TOVAR, Lionel Antonio e LOPEZ, Lorenzo. Hypothesis in Colombian Sign Language (LSC). Leng. [online]. 2021, vol.49, n.2, pp.231-274. Epub 07-Jul-2021. ISSN 0120-3479. https://doi.org/10.25100/lenguaje.v49i2.6524.
This article continues the exploration of academic language functions in the Colombian Sign Language (LSC), initiated by the authors in previous articles. The purpose of the study is to describe the structure of hypothesis in LSC as it appears in texts produced by Deaf informants during metalinguistic discussions raised from written texts of hypothesis in Spanish. First, the system of probability modalization is presented along with its lexico-grammatical structure in Spanish and the role of gesture in its expression. Then probability modalization in LSC is presented and examples are given of hypothesis texts produced by the signers, to illustrate and analyze the lexico-grammar of this function.
