Stumpf (2005) and Quadros, Pizzio and Rezende (2008). It discusses the visual-spatial nature of sign language, describing its parameters as a way to consider ENM. It then focusses explicitly on the system of SignWriting, more specifically the symbols for ENM. The method of data collection was to apply two written tests with students on the Brazilian Sign Language Studies course at the Federal University of Santa Catarina. In the first test, students were asked to connect columns in phrases that did not contain ENM symbols in the SignWriting system. In the second test, the symbols were present. Thus, it was possible to verify differences in understanding because of the existence or not of ENM in the system. The analysis and discussion considers the results from the tests, in which students were asked to connect the column showing which sentence category the written signs belonged to. These included affirmative, negative, interrogative Y/N (S/N), interrogative WH (QU), interrogative expressing doubt and suspicion, interrogative WH (QU) appearing in subordinate sentences without non-manuals, conditionals, constructions with topics or focus, and sentences expressed by the direction of gaze. A total of 45 questions with ENM and another 45 in the second test without ENM showed the number of errors and correct answers in both tests, demonstrating the need for the use of ENM symbols in SignWriting system. Generally, students made more errors in tests without ENM, whereas, there were more correct answers with ENM, indicating that the use of grammatical expressions symbols in writing is required. There may be other variables that have influenced this result, but nevertheless, we can infer that the data indicate the need for ENM usage in writing sign language.

RESUMO

Com o objetivo de investigar a escrita de Expressões Não Manuais- ENM em língua de sinais, este estudo fundamentou-se nas pesquisas de Ferreira-Brito (1995), Quadros e Karnopp (2004), Stumpf (2005) e Quadros, Pizzio e Rezende (2008). Aqui, discute-se o caráter espaço- visual da língua de sinais, apresentando seus parâmetros para, por fim, chegar às considerações das ENM. Em seguida, explicita-se o sistema de escrita de sinais, mais especificamente os símbolos de ENM. Os procedimentos metodológicos se constituíram na aplicação de dois testes de escrita com alunos do curso Letras Libras presencial da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. O primeiro e o segundo teste trataram da realização de atividades que propunham a relação entre colunas. No primeiro havia colunas com frases que continham os símbolos de ENM do sistema SignWriting. No segundo, essas frases não continham tais símbolos. Dessa forma, foi possível verificar a diferença na compreensão por conta da existência ou não das ENM no sistema. Nos testes, os alunos teriam que ligar a coluna indicando a que categoria de sentença a frase em escrita de sinais pertencia, como sentenças afirmativas, negativas, interrogativas S/N, interrogativas QU, interrogativas que expressam dúvida e desconfiança (pode ser sinalizada com uma ou duas mãos), interrogativas QU que aparecem em sentenças subordinadas sem a marcação não-manual interrogativa, condicionais, relativas, construções com tópico, construções com foco e sentenças expressas pela direção do olhar. Num total de 45 questões com ENM e 45 sem ENM foi feito um quantitativo de erros e acertos em ambos para indicar a necessidade do uso dos símbolos de ENM no sistema SignWriting. De modo geral, os alunos apresentaram mais erros nos testes sem ENM, enquanto que, tiveram muito mais acertos nos que havia ENM indicando, assim, que gramaticalmente é necessário o uso de símbolos de expressões na escrita. Pode haver outras variáveis que determinaram esse resultado, mas, se as desconsiderarmos, podemos inferir que os dados apontam para a necessidade de uso de ENM na escrita da língua de sinais.

Palavras-chave: Língua de sinais. Expressões faciais. Escrita de sinais. SignWriting.
